High Performance Battery Binders, New
Lightweight Thermoplastic Battery Casing Offer Enhanced
Performance, Recycling Opportunity and Efficiency
- Innovative, lightweight thermoplastic battery casing enables
recyclability, comparable performance characteristics of metal
casing and short production cycle times as compared to metal
casings
- VOLTABOND™ Water Based Latex Binders enhance battery life,
charging speeds, range, and overall performance
- Dedicated battery binder lab opens in Rheinmunster,
Germany
Trinseo (“Trinseo” or “the Company”) (NYSE: TSE), a specialty
material solutions provider, today announced its lineup of EV
Battery solutions that will be on display at The Battery Show
Europe in Stuttgart, Germany, June 18-20, 2024, Hall 8, Booth D26.
Two innovative technologies will be highlighted this year that
focus on improving performance of the EV battery itself, along with
a novel approach to physically protecting the battery pack.
The thermoplastic battery casing that will be showcased is
produced using the Direct Long Fiber Thermoplastic (DLFT) molding
process. This gives EV OEMs the option to move away from more
expensive heavy rigid metal casings to high performance
thermoplastic trays and covers, without compromising performance or
protection. It also allows for shorter cycle times for high volume
manufacturing, part toughness, along with structural flexibility
and greater design freedom for complex part geometries. Lighter
weight casing helps increase energy efficiency, and range in EVs as
compared to metal casings. And using high performance thermoplastic
offers increased design flexibility as compared to metal casing for
innovative functional integration while providing electric
insulation, heat insulation and fire resistance the industry
demands.
“To us, the same principles of innovation, science, engineering,
and design that define the external aesthetics of an electric
vehicle, also apply to the internal components,” said Chief
Technology Officer Han Hendriks. “In addition to the benefits of
weight reduction, our thermoplastic casing material is available in
grades containing recycled polycarbonate content produced by our
in-house PC dissolution technology.”
Also on display is Trinseo’s VOLTABOND™ aqueous-based anode
binder that binds the graphite and conductivity agent powder
together and onto the foil current collector of a battery.
VOLTABOND™ binders provide high peel strength, low DCIR and low
re-bounce. In addition, its unique chemical structure enhances
battery life by offering resistance to electrolyte dissolution.
“By improving electrical conductivity, structural integrity,
cyclability, and energy density, with our VOLTABOND™ latex binders,
we’re helping batteries last longer, charge faster, go farther and
perform better,” added Hendriks. “At less than one percent of the
battery’s weight, we can make a big impact on a number of
performance characteristics that the industry is looking for.”
