SABIC to launch at APEC 2022 40% thinner ELCRES™ HTV150A film for further adoption of high-heat sic inverter technology for xEV

SABIC’s new 3-micron (µm) gauge ELCRES™ HTV150A dielectric film is 40 percent thinner than SABIC’s recently announced 5 µm film and may be used for capacitors in the traction inverters, onboard chargers and electrical compressors of hybrid, plug-in hybrid and battery electric vehicles (xEV). SABIC, a global leader in the chemical industry, will introduce at the 2022 Applied Power Electronics Conference (APEC) in booth #1718, a new, thinner gauge of its ELCRES™ HTV150A dielectric film which may be used for capacitors in the traction inverters, onboard chargers and electrical compressors of hybrid, plug-in hybrid and battery electric vehicles (xEV). The 3-micron (µm) film is 40 percent thinner than SABIC’s recently announced 5 µm film, enabling further volume and weight reductions and greater design flexibility through enhanced energy density for the capacitor. Like the 5 µm ELCRES HTV150A film, this exceptionally thin film maintains stable performance at high operating temperatures up to 150°C and addresses the critical performance gap experienced by traditional polypropylene (PP) films above 135°C. This new level of thermal performance helps customers to increase the adoption of SiC power modules with smaller package size due to the higher energy density, reducing weight while providing the increased efficiency and performance desired for increased xEV adoption by consumers.
