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.

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.
