With the growing demand for efficient and sustainable energy storage solutions, cell contacting systems and battery packs play a crucial role in powering various applications, including electric vehicles, renewable energy storage, and portable electronics. The reliability and performance of these systems heavily rely on the quality and integrity of the adhesives used in their assembly.
Panacol, a manufacturer of industrial UV, structural and conductive adhesives, has created advanced adhesive technologies tailored specifically for cell contacting systems and battery packs. The adhesives offer a range of benefits:
Enhanced Electrical Conductivity
The advanced adhesive formulations exhibit electrical conductivity, ensuring reliable and efficient current flow within cell contacting systems. This conductivity optimisation results in reduced power losses, increased energy efficiency, and enhanced overall system performance.
Superior Adhesion Strength
By harnessing adhesive chemistries, Panacol has engineered products with bonding strength. These adhesives form strong, durable connections between components, minimising the risks of delamination, detachment, or intermittent contact. The result is improved safety, prolonged service life, and reduced maintenance costs.
Thermal Management
Thermal management is a critical aspect of cell contacting systems and battery packs. Panacol's adhesive solutions exhibit thermal conductivity, facilitating efficient heat dissipation and maintaining optimal operating temperatures. This characteristic not only safeguards the integrity of the system but also enhances its performance and longevity.
Products to Consider
UV-curing adhesives Vitralit UV 2113 and Vitralit UV 2114 are characterised by high adhesion to many materials and meet the requirements of the automotive industry in terms of media and temperature resistance. The rheological properties of both Vitralit UV 2113 and Vitralit UV 2114 can be adapted to individual customer requirements. Fluorescent adhesive variations for optical process control are also available.
These adhesives can be cured with light in the UVA or visible range in a few seconds. Both gas discharge lamps and LED spot systems can be used for curing.
Additionally, the dual curing Vitralit UD 8050 is suitable for complex CCS geometries with shadowed areas. After UV irradiation, this ion-pure acrylate adhesive postcures in the shadowed areas by reacting with humidity in the air.
