Wire and cable manufacturers face increasing demands for safety, durability, performance, and regulatory compliance across applications such as automation, data transmission, optical fiber, automotive, and EV charging cables. Join Lubrizol experts Fabio Morelli and Michiel Aerts for a technical webinar exploring the latest ESTANE® non-halogenated flame-retardant (NHFR) TPU technologies designed to address these evolving challenges.
During this session, we will showcase Lubrizol’s NHFR TPU portfolio for wire and cable applications, with a particular focus on our advanced heat-resistant solutions. Learn how ESTANE® ZHF materials combine flame-retardant performance, mechanical robustness, processability, long-term thermal stability, and compliance with key UL, IEC, and EN standards to support demanding cable designs.
Attendees will gain valuable insight into material selection for automation and heat-resistant cable applications, including the latest developments in hydrolysis resistance, elevated temperature performance, low smoke formulations, and global cable compliance. The webinar will also highlight how Lubrizol’s heat-resistant TPU technologies can help manufacturers meet increasingly stringent performance requirements while maintaining processing efficiency and product reliability.
Whether you are involved in cable design, material selection, product development, or regulatory compliance, this webinar will provide practical guidance for selecting the right TPU solution to meet today’s wire and cable challenges and future performance expectations.
