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. Check out this webinar recording to discover silicone rubber’s material compatibility, safety, and performance advantages in EV applications.

RDAbbott is hosting a free webinar about SILASTIC™ silicones for EVs on Thursday, December 5, 2024, from 10:00 – 11:00 AM (ET). Jake Steinbrecher, Technical Service & Development Scientist at Dow, will present silicone rubber’s material compatibility, safety, and performance advantages in EV applications, such as cables, busbars, battery components, and automotive lighting.

Parker Lord has released a new video that describes everyday applications for its popular Chemlok® adhesives. The video, “Chemlok Adhesives: The Invisible Bond of Your Everyday Life,” highlights Chemlok technology for rubber-to-substrate bonding at home, in the car, and at the office. The video also shows how Sipiol® coatings and Flocklok® adhesives help improve daily life through improved sealing and noise reduction.

Parker Lord is sharing an on-demand webinar recording about Chemlok® 701 Adhesive, a one-coat product for bonding castable urethanes and thermoplastic polyurethanes (TPUs) to metals. This new adhesive overcomes traditional limitations and provides increased resistance to water and high temperatures. Parker Lord’s JR Nordstrom, Senior Field Technical Representative, and Brian Carney, Senior Principal Scientist, presented the 26-minute webinar.

Join us in Minneapolis, Minnesota, for LSR 2024 from October 13 – 15 to discuss technological and scientific developments in LSR and explore its countless industry applications. LSR 2024 will kick off with a welcome reception on Sunday evening. It will continue with two days of technical presentations on Monday and Tuesday, including a panel discussion about advances in silicone materials, and an exhibitor area to connect with other attendees.

Dow is sharing a Product Selection Guide with solutions for Battery Fire Protection (BFP) in electric vehicles (EVs). Thermal runaway, a phenomenon that occurs when a battery cell starts to heat up uncontrollably, remains a risk with lithium-ion batteries. Silicones offer a unique set of properties that make them well-suited for BFP in EVs.

Dow will exhibit and present at Battery Show North America 2023, the continent’s largest battery event for electric vehicles (EVs) and hybrid electric vehicles (HEVs), from September 12 to 14 at the Suburban Collection Showplace in Novi, Michigan. Dow will exhibit E-Mobility solutions in Booth 1901 and provide a technical presentation about thermal management for EV batteries on September 14.

Parker LORD recently hosted a webinar on “Transforming Regular LSR into Self-Bonding LSR.” We wanted to make sure you have access to this insightful presentation.

Parker LORD is hosting a webinar on Wednesday, September 23rd at 2:00 PM (ET) to introduce its introduce its revolutionary adhesion additive patent-pending technology, Chemlok® 3Stream (3S), that transforms regular liquid silicone rubber (LSR) into self-bonding LSR.

PremiX® MgO 74 is an additive for extruded and injection molded articles made of chlorinated polymers. This vulcanization activator and acid receptor is based on a high-activity magnesium oxide (MgO) and can be mixed with PremiX® ZnO for a good balance of processing safety and cure rate. PremiX® MgO 74 contains 74% activated magnesium oxide and improves stability, resists scorching, and has a long shelf life.
