Innovative solutions for EV battery potting applications
We offer a range of polyurethane systems to support the protection of electric vehicle batteries. Developed to help safeguard the structural and thermal integrity of batteries in the event of an accident, SHOKLESS™ polyurethane systems are lightweight, durable, and developed to deliver reliable protection at a cell, module, and pack level.
SHOKLESS™ products can help reduce overall battery weight while providing the required structural protection at different densities. From low density flexible foams for potting and fixing cells mounted in batteries, to high density, rigid polyurethane encapsulants developed for protecting whole battery modules or packs – we’re confident we’ve got your battery protection needs covered.
Developed to offer multiple performance benefits, our SHOKLESS™ systems for EV battery potting and encapsulation applications can typically help to deliver:
They can also be formulated with and without adhesion performance to various cells.
Developed to offer a wide processing window, our SHOKLESS™ polyurethane systems can provide extra handling flexibility. Systems can be tailored to achieve different flow characteristics, thanks to the technology’s curing and viscosity profiles. This includes fast cure / low temperature options for the open-pour process used around battery cells.
