Glass fibre top covers, bottom covers and impact protection plates can provide a more cost-effective material for battery cases. The most challenging factor is TRP, as the combustion needs to be contained in the box. Then there are EMI, thermal and electrical isolation and mechanical issues of drive loads, crashes and impacts to consider.
Foams also act as thermal and electrical conductors, depending on their material and the compression amount within the battery. An extra layer can be added to the foam to make it more suitable for EMI shielding. Battery components need protection from electromagnetic waves due to their high frequencies and small size.
Battery cases used as part of the chassis is an opportunity for composites, as designers need to close off the case with the top and bottom covers. This is good for torsional stiffness of car body. Then there is the side impact load case, which needs to transfer the load across the side rails.
These foams are built with fire-resistant materials, ensuring if something such as thermal runaway occurs in the battery, the foam will be an essential factor in reducing the chances of spreading. Dielectric foams and insulation are critical components to protecting the battery cells as they expand and contract while in use.
The most efficient way of protecting the EV’s battery pack from intrusion during a side crash is to ensure that the cross members directly underneath the floor of the passenger compartment do not deform.
Battery components need protection from electromagnetic waves due to their high frequencies and small size. Silicone thermal pads are built to last and can withstand challenging environments while providing suitable protection. Gaskets prevent dust and seal the battery case.
