EV CRASH STRUCTURAL PLASTICS MARKET

INTRODUCTION

Batteries are a crucial component of electric vehicles (EVs), yet they are extremely sensitive to heavy mechanical loads (e.g. crash). For a flexible and affordable crash absorber that helps batteries withstand collisions, automotive OEMs, designers, and engineers can turn to our polycarbonate blend.

By absorbing kinetic energy in the side sills, which are located below the wheel arches and protect the vehicle's body from side hits, a crash absorber keeps the EV battery safe.

EV CRASH STRUCTURAL PLASTICS MARKET SIZE AND FORECAST

The Global EV crash structural plastics 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.

EV CRASH STRUCTURAL PLASTICS MARKET NEW PRODUCT LAUNCH

A cutting-edge, multi-material housing for an electric vehicle battery has been introduced by Continental Structural Plastics of Auburn Hills. The item can be produced using any of Continental's unique composite formulations as well as honeycomb Class A panel technology created at the business's new Advanced Technologies Center.

The full-sized battery enclosure is a multi-material component with a one-piece composite lid and one-piece composite tray with reinforcing made of aluminium and steel. CSP claims it has developed a solution that is simpler to seal and can be approved prior to shipment by moulding the cover and the tray into each of one piece. For its unique box assembly and fastening technologies, the company has filed for two patents.

Additionally, the business created a mounting structure that absorbs energy using structural foam. In addition to enhancing crash performance, this allows for a thinner and lighter structure.

In order to give their clients additional alternatives for current and upcoming vehicle programs, they are developing technologies and procedures here that make use of CSP and Teijin's expertise in carbon fibre, manufacturing, thermoplastic and thermoset composites, and thermoset composites. They can lighten things up while enhancing occupant safety and durability, two essential qualities for connected, driverless, and electric vehicles. 

According to the business, a steel battery box weighs 15% more than the CSP battery enclosure. Even though it weighs the same as an aluminium enclosure, the CSP enclosure has better temperature resistance than aluminium, particularly if a phenolic resin system is employed.

Additionally, the tray's one-piece design means that there are no through holes, therefore sealing or sealant is not necessary. This lowers production costs and complexity overall while also eliminating the possibility of leakage.
