Whether you’re designing lithium-ion packs, backup power systems, or grid-scale storage units, Aurora’s materials help prevent thermal runaway, resist chemical degradation, and ensure mechanical integrity under high charge-discharge cycles. Our compounds meet UL 94 and RoHS standards and can be customized for form factor, strength, and conductivity control..

High-Performance Thermoplastics for Subsea Umbilicals & Cables

Aurora delivers specialized PVC and engineered thermoplastic compounds for umbilicals used in offshore energy, subsea communications, and industrial automation. These applications require materials that can withstand hydrostatic pressure, saltwater corrosion, and long-term dynamic stress.

Industry-leading Performance in Harsh Environments

From deepwater oil rigs to remote subsea robots, Aurora’s compounds provide the strength, flexibility, and dielectric performance needed to protect power and signal lines over long distances. Our materials resist biofouling, maintain jacket integrity under tension and torsion, and support multi-layer extrusion for integrated cable systems.

Our Electrical and Electronics Solutions:

AuroraGuard™ PC (polycarbonate) compounds are amorphous, thermoplastics that possess outstanding impact strength, excellent colorability, and superior heat resistance with good electrical and thermal properties, low- temperature toughness, and superior dimensional stability. They can be provided unfilled or filled with specialized fillers, mineral or fiberglass reinforcement. PC compounds are available in flame-retardant grades (both non-halogenated and brominated), a wide range of melt viscosities, and can be offered with recyclable PC content and ultraviolet (UV) stabilized grades for outdoor weatherable applications. The polycarbonate (PC) product family complies with FDA (Food and Drug Administration), REACH (Registration, Evaluation, Authorization and Restriction of Chemicals), NSF (National Sanitation Foundation) and UL listed (UL 94).
AuroraGuard™ PC/ABS alloys provide impact strength, heat resistance, colorability, enhanced chemical resistance, very good aesthetics and dimensional stability. These compounds are also available in a recyclable grade series, which are filled with specialized fillers, minerals, or glass. These grades exhibit a superb combination of thermal and mechanical properties, excellent impact strength, high heat resistance, dimensional stability, great processability, flame retardancy, and a wide range of viscosities. AuroraGuard PC/ABS is often used for handheld scanners at checkout counters.
AuroraTec™ PC/PBT (polycarbonate/polybutylene terephthalate) compounds are made from alloys of amorphous polycarbonate and the semi-crystalline polybutylene terephthalate resin. They offer excellent chemical resistance, making AuroraTec PC/PBT ideal for electrical connectors located in harsh environments and outdoor connector boxes. Impact-modified AuroraTec PC/PBT grades can provide a high level of impact strength at low temperatures. There are also flame-retardant grades (both non-halogenated and brominated), glass filled grades, and UV stabilized grades.
AuroraGuard™ ABS (acrylonitrile butadiene styrene) combines the strength and rigidity of the acrylonitrile and styrene polymers with the toughness of the polybutadiene rubber, making them a great choice for electronic enclosures and computer keyboards.

AuroraGuard™ PBT (polybutylene terephthalate) is a high-performance engineering thermoplastic, classified as a semi-crystalline polyester. PBT exhibits outstanding chemical resistance, a very low shrink rate during molding, and excellent mechanical strength. It offers heat resistance up to 150°C, or up to 200°C when reinforced with glass fibers. In electrical applications, glass fiber-reinforced PBT is commonly used in connector materials, meeting stringent performance criteria such as UL 94 V0 flame retardance. This material also provides superior strength, toughness, low moisture absorption, and stable electrical and dimensional properties. Additionally, AuroraGuard™ PBT delivers excellent surface quality and luster, with no visible fiber floatation, making it ideal for both functional and aesthetic components in high-demand environments.
AuroraGuard™ PEI (polyetherimide) compounds start from the base resin, amorphous polyetherimide, which is an amber-to-transparent thermoplastic with characteristics similar to the related, much more costly plastic PEEK. Our PEI compounds are inherently flame resistant and provide a high resistance to elevated temperatures and solvents. Compounds within the AuroraGuard PEI family provide high mechanical property performance in continuous use environments to 340°F (170°C). Their toughness and rigidity can be further enhanced with fiberglass reinforcement.
AuroraTec™ PC/PET (polycarbonate/polyethylene terephthalate) alloys deliver exceptional mechanical, thermal, and chemical properties, making them highly suitable for a wide range of demanding military applications. These alloys offer superior durability and resistance to chemicals, weathering, and UV exposure, making them ideal for use in harsh operational environments. By combining the high-temperature resistance and dimensional stability of polycarbonate with the chemical resistance and toughness of PET, AuroraTec™ PC/PET alloys provide an optimal balance of strength and impact resistance. This makes them a preferred choice for electronic enclosures and housings, where structural integrity and reliability are paramount.
