DIC.PPS Materials for Electrification, Miniaturization and Thermal Reliability

Enabling Next-Generation Automotive, Electronics, and Energy Applications

As electrical systems become more powerful and compact, engineers and product development teams face increasing pressure to improve reliability, manage heat, enable miniaturization and optimize manufacturing efficiency.

DIC’s latest polyphenylene sulfide (PPS) solutions are designed to help solve critical challenges across automotive, electronics and infrastructure applications.

Key Advantages of New DIC.PPS Grades:

  • High CTI enables miniaturization and enhanced safety in high voltage components
  • Reduced cracking risk due to exceptional thermal shock resistance
  • Greater durability through enhanced mechanical performance
  • Stable molding and processability

Enabling High-Voltage Designs

DIC.PPS TX-2010-HV BLACK is a high-CTI PPS grade optimized for demanding high-voltage applications, offering:

  • CTI ≥600V, enabling up to 50% reduction in creepage distance
  • Increased strength and elongation at break, reducing cracking risks
  • Up to 50% reduction in outgassing for fewer molding defects and longer maintenance cycles
  • Good durability at 200°C (approximately 90% retention rate)

Thermal Reliability for Demanding Applications

Growing electrification requirements in automotive applications demand higher levels or reliability and durability of components.

DIC.PPS Z-650-MV has been engineered to achieve an optimal balance between CTI performance and thermal shock resistance.

  • CTI ≥200V performance with stable tracking resistance at practical levels
  • Outstanding thermal shock resistance for reduced cracking risks an improved component durability
  • Optimum balance between CTI performance and flowability for improved moldability in thin walls and complex parts, and stable processability
