A recent white paper from AkzoNobel Powder Coatings released in November discusses “The critical importance of powder coatings in driving an electric future.” The white paper explains ways in which powder coatings help protect a vehicle’s cooling systems by electrically insulating and protecting its components, keeping the battery within its optimal temperature range.

The paper also provides details about the ways powder coatings support the longer-term performance of the battery by protecting it against corrosion and other threats, and how powder coatings protect the wider electric ecosystem of the vehicle – its cooling plates and tubes, stator hairpins, bus bars, battery cell and housing – many of which have long-term heat resistance requirements. 

Specifically, the white paper addresses evolution of AkzoNobel’s Interpon and Resicoat powder coatings.

The white paper is available to read here.
