With the theme “Co-drive Sustainable Journey, Co-create for Shared Success”, BASF participates in the 2025 Shanghai International Carbon Neutrality Expo in Technologies, Products and Achievements (CNE). Through three sections titled “renewable energy”, “alternative raw materials”, and “new technologies”, BASF presents its latest progress towards its goal of net-zero greenhouse gas emissions by 2050, along with its innovative low-carbon technologies and co-creations with its partners.

BASF is now complementing its polyphthalamide (PPA) portfolio by Ultramid® Advanced N3U42G6, a polyamide 9T with non-halogenated flame-retardant, which minimizes electro-corrosion of metal contacts in electric and electronics (E&E) parts for e-mobility. The flame-retardant PPA increases the safety and durability of high-voltage (HV) connectors in e.g. inverters, DC-DC converters and batteries of electric cars. Due to its high strength and stiffness over a broad temperature range, its outstanding chemical resistance and dimensional stability, the Ultramid^® Advanced N grade enhances the robustness and reliability of thin-walled HV connectors meeting growing industry needs for halide-free E&E components used in warm and humid conditions.
