Bergamid™ FR Non-Halogen Flame Retardant Formulations: specially formulated for high-voltage connectors in a safety orange color, these materials combine the application flexibility of high-flow nylons for thin-wall designs with the performance of a non-halogenated fire retardant system, available in unfilled or reinforced PA6, PA66 and PA 6/66 grades with UL 94 V0 and CTI 800+ ratings
https://www.avient.com/products/long-fiber-technology/complet-pke-formulations
These materials are semi-crystalline and deliver excellent chemical resistance, low moisture uptake, and dimensional stability similar to nylon (PA6 and PA66).
Manufacturing polyketone results in 61% less carbon dioxide (CO2) than producing PA66 and 46% less than PA6.
https://www.avient.com/news/avient-introduces-durable-orange-nylon-colorants-high-voltage-electrical-vehicle-ev-connectors
Avient Introduces durable orange nylon colorants for High Voltage Electrical Vehicle (EV) Connectors, combining high heat and long-term color stability against fading in glass-filled PA6 and PA66 systems without compromising flame retardancy or mechanical performance.
Comparative testing between PA66-GF/FR without and with OnColor orange showed no impact on flame retardancy and limited adverse effects on essential mechanical characteristics, such as flexural and impact strength.
