EU countries, including the German government, are vigorously developing the charging pile industry, with the goal of accelerating the construction of charging infrastructure and simplifying the charging process, thereby making it easier for people to switch from fuel vehicles to electric vehicles. Various measures are undoubtedly helping the development of electric vehicles, reducing environmental pollution, and helping energy conservation and emission reduction. As the supporting industry of the charging pile, the charging pile cable is the carrier of power transmission to the electric vehicle. Only with good quality can the precise operation of the charging process be controlled more accurately.

The application environment of charging piles is special: light, wind and rain, severe cold, fire prevention, safe electricity use, gasoline contact, etc., so the performance requirements of materials used in the field of charging piles are higher than those of general materials.

Charging pile cables are generally composed of conductors, insulation, fillers, tapes, and sheaths. Among them, common sheathing and insulating materials are TPU, PVC, TPE, and so on.

TPU Chinese name is thermoplastic polyurethane elastomer rubber, which is a polymer material formed by chemical reaction and polymerization of various materials. A plastic material that can be repeatedly softened or changed under a certain heat, but it can maintain its shape at room temperature and can play a supporting and protective role.

The Chinese name of PVC is polyvinyl chloride, and the common PVC is a kind of plastic decorative material. It is composed of amorphous thermoplastic resin made by polymerization of vinyl chloride monomer plus certain additives (such as stabilizers, lubricants, fillers, etc.). It has good mechanical properties and good acid resistance, and is often used in the production of wire, cable insulation, seals and other items.

TPE Chinese name is thermoplastic elastomer, which is a material with high elasticity, high strength, high resilience of rubber, and the characteristics of injection molding.
