Coating for EV Batteries

Batteries for electric vehicles (EV) pose unique coating challenges. Not only does an EV battery coating need to be heat and oil resistant, but it also has to prevent corrosion without compromising the performance of the electric vehicle. The DECC Company can apply a proven coating solution that does all of the above, while also preserving the life of an EV battery.

The battery accounts for 40% of the total cost of an electric vehicle, so properly protecting the battery with the right coating is a vital investment for OEMs. The protective coating is a thermal-cure epoxy resin that provides electrical insulation, is heat and oil resistant, and offers a high transfer of energy. Most importantly, it prevents battery acid, moisture, salt, and other elements from degrading the substrate, ensuring an EV battery maintains its performance and life cycle.
