Arnitel® CM622
- Chemical Family
- Polyesters
Arnitel® CM622, a high-performance thermoplastic copolyester (TPC) renowned for its exceptional blend of flexibility, high-temperature resistance, strength, and outstanding processing attributes. In industries spanning automotive to E&E, it serves as a lighter, more intelligent, and eco-friendly replacement for traditional rubbers, effectively lowering environmental impact and system costs. Processed through extrusion and injection molding techniques, it features a hardness of 60 Shore D, primarily ideal for extrusion applications.

- Wire and Cable Insulation Application Data
Arnitel® TPC allows for reliable solutions due its high temperature resistance (class T3 and T4, Class D (150°C) enabling thin and ultra thin wall designs, Class E (175°C) >20 mm2 thick and thin wall); Arnitel® TPC allows for cost effective solutions (up to 50% lower system costs versus ETFE/FEP, 40% weight down versus XL PO at similar costs); Arnitel® TPC allows for sustainable solutions due to availability of halogen free flame retardant grades
- Convoluted Tubes for Automotive Application Data
Arnitel® convoluted tubing is used in class-D and class-E cable trees. The primary purpose is usage in high temperature areas of the car.; Arnitel® offers a high continuous use temperature (>150C); Arnitel® is easily extrudable into low wall thickness; Arnitel® has flame retardant grades available
- Application Data
Arnitel® TPC allows for light weight solutions (75% lighter compared to rubber); Arnitel® TPC allows for cost effective solutions (up to 50% lower system costs than rubber); Arnitel® TPC allows for sustainable solutions (compared to PA12, Arnitel is a plasticizer free solution); Arnitel® TPC allows for reliable solutions due to its peak temperatures resistance up to 180°C – 200°C and its good heat aging due to continuous use temperatures 120°C – 170°C
