✅ In September 2025, Ube Industries released a high-voltage insulating coating for EV motor wires. The coating allows for thinner insulation and more compact motors. It contributes to the miniaturization of e-axles in Japan.

Polymers in Electric Vehicles Market: Drivers
Polymers in electric vehicles are critical for lightweighting, thermal management, electrical insulation, and interior aesthetics-contributing to improved range, safety, and manufacturability. High-performance polymers, thermoplastic composites, and elastomers replace metals in structural components, battery housings, and cable insulation to reduce mass and simplify assembly. Innovations in flame-retardant, heat-resistant, and recyclable polymer formulations address battery safety and end-of-life considerations. The shift to electric drivetrains amplifies demand for polymers that meet stringent automotive standards for durability and thermal performance.

Suppliers collaborate with OEMs to develop tailored compounds for battery enclosures, power electronics, exterior trims, and lightweight chassis components. Recyclability and circularity of polymer parts are becoming key differentiators as automakers commit to sustainable materials. As EV volumes rise and component complexity increases, advanced polymers will be instrumental in achieving cost, weight, and safety targets across vehicle platforms.
