EV Vehicles

High Performance Materials for Engineering Excellence.

 

 

Advancing Manufacturing Through Innovation.

Glassbond has manufactured high performing materials under licence from Sauereisen Inc for almost 40 years. Delivering proven coating, sealing and potting solutions to demanding industrial sectors. As the EV market continues to evolve, our materials provide the reliability, thermal resistance and protection required for next generation battery systems, power electronics and advanced vehicle manufacturing.

Products

Air Set Materials.

These materials require no chemical catalyst, making them ideal for assembly line processes. Typical curing time is between 18-24 hours, but this can be reduced by heat application. Having characteristics such as being fireproof, gas proof and withstanding high temperatures these products can provide versatility for any production process.

Suited to thin applications.

Chemical Set Materials.

These materials can withstand temperatures up to 1600°C making them ideal for the high temperature requirements of the electric vehicle industry. This group of products have a quick cure time of between 30-90 minutes and can harden in a larger mass or thickness, making them suitable for thicker potting or casting applications. 

Suited to thick applications.

Types of Applications

From bonding and sealing to potting, encapsulation and protective coatings, our high performance materials are engineered to meet the demanding requirements of the EV industry. Our products have been proven in applications including:

Battery Management Systems

These high performance materials can be used to seal joints and encapsulate batteries where thermal resistance is needed to prevent heat distribution.

Busbars & Connectors

The heat resistant qualitities of our materials make them ideal for bonding and coating.

Insulated Gate Bipolar Transistor (IGBT)

The high thermal conductivity, electrical insulation and long thermal cycling stability of our materials makes them ideal for potting and coating.

Fire Protection

Our materials high temperature qualities can provide a heat shield whether being used for coating, bonding or encapsulating. These materials are also gas and oil proof.

Cell & Module Bonding

The thermal conductivity of these materials makes them an effective adhesive and filler for cell to module bonding.

High Voltage Components

Potting and encapsulating the stator and motor windings in ceramic materials offers excellent heat and fire protection.
