  • Publication number: 20240067010
    Abstract: The present invention concerns a charging cable management system, which is motorized and is applied in electric vehicle charging equipment, or other applications that require this type of solution. The developed charging cable management system allows extending or retracting a suspension cable that assists the user in the task of mobilizing and moving an electric charging cable for charging electric vehicles, preventing it from touching the ground when not in use. In addition, the charging cable management system allows the use and mobilization of charging cables with greater longitudinal amplitude, minimizing the efforts associated with carrying out these tasks by the user.

  • Patent number: 9200095
    Abstract: The present invention is concerned with a polypropylene composition comprising a polypropylene base resin, the polypropylene composition having—a XHU content of less than 1.25 wt. %;—a F30 melt strength of at least 30 cN, determined in the Rheotens test at 200° C.; and—a melt extensibility v30 of at least 200 m/s, determined in the Rheotens test at 200° C. In another aspect the present invention is concerned with a polypropylene composition having an MFR (2.16 kg, 230° C., ISO 1133) of 1.0 to 5.0 g/10 min comprising a polypropylene base resin, the polypropylene base resin being obtainable by producing an intermediate polypropylene having an MFR (2.16 kg, 230° C., ISO 1133) of 0.5 to 2.5 g/10 min in the presence of an asymmetric catalyst; mixing the intermediate polypropylene with peroxide and at least one diene at a temperature of 20 to 90° C. for at least 2 minutes to form a pre-mixed material; melt mixing the pre-mixed material in a melt mixing device at a barrel temperature in the range of 180 to 300° C.

  • Patent number: 8722805
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a polypropylene composition showing a high melt flow rate and high melt strength while maintaining high impact strength. The composition of the present invention is obtainable by using a low molecular weight linear isotactic polypropylene as melt flow enhancer for a high molecular weight polypropylene having a high melt strength and impact strength. The inventive composition could be used for the production of different articles.
