"Our latest innovation not only enhances safety but also offers our clients a pre-colored orange resin, eliminating the need for in-press coloring and streamlining the manufacturing process."

The Amodel® PPA HFFR-4133 OR is hot water moldable and boasts a V0 rating, making it an ideal choice for high voltage automotive applications.

Syensqo is adding Amodel® PPA HFFR-4133 OR to a portfolio of battery solutions including Xencor™ LFT XTreme PPA LGF-1045 ECHO BP which was developed for components requiring thermal runaway protection and Amodel® PPA AE-8945 HFFR which was developed for high voltage pyrofuses.
