When purchasing high-voltage insulating parts, there's a common misconception: you're buying a bag of insulating resin, but your mind is 'Will this batch break down?'

The order is placed, the money paid, and the goods arrive at the factory—whether it's genuine or secondary, whether the purity is sufficient, whether the pressed parts meet the pressure resistance standards—until the moment of assembly, no one dares to be confident.

This cognitive misunderstanding is especially obvious with DAPs. DAPs are niche—genuine ones are ridiculously expensive, and secondary brands worry about their purity being overestimated. If a high-voltage component fails, it means breakdown, short circuit, or a life-threatening situation. Buying in the middle is no different from taking a gamble.

To put it simply, DAP is not an ordinary insulating material; it plays the "almost ineffective" role in high-voltage electronic components. This article thoroughly explains the secondary card of DAP.

DAP is a "niche hard currency" in high-voltage insulation

DAP with the scientific name Diallyl Phthalate, a thermosetting resin monomer.

Like PF, it is thermosetting, cross-linked cured when heated, and does not melt after compression molding. But it is even more "golden" than PF — extremely high purity requirements, with electronic-grade DAP purity above 99.9%, because even a small impurity can affect the performance of high-voltage insulation.

What can it do? High-voltage switch insulators, semiconductor packaging substrates, high-voltage connectors, high-temperature resistant electrical components. High voltage resistance, moisture resistance, and stable insulation are its key assets.

Global Landscape. DAP is a very niche category with high concentration. By electronic-grade and molding material standards, the top three foreign companies are:

The first tier is Japan's Daicel, whose electronic-grade DAP resin purity exceeds 99.9%, has long dominated imports, and in 2024, electronic-grade DAP imported from Japan will be the main product.

The second tier is Japan's Resonac (formerly Hitachi Chemical, merged and reorganized with Showa Denko in 2023), with accumulation in DAP/DAIP molding materials in high-voltage insulating parts.

The third tier is Germany's BASF, which has a presence in DAP molding plastics and electronic-grade resins.

There are few companies in this industry, and the quantity is small; basically, these are the few companies specializing in the process.

For thermosetting sub-brands, the difference is in purity

DAP How do sub-brands come from? As always: same manufacturer and same grade, if some factory inspection indicators don't fully meet the standards, those that pass are labeled as genuine and those that don't fully meet the standards are sub-brands. Same formula system as the original manufacturer.

But DAP is thermosetting, so the logic for sub-brands needs to be specially explained: it mostly leaves in liquid resin or mixed molding plastics, and after curing, cross-linking is irreversible. So-called secondary brands commonly refer to batches with a 0.1 percentage point difference in purity, gel time markings, or volatile fractions slightly exceeding the standard.

Four main sources: start-and-stop head and tail materials, grade switching transition materials, batches with process fluctuations causing purity or gel time slight exceedances, and secondary line tail materials.

Recycled/ crushed materialScrap parts ground and reusedCured crosslinked, poor reprocessing performanceLow requirements filler
Regenerated materialWaste DAP recyclingPerformance fluctuates greatlyLow-end filling

Key reminder: For DAPs made with high-voltage components, purity is the lifeline. Even if the secondary brand differs by 0.1 percentage points, it might be fine for low-voltage components, but it poses a hidden risk for high-voltage components.

Da Cellu, synonymous with electronic-grade DAPs

Let's start with Da Cellu. This company is an unavoidable name in DAP resin.

Its electronic-grade DAP purity exceeds 99.9%, and it has long dominated the high-end imported market. For high-voltage insulating components and semiconductor packaging substrates, many specifications require its grade.

What does its sub-brand look like? Most are batches with about 0.1 percentage points difference in purity, or gel-time markings. The molecular structure hasn't changed; the parts pressed out have insulation basically the same level as genuine brands in medium and low voltage environments, but when making high-voltage certified parts, they are removed.

Where is it used? General medium and low voltage insulating parts, ordinary electrical components. In these cases, the tolerance for purity is a bit broader, so the secondary brand can handle it.

Resonac, the original Hitachi Chemical high-voltage molding plastic line

Now, let's talk about Japan's Resonac. This company has a big background—originally Hitachi Chemical, which merged and reorganized with Showa Denko in 2023.

Its DAP/DAIP molding compound is widely used in high-voltage switches and connectors, with moisture and high voltage resistance as its strengths. Its secondary brand is commonly for gel time or packing content for the wire batch.

Where is it used? Medium and low voltage insulating parts, general connectors. When encountering Resonac sub-brands, note that their routing leans toward high-voltage systems, so their performance is surplus for ordinary parts.

BASF, a supplementary product for European electronics-grade

The third company is Germany's BASF. It has a presence in DAP molding agents and electronic-grade resins, serving as a supplementary supply for the European market.

Its sub-brand is mostly transition material for specific customer specifications or batches with slight fluctuations in volatile parts.

Where is it used? General industrial insulating parts. BASF's sub-brand circulation is not large, but when it comes to matching specifications, the batch is stable. Before placing an order for

DAP sub-brand, how should you choose a sub-brand? Determine the gel timing correctly, suppress the evaporation fraction, and align the insulation resistance

DAP Three hard wires.

First, test purity and gel time first. The most common failures with DAP secondary brands are purity drift and unstable gel time—if purity is lower, high-voltage parts may breakdown; If gel time drifts, pressed parts may not be fully filled or baked through. Before entering the factory, test purity, gel time, and volatile fraction; then discuss these three together.

Second, check voltage level. High-voltage certified parts and semiconductor packaging should use genuine ones; Medium and low voltage general insulating parts can be used as secondary parts. Don't use secondary tags to challenge high-voltage parts.

Third, don't touch crushed recycled materials. Heat set DAP scrap parts are ground up and refilled; if cross-connection points break, they can't be reconnected, causing severe insulation loss. Don't take advantage of this kind of bargain.

Urumqi has a client who makes high-voltage switch insulating parts. Previously, they bought a batch of DAP secondary labels cheaply. Purity marking and gel time were floating, and the pressed parts broke down during withstand voltage tests after assembly, resulting in a whole batch of switch recalls. Later, they switched to large celluloid sub-brands of the same grade. Each batch first tested purity and gel time before pressing, reducing the voltage breakdown rate from a few batches to zero accidents in six months.

Packaging specifications: Both large and small packages are available. Small packages are tested and sampled, large packages and tons are mass-produced and thinned.

Warehouse Stock: DAP sub-brand warehouses usually have stock between 2000-5000 tons, with constant stock year-round.

Among them, small sub-brand stocks are 300-600 tons, boxed sub-brand stocks are 150-300 tons, and large packages/ton stocks are 1500-4100 tons, with flexible distribution according to order ratios

Supply Assurance: Batch samples can be traced, and each batch can be checked upon entering the factory.

Six-Line Formula, No Panic with DAP Secondary Brand Press Machines

High-voltage certified components, semiconductor packaging — use the original brand, don’t skimp;

Medium and low-voltage general insulation components — secondary brands are usable, test purity first;

Electronic-grade high purity — follow the Dasailu route;

High-voltage molded plastics — look at Resonac;

When switching batches, measure gel time and volatility;

Do not touch thermosetting ground material, pressing parts will definitely be pierced.

DAP material is niche but valuable; even a 0.1% difference can cause problems. Choosing the right secondary brand can save the cost of one insulation component; choosing the wrong purity, a batch of pierced switches can cause losses enough to halt operations for rectification.
