Borgwarner enters licensing agreement for capacitor technology
By Will Hall - 13th December 2021
USA – Borgwarner Inc., based in Auburn Hills, Michigan, has entered an exclusive licensing agreement with PolyCharge America Inc for the use of its capacitor technology in Borgwarner’s range of inverters. The capacitors enable high-power inverters to be smaller, lighter, and more tolerant to high temperatures.
PolyCharge’s NanoLam capacitor technology utilizes thin polymer dielectric layers, making them ideal for applications in which weight savings, high temperature tolerance and packaging space are critically important. Compared to traditional polypropylene DC-link capacitors, PolyCharge NanoLam products offer significantly higher energy density, higher ripple current ratings, and lower inductance resulting in improved efficiency and higher power density inverter systems.
