Solutions for Lighter and More Robust Batteries
As the current Li-Ion battery technology evolves, the demand for battery pack energy density by volume is becoming higher, metal replacement by high-performance specialty polymers provides various solutions to reduce the weight of packaging while maintaining mechanical strength.
- Evolite® has unmatched mechanical resistance under tensile, flexural, compressive, and shear stress.
- Solvalite®, specifically developed for high-volume automotive applications, offers fast cures and outstanding mechanical properties.
- Ryton® PPS is inherently flame retardant and offers exceptional dimensional stability for precision-molded components needing to withstand prolonged, high-temperature service.
- Amodel® PPA is an injection-moldable PPA with exceptionally high strength and performance in high temperature applications, including battery pack module end plates and thermal runaway mitigation components.
- XencorTM LFT is a family of long-fiber thermoplastics with outstanding dimensional stability and creep resistance, optimal for structural applications in modern battery packs.
- Xydar® LCP, available as a glass-fiber of mineral-filled resin, is well-suited for demanding thermal and insulating applications, such as battery pack module plates used in high-voltage EV models.
