📋 Tender Overview
Parker LORD a division of Parker Hannifin the global leader in motion and control technologies has expanded their portfolio of products for electric vehicle manufacturers to include new thermally conductive TC adhesives and one-component 1K low-density gap fillers to support their leading product offering of thermal management encapsulants adhesives and gap fillers.With the significant growth and development of battery pack technologies EV manufacturers are placing an increased emphasis on pack design optimization. Manufacturers seek lighter weight yet more compact solutions to gain additional energy density. At the same time they are also striving for simplicity and affordability. To achieve these goals manufacturers are looking at both immediate and long-term solutions including bonding individual cells directly to the cooling plate and even bonding directly to the vehicle chassis. For these designs to be viable new bonding and thermal management technologies are needed.Parkers newest commercially available material in their Parker LORD CoolTherm portfolio is designed to meet these changing needs. This portfolio includes a range of Cell-to-Pack CTP adhesive technologies including a new TC urethane adhesive. These materials can deliver substantial thermal conductivity while also maintaining high levels of adhesion enabling direct bonding of battery cells to cooling plates.These new CTP adhesives offer strong adhesion substantial thermal conductivity low density improved flow characteristics and low dielectric constant all of which are key to enabling battery and EV manufacturers in achieving higher pack energy densities and reduced manufacturing costs.The CoolTherm two-component 2K portfolio provides customers with a variety of thermal conductivities and chemistries to choose from which provide a high dispense rate reliable cure performance and desired electrical properties. To complement the CoolTherm product line where 2-component mixing is not desired a new non-silicone and environmentally friendly one-component 1K gap filler has been developed. These new 1K gap fillers help Parker customers by reducing manufacturing and logistic complexity. Dispensable in any unit the 1K solution is a low-density gap filler with excellent flow properties.Were thrilled to continue growing our partnerships with OEMs and battery manufacturers said Brad Gibson Global Director of Sales Marketing and Business Development Parker LORD. As the market leader in thermal management solutions Parker continues to innovate meeting new challenges and exceeding our customer expectations.
