Key Takeaways: One route to achieving these goals is the elimination of the housings of battery modules and bonding… Read more »
Thermally conductive adhesives for next generation cell-to-pack configurations
Sponsored by Parker Lord With the significant growth and development of battery pack technologies, manufacturers of Electric Vehicles (EVs) are placing an increased emphasis on pack design optimization. Manufacturers seek lighter weight, yet more compact solutions to gain additional energy density and reduce cost. In parallel, they also strive for simpler and more affordable manufacturing… Read more »
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 »
24M’s new Electrode-to-Pack technology enables greater pack-level energy density for EV batteries
We EV veterans remember the old days, when a battery pack was designed according to a strict hierarchy: cell, module, pack. Then, way back in 2019, CATL introduced a cell-to-pack architecture, which, by dispensing with modules, allowed a battery pack to be made lighter and smaller. This technology has since reached its third generation, and… Read more »
