Housing bonding and sealing The battery housings are typically installed in the vehicle floor. To protect this housing from dirt, dust, and moisture, they are closed with a liquid seal. Sealing is an effective dispensing method for protecting components from external influences by creating a barrier.
Another benefit of using adhesives for sealing battery housings is that they provide a 100% seal against moisture ingress, and potting adhesives surrounding the cells and other electrical components prevent contamination and possible malfunction. Non-burning, fire retardant adhesives help to maximise vehicle safety.
Overall, both battery potting and encapsulation are crucial techniques in battery design and manufacturing to ensure the safety and reliability of batteries in a wide range of applications, from consumer electronics to electric vehicles and renewable energy systems. Below are 3 of our top products for Battery potting and encapsulation.
Encapsulation: Battery encapsulation refers to the process of sealing the battery or its components in a protective casing or enclosure, often made of metal or plastic. Safety: Encapsulation can prevent the release of harmful substances or gases in the event of a battery malfunction, such as overheating or a short circuit.
Using toughened adhesives in the construction of battery packs helps absorb impact forces, reducing the level of damage to the battery during a collision. Toughened adhesives also help to protect the battery pack against the shocks and vibrations experienced when driving;they can also help with sound deadening for improved passenger comfort.
Utilizing potting and encapsulation compounds in your battery pack design can optimize the performance of your end product. There are three basic types of resins used in this process; these materials are epoxy, urethane, and silicone. These polymeric formulations have excellent adhesion, thermal stability and outstanding chemical resistance.
