Dow will be showcasing its broad portfolio of solutions for EV batteries, including silicone foams, EPDM, polymer emulsions and adhesives, at the InterBattery 2023 show in Seoul, South Korea. At Booth X103 in Coex Hall D, the company's experts will be on site to walk visitors through its innovative technologies that have helped drive a safer, lower-carbon future for the mobility industry, including: Silicone foam for battery fire protection: The company is silicone material solution provider to balance components in the silicone foam material, collaborating with silicone foam producer to meet customer requirement including compressibility, low thermal conductivity (room temperature and high temperature), temperature resistance; Enables long-term module/pack operational stability and provides battery cell fire protection in the case of a thermal runaway for different cell types and module and pack configurations. Based on the customer requirement, the space between the cylindrical cells can be fully or half filled and/or the Si-Foam will only be applied on the top of cell system.

DOWSIL™ Thermal Conductive Materials: Designed to dissipate the heat from electronics to heat sink, this gap filler provides a reliable cooling solution for engine or transmission control units, on board chargers, or in battery packs or modules. VORATRON™ Adhesives, Pottants, Gap fillers: Offers a wide range of superior electric vehicle battery pack assembly adhesives and gap fillers for processing efficiency and ease of customization; Supports advanced battery packs with high strength thermally conductive adhesives, high speed assembly with low squeeze force gap fillers and lightweighting/high productivity with engineered potting resins; Can be optimized for sustainability through formulation know-how that minimizes material loss during battery assembly, with the possibility of content circularity. EV coolant fluid engineering system to enhance battery thermal management: Provide a lightweight polymer solution for EV thermal management systems with excellent reliability with chemical resistance, low plate out, and lower weight, enabling the evolution of coolant fluid engineering system for EV.

Adhesives, tie resins and CPP modifiers for Lithium-ion battery pouch cells containing aluminum-laminated films: Total solutions for different processes and optimized structure design; Enables improved material properties for better pouch cell durability, greater efficiency in energy consumption and increased packaging integrity with strong bonding/sealing strength between layer. ELECPURE™ Thermo-Responsive Polymer Emulsion: Shuts down Lithium-ion battery separators and reduces thermal runaway risk at high temperatures. Additionally, the company will display a full battery mockup at its booth, providing attendees the opportunity to experience first-hand how each technology performs across different battery designs, including prismatic, pouch and cylindrical cells, and how they can help advance the future of mobility.
