Nuvera Fuel Cells using BASF polyphthalamide (PPA) in several components of its new 45kW fuel cell engine

Green Car Congress

The components, such as manifold, thermostat housing, check valve, ejector as well as exhaust pipes, require stable material properties across varying temperatures. The BASF PPA also allows for very low fuel and gas permeation as well as low volatiles so that corrosion or fouling of the engine system is prevented.
