Why Material Selection Matters in Electrical Applications

Whether you’re manufacturing wiring insulation, electrical enclosures, or high-voltage components, our materials provide the performance characteristics you need to meet stringent industry standards.

Selecting the right materials for electrical applications is critical for safety, performance, and regulatory compliance. The wrong material choice can lead to catastrophic failures, costly downtime, and safety hazards.

Electrical Safety Risks: Poor insulation materials can cause short circuits, fire hazards, and system failures that endanger personnel and equipment
Performance Requirements: Electrical components require materials with heat resistance, flame retardancy, and impact resistance to withstand demanding operating conditions
Regulatory Compliance: Meeting UL, RoHS, REACH, and IEC standards is essential for market approval and liability protection
Sustainability Goals: Custom formulations can help meet environmental standards and corporate sustainability initiatives

Our AuroraTec™, AuroraGuard™, and AuroraFlex™ product lines deliver the non-conductive, flame-retardant, and impact-resistant properties essential for safe, long-lasting electrical systems.

Our PC & PC alloys provide the perfect balance of impact strength, heat resistance as well as aesthetic quality for handheld scanners, control panels & industrial equipment housings.

Aurora’s materials are ideal for power distribution boxes, switchgear housings, circuit breaker enclosures, and outdoor electrical equipment. AuroraGuard™ ABS compounds combine strength and rigidity with toughness, making them excellent for electronic enclosures and computer keyboards.

AuroraGuard™ PC (polycarbonate) compounds offer outstanding impact strength, superior heat resistance, and excellent dimensional stability for demanding enclosure applications.

Our PC/ABS alloys provide the perfect balance of impact strength, heat resistance, and aesthetic quality for handheld scanners, control panels, and industrial equipment housings.

AuroraGuard™ PEI (polyetherimide) compounds are inherently flame resistant with high resistance to elevated temperatures, providing continuous use capability up to 340°F (170°C) for critical high-voltage insulation applications.

Circuit Protection & High-Voltage Systems

For transformers, circuit boards, and industrial power systems, our materials provide enhanced electrical safety, superior insulation & full regulatory compliance.

AuroraGuard™ PEI (polyetherimide) compounds are inherently flame resistant with high resistance to elevated temperatures, providing continuous use capability up to 340°F (170°C) for critical high-voltage insulation applications.

AuroraTec™ PC/PBT compounds offer excellent chemical resistance, high impact strength, and heat resistance, making them ideal for electrical connectors in harsh environments and outdoor connector boxes. Glass-fiber reinforced grades provide additional structural integrity for demanding high-voltage applications.

Electrical Connectors & Terminals

Glass fiber reinforced PBT provides additional mechanical strength while maintaining excellent surface aesthetics with no visible floating fiber.

AuroraGuard™ PBT (polybutylene terephthalate) is the material of choice for electrical connector applications, offering UL 94 V0 flame retardance, excellent strength and toughness, low moisture absorption, and outstanding electrical and dimensional stability.

Frequently Asked Questions

What are the best materials for electrical insulation?

The best materials for electrical insulation depend on your specific application requirements. For rigid applications like electric raceways and enclosures, AuroraTec™ rigid PVC compounds and AuroraGuard™ PC and ABS compounds offer excellent dielectric strength and dimensional stability. For flexible applications like wire jacketing, AuroraFlex™ flexible PVC and TPE compounds provide superior insulation with the flexibility needed for cable applications. Our technical team can help you select the optimal material based on your temperature, voltage, and environmental requirements.

How do flame-retardant materials improve electrical safety?

Flame-retardant materials are engineered to resist ignition and limit fire spread when exposed to heat or electrical faults. Our UL 94-rated compounds self-extinguish when the ignition source is removed, preventing small electrical failures from becoming catastrophic fires. Low-smoke, zero-halogen (LSZH) options are available for applications where smoke toxicity is a concern, such as enclosed public spaces and transit applications.

What materials are best for high-temperature electrical applications?

For high-temperature applications, AuroraGuard™ PEI (polyetherimide) compounds offer continuous use capability up to 340°F (170°C) with excellent thermal stability. AuroraGuard™ CPVC compounds provide high-heat performance with flame-retardant properties. Glass-fiber reinforced grades of PC/PBT and PBT compounds extend heat resistance while adding mechanical strength for demanding high-voltage applications.

Are there sustainable options for electrical insulation materials?

Yes! Aurora offers multiple sustainable material options for electrical applications. Our AuroraGuard™ PC compounds can be provided with recyclable PC content. We offer RoHS-compliant and PFAS-free formulations that meet environmental regulations while maintaining high electrical and mechanical performance. Our AuroraEcoplast™ line features sustainable polymer solutions for environmentally conscious applications.

How do impact-resistant materials improve electrical enclosures?

Impact-resistant materials like AuroraGuard™ ABS and PC/ABS compounds protect electrical components from mechanical damage during installation, operation, and transportation. Impact-modified grades provide excellent low-temperature toughness, preventing cracking in cold environments. These materials combine electrical insulation properties with the structural integrity needed for long-lasting enclosure performance.
