In the new, booming Electric vehicles (EV) market, EV battery packs are a key component. Thermal management is critical for EV battery pack safety and lifetime. For EV battery heat dissipation, thermal conductive gap filler is likely to become a key type of thermal interface material.
To help meet the needs of this fast-growing market, Dow developed DOWSIL™ TC-5515 LT Low Density Thermal Conductive Gap Filler, featuring light weight (density 1.95 g/cm3), good thermal conductivity (2.0 W/m·K) and reliable performance for automotive applications.
Low density gap filler with reliable thermal conductivity and performance for light weight EV battery pack assembly
A two-part RT curable 2.0 W/m·K low density Silicone Gap Filler. A soft and compressible material once cured. Specifically designed to dissipate the heat from EV battery and control unit modules to provide a reliable cooling solution due to the stability of properties during typical environmental exposure simulating the entire operating life of such a module.
Benefits:
• Heat dissipation
• Light weight and lower total cost
• Good durability in automotive environment.
• Easy application process and high throughput.
• UL 94 V0, Low flame risk. Meet certificate requirement
• Low equipment maintenance cost due to low abrasion performance
• Surface tacky once cured, easy to rework after curing and assembly
• Non-flowable for thicker bondline, highly thixotropic for fast processing
• Capable of accurate dispensing for automatic production
Limitations:
• Not for thin bondlines
• No chemical bonding, tack adhesion only
• Mixing: 2-part only
Uses:
• EV battery assembly
• Electric control unit module assembly
• Ideal for applications with large gap tolerances, typically from 150 µm to 5 mm
