How To Choose The Material Of USB Type C Data Cable?

2022 12/21

The USB Type C data cable is used as the connector between the latest electronic devices or between the electronic device and the power supply. The material selection of the connecting cable is very important. If a poor-quality connecting cable is used, it will lead to prolonged charging time, unstable data transmission, and breakage and other hidden dangers, and may even lead to the scrapping or explosion of electronic equipment.

The choice of data cable material determines the service life and safety of the data cable. What are the advantages and disadvantages of data cables made of different materials?

1. PVC data cable
Polyvinyl chloride, referred to as PVC (Polyvinyl chloride), is an initiator of vinyl chloride monomer (VCM) in peroxides, azo compounds, etc.; or under the action of light and heat according to the mechanism of free radical polymerization aggregated polymers.

Advantages of PVC data cable:

1. Low cost, good insulation performance and weather resistance;

2. The price of PVC data cable is relatively cheap. Most of our USB Cables are made of this material.

2. TPE data cable
TPE material is a material that has the high elasticity, high strength and high resilience of rubber, and has the characteristics of injection molding.

Advantages of TPE data cable:

1. Excellent processing performance, excellent colorability, soft touch, weather resistance, fatigue resistance and temperature resistance;

2. Safe and non-toxic, no peculiar smell, and will not cause any irritation to human skin;

3. Can be recycled to reduce costs.

3. Nylon braided data cable
Nylon has the characteristics of flame retardancy, high strength, wear resistance, and electrical insulation. Its plastic raw material is a translucent, white or black crystalline polymer with plasticity. Nylon has good strength and wear resistance. If you need Micro USB with this material, we also have it on sale.

Advantages of nylon braided data cable:

1. Increase the beauty and external tensile capacity of the data line;

2. No spinning phenomenon, soft, bendable, very good resilience, not easy to tangle or crease;

3. Excellent durability, not easy to deform.
