ECCOH™ Low Smoke and Fume Non-Halogen Formulations
https://www.avient.com/news/avient-introduces-durable-orange-nylon-colorants-high-voltage-electrical-vehicle-ev-connectors
Avient Introduces durable orange nylon colorants for High Voltage Electrical Vehicle (EV) Connectors, combining high heat and long-term color stability against fading in glass-filled PA6 and PA66 systems without compromising flame retardancy or mechanical performance.
Comparative testing between PA66-GF/FR without and with OnColor orange showed no impact on flame retardancy and limited adverse effects on essential mechanical characteristics, such as flexural and impact strength.
They meet a fast-growing demand in the EV market by combining excellent processability, high chromatic initial color, and little to no constraints on flame retardancy and electrical or mechanical properties.

Are UV protection and/or flame retardant packages available?
https://www.avient.com/products/long-fiber-technology/benefits-long-fiber-reinforced-thermoplastic-composites
Long glass fiber composites are safe to use in proximity with magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and computed tomography (CT or CAT) scan diagnostic equipment because of their non-magnetic and electrically insulative characteristics.
Flame Retardant – Increase product safety by including flame retardants to provide halogen-free fire resistant/smoke density/smoke toxicity (FST) and UL94 compliance.
