What adhesives are used for EV batteries?

Dupont’s BETAMATE (5) and BETAFORCE (7) are part of a broad portfolio of adhesives for numerous EV applications. The next generation of EV batteries is witnessing the emergence of cell-to-pack designs. These designs integrate battery cells into the pack using thermal structural adhesives.

How can adhesives improve EV battery design?

Advanced adhesives and sealants like those from DuPont can help advance sustainability. An essential contribution of adhesives to EV battery design is that they allow for greater simplicity. For example, adhesives help reduce or eliminate mechanical fasteners, reducing battery complexity.

What is a battery adhesive?

Courtesy of Dupont. Some adhesives for battery assembly serve a multifunctional role, providing structural joining, thermal management, and support for dielectric isolation. Adhesives in this class offer thermal management and medium strength that supports the stiffness and mechanical performance of the battery pack.

Why is adhesive technology important for electric vehicle battery packs?

Adhesive technology plays a vital role in the assembly and performance of electric vehicle battery packs. From ensuring structural integrity to managing heat and enhancing safety, adhesives, and sealants contribute significantly to the success of EVs.

Are EV batteries thermally conductive?

Thermally conductive adhesives, sealants, and gap fillers are critical in EV battery thermal management and safety. Battery cell, module, and pack designers should be aware that traditional silicone-based thermal gap fillers may cause contamination that can result in contact failure.

What are EV adhesives & sealants?

Specifically, adhesives and sealants have a critical role in EV battery durability, performance, and manufacturing. Understanding how these solutions work will help automotive designers innovate and meet the demand for EVs, which is expected to be more than 50% of global car sales by 2028.
