EM6098A-SL
150 °C thin-wall low-smoke halogen-free automotive cable compound

Overview
EM6098A-SL is a 150 °C low-smoke halogen-free, irradiation cross-linked thin-wall automotive cable compound. It offers excellent oil and scrape resistance with good mechanical and tear strength, passes the single-conductor vertical flame test, and suits EV internal high-voltage feeder cables and thin-wall automotive wire below 6 mm², meeting ISO 6722-1:2011 and QC/T 1037-2016.
Key features
- 150 °C thin-wall automotive grade for ≤ 6 mm² wire
- Excellent oil resistance and scrape / abrasion resistance
- High elongation after irradiation (528%)
- Targets ISO 6722-1:2011 and QC/T 1037-2016
- For EV internal high-voltage feeder cables
