EV charging cable is an important part of EV charging, mainly responsible for transmitting power to the battery of EV. EV charging cable is generally used in charging stations, parking lots, hotels and other areas, and portable charging cable can even be placed directly in the car. There are three common sheath materials used in EV charging cables, namely PVC, TPE and TPU, and many friends are actually not familiar with these three materials.FAFA-E summarizes the characteristics of these three materials for your reference.
PVC is a kind of vinyl polymer, non-crystalline material, usually used in building materials, medicine and other industries. PVC has low cost, good mechanical and electrical properties, high elasticity, high toughness and wear resistance are its advantages. However, some poor quality PVC materials contain harmful substances and have safety risks when used in special environments. In a word, PVC cable has the characteristics of softness, random bending and folding, thin relative thickness, small volume and simple connection.
TPE, also called thermoplastic spring body, is a polymer material with lower cost and better elasticity and hardness. Advantages: good chemical resistance and oil resistance, good flexibility and wear resistance. Disadvantages: less robust, and lack of high temperature resistance, usually can not be used in the environment above 80 ° C for a long time.
TPU, also called polyurethane material, is a more recognized environmentally friendly material, widely used in automotive parts and footwear products, etc. It has good wear resistance, crack resistance, aging resistance and other properties, but the toughness is not enough.
When choosing EV charging cable, you need to understand the material first, and then judge how the performance of the cable of that material can meet the charging demand of electric vehicles. Of course, the premise of everything is to choose cables with guaranteed quality, for example, the EV charging cable products produced by Chinese cable manufacturer FAFA-E are good and of good quality.
FAFA-E has a strategic partnership with OMG, the world's leading EV cable manufacturer, to provide EV charging cables of various standards. If you have EV cable needs, please contact us at Sale@fafa-e.com
