Plastic is the most common material used for automotive electrical connectors. Why?
l They are light in weight and are chemically stable.
l Easily moulded into different shapes and sizes.
l Good insulation and low thermal conductivity.
l Good impact resistance and they do not rust.
l Good transparency and wear resistance.
l Poor dimensional stability and can be easily deformed.
l Low processing cost.
What types of materials are typically used in automotive electrical connectors? What temperatures can they withstand?
l PBT 140-305℃
l PBT-GF More than 150℃
l PA66 60-70°C
l PC 45-135℃
l PET 70-120℃
l PPA With a heat distortion temperature of over 300°C and a continuous use temperature of 170°C
l PBI The long-term operating temperature can reach 310℃, and the short-term operating temperature can reach 500℃.
l PPS 180-220℃
