In the rapid development of electric vehicles (EVs), battery system safety remains the "Sword of Damocles" hanging over the industry. Thermal runaway, electrical spark ignition, metal corrosion—every minor risk could escalate into a fatal hazard. While traditional flame-retardant materials partially address these issues, their high costs, processing challenges, and corrosive side effects have hindered industry progress. As a global leader in chemical and material science, BASF has revolutionized this safety battle with its Red Phosphorus Flame-Retardant Ultramid® PA6. This breakthrough not only redefines performance standards for flame-retardant materials but also emerges as the ideal choice for EV core components, combining high safety, cost efficiency, and seamless mass production.

First plastic gas tank for commercial vehicles made of BASF's high-performance Ultramid® polyamide, which weighs up to 20 percent less than an aluminum alternative

Plastic DURACON POM (polyoxide), due to its outstanding mechanical properties and processing performance, has become an important material for many high-precision and wear-resistant parts, and its application fields are very wide.

In early March 2026, BASF, the global chemical giant, announced a move of profound significance for the Asia-Pacific market: its Shanghai Thermoplastic Polyurethane (TPU) production facility has officially obtained the qualification to produce the full Elastollan® FR (Flame-Retardant) TPU portfolio. This marks BASF's successful achievement of localized supply for its entire range of flame-retardant TPU products—from Eco-friendly Flame Retardant (FHF) to High-Performance Flame Retardant (FR)—in China.

At the 2026 CCTV Spring Festival Gala, robots evolved from dancing Yangge to executing backflips—more agile, more dynamic. Behind this leap is a "skeletal evolution" driven by specialty engineering plastics. PEEK is 70% lighter than steel, offering high strength, self-lubrication, and micron-level precision for flexible, accurate joints. PPS provides heat and chemical resistance, ensuring electrical system safety. "Replacing steel with plastics" solves range anxiety and enables cost-effective mass production through injection molding. From walking to running and jumping, every step in humanoid robot evolution relies on breakthrough materials.

On May 15-16, the HUNTER team traveled to Anji for a two-day, one-night team building retreat.As we drove back to Shanghai, we carried the mountain breeze in our luggage and the drive back to our desks. Because the best team waits for you uphill, stays with you downhill, and trusts you in Werewolf. Now, we continue – shoulder to shoulder, giving it our all.
