As growth in the EV industry accelerates toward a sustainable future, engineers need to meet multiple challenges. Silicone rubber is compatible with a wide range of materials used in EV manufacturing and combines thermal and electrical safety with proven performance.

For example, silicone’s exceptional thermal stability and dielectric properties make this elastomer ideal for use in high voltage (HV) systems. Applications include cables and busbars, each of which poses different challenges.

Silicone’s high-temperature resistance supports normal EV use and is especially important during and after a potential thermal event. As battery fire protection materials, silicones withstand many charge/discharge cycles and undergo ceramification instead of combustion above 300°C.

Join us as we explore how silicone rubber is revolutionizing the EV industry. Driving advancements in safety, compatibility, and performance, and paving the way for a more reliable and efficient future in transportation.
