The Assembly and Protection Solutions Division of Parker Hannifin has announced the launch of CoolThermTC-850 thermally conductive structural adhesive specifically designed to enhance thermal management, structural integrity and product efficiency in electric vehicle battery packs. With a focus on collaboration, customer service and high quality, Parker provides innovative solutions that meet the design, safety and performance requirements of electric vehicle manufacturers.
The CoolTherm TC-850 adhesive addresses common challenges such as poor heat dissipation, long curing times and material compatibility by delivering a thermally conductive, room-temperature-curing adhesive optimized for battery module assembly.
Battery pack manufacturers require adhesives that not only provide strong structural bonding but also aid in thermal dissipation and production efficiency. Traditional bonding solutions often fall short in one or more of these areas, leading to performance trade-offs.
Technical details
An ideal alternative to other adhesives, which often lack the same balance of thermal performance, adhesion strength and process efficiency, CoolTherm TC-850 offers:
- Higher elongation
- High adhesion to battery pack components
- Thermal conductivity
- Improved EHS Profile
- Redundant dielectric protection
- Highspeed application
- Minimized need for mechanical fastening
This new thermally conductive structural adhesive expands Parker’s CoolTherm portfolio of thermal management solutions for OEMs and battery producers as they strive to deliver safer and more efficient battery packs.
With a global presence and a network of technology experts, Parker is uniquely positioned to support its automotive customers as the adoption of electric vehicles continues to worldwide as the adoption of electric vehicles continues to accelerate.
