Plastic compounds for electrical & electronics applications
Plastics are great electrical insulators, making them the ideal material to be used safely in electrical and electronics (E&E) applications. They are also durable, enabling E&E parts to last a long period of time and protecting them from impact, moisture, chemicals and environmental conditions. The capability of plastic to be molded into complex parts makes them useful for use in all kinds of housings, wiring, devices and connectors.
Find out more about our polymers for E&E applications, including recycled grades.
