Dielectric Coatings
Properly applying dielectrics in electric vehicle (EV) batteries mitigates thermal propagation.
Dielectrics Mitigate Battery Fire Risk
When electric vehicles are in serious crashes, having surfaces that could conduct electricity coated with dielectrics reduces the potential for a fire.
For dielectric coatings to prevent arcing or breakdown voltage, these components must work together:
- the right material or chemistry
- the ability to mix and spray that chemistry on ratio at a consistent flow rate
- an automation technique that handles specific part geometries
If all three do not work together while manufacturing EV batteries, you're likely headed for trouble.
