Rilperm® for Safety
Many automotive fuel line standards include conductivity requirements for added safety. Conductivity prevents static electric charges from building, which could otherwise cause a catastrophic spark in an explosive environment. Conductive Rilperm® fuel lines deliver safety, dissipating static electricity well below dangerous levels.

Conductive Rilperm® Structures:
The flow of hydrocarbon and other non-polar liquids over materials such as plastics normally induce static electricity. One can easily imagine that a resultant spark in the fuel system could have a disastrous, explosive effect.
As a result, many global standards and OEM specifications require that lines carrying liquid fuel must be conductive to provide electrostatic discharge (ESD). Arkema has developed Rilperm® products within each of our general product categories that provide critical ESD even after exposure to severe fuel environments.
