Glass fibre reinforced plastic (GFRP) and carbon fibre reinforced plastic (CFRP) components both have great mechanical properties, including high stiffness and strength while being lightweight. Comparing a battery container made of CFRP to one made of aluminium or steel, for instance, can result in weight savings of up to 40%.
The Global EV battery housing Glass-Reinforced Nylon market accounted for $XX Billion in 2023 and is anticipated to reach $XX Billion by 2030, registering a CAGR of XX% from 2024 to 2030.
For a Korean line of electric vehicles, Lanxess developed a battery module housing made of glass fibre reinforced plastic (GRP). (EVs). The business used its Durethan BKV30FN04 material, developed in collaboration with car parts expert INFAC, to create the battery housing.
Lanxess claims that fibre-reinforced polyamide 6 (PA6) is flame-retardant, halogen-free, and sufficiently processable to permit the incorporation of the intricate functions necessary for housing components. According to reports, it also features high-voltage insulation and keeps its stiffness and strength even when it comes into contact with an electrolyte or cooling media.
Engineering plastics from Lanxess are also appropriate for parts like battery covers, high-voltage connectors, cable brackets, battery cell cooling system pipes, and hydrogen fuel cell car components like hydrogen storage containers.
For the battery enclosure, LANXESS's Durethan BKV30FN04 was used to meet the exacting mechanical and chemical property standards for the newest EV components. Excellent electrical and flame-retardant characteristics define the halogen-free, flame-resistant, and glass-fibre strengthened polyamide 6 (PA6).
The material is very processable and allows for the integration of complicated functions needed for housing components, resulting in fewer pieces, an easier assembly process, and lighter weight.
The success of LANXESS Durethan's battery housing mass production highlights the company's prowess in electric vehicle batteries, where science and safety are of the utmost importance. The EV and battery industries will benefit greatly from the high performance plastics they produce.
