3 factors that impact gap filler reworkability in EV battery packs

Charged

The design of electric vehicle battery packs may vary among manufacturers but commonly, the battery is attached to its cooling plate not only with fasteners but also thermally conductive polymeric materials called gap fillers. However, the high adhesion values also pose a challenge if the battery needs to be disassembled.

Benefits of advanced isolated packaging in high-power battery charging designs

Charged

The increase in EV usage is also a challenge for electric utilities to manage the large loads resulting from re-charging EV batteries. The utility could pull power from a charged battery back to the grid to supply power to another vehicle to reduce peak demand. Utilities are investigating two vehicle-to-grid technologies.
