Sealing Solutions: Moving Battery Performance Forward.
Faster processes require innovative thinking. Often sealing processes will occur at the end of a battery production line so careful consideration must be made when selecting suitable products that suit the technical requirements along with fast processing. Sika’s sealing solutions are designed to meet both needs reliably.
Sealing battery packs and modules requires innovative sealing systems. End of line processes like pressure testing must be accessible quickly to keep the production line lean. In order to keep up with these demands, Sika is your project partner in delivering the right sealing solution—meeting technical requirements for long-term quality whilst keeping pace with the fast processing demands at the end of the production line.
Energy Storage Systems play a pivotal role in the future of effective green energy usage, either contributing via residential batteries for collecting solar power generated from green roofs or stabilizing grid scale storage of wind and hydro power.
Sika's catalogue of solutions along with decades of experience sealing the world from the elements provides a range of options for ensuring these batteries found in a variety of environments are durable and long lasting.
Sealing Solutions
Sika has been a trusted provider of sealing solutions for decades, offering a broad portfolio of advanced technologies and chemistries that can meet diverse market needs.
1C solutions - Single component solutions are available in a range of chemistries, polyurethane, silane terminated polymers and silicones. Single components materials are easy to apply with minimal pretreatment steps to bring efficiency to the production line.
2C solutions - Two component materials are also available in a range of chemistries. With the addition of the second component much more control can be introduced to the production line by speeding up processes to ensure fast production.
1C plus Booster - Single component materials with a booster offer high control with the security of a predictable curing profile. This allows for safer implementation and stable manufacturing processes.
CIPG - A new addition to the Sika sealing technology portfolio, this technology can be chemically, or UV cured offering stable production processes and easy repair processes for the duration of the life of the battery.
Sprayable Sealants - These materials, typically based on silane terminated polymer technology, offer excellent processability along with fast application, thereby streamlining the production line.
Fire Safety Standards That Shape Battery Design
UL94, UN ECE R100 Rev.3 and GB 38031-2020 are just some of the standards we must consider when helping customers design batteries for the market of tomorrow. UL94 plays a critical role in fire safety, and we have materials capable of achieving the most stringent V-0 rating.
