Video: Enhancing EV battery packs with foams, adhesives and high-performance thermal materials
Effective thermal management is one of the most critical aspects of EV battery pack design. Engineers must not only ensure efficient heat dissipation during charging and discharging cycles but also maintain uniform temperature across all cells to optimize performance and extend battery life. This requires integrating advanced materials—such as flame-retardant foams, adhesives, and gap fillers—that… Read more »
Webinar: New twin-screw extrusion – Powering the next generation of battery manufacturing
From the lab to gigafactory, twin-screw extrusion (TSE) is highly beneficial in battery research and development due to its ability to produce superior electrode quality. This method is recognized for its effective distributive and dispersive mixing capabilities, resulting in homogeneous electrode materials with excellent dispersion of all ingredients. Twin-screw extrusion also supports continuous operation, an… Read more »
