Thermal Management

Performance materials by Envalior for effective thermal management in automotive systems.

Optimizing thermal management systems for EVs with advanced materials

Automakers are increasingly investing in electric vehicles (EVs) to meet stringent CO2 emission regulations set by governments, as well as consumer demand for greener vehicles. As automotive brands bring more EVs to market, they need to address the safety issues related to electric engine batteries.

In EVs, thermal management systems (TMS) are critical to keeping battery packs within the optimal temperature range to improve engine efficiency and service lifetimes as the EV operates. Additionally, TMS continue running when the EV is being charged to prevent battery pack thermal runaway – which is especially critical for fast EV charging. This requires manufacturers to ensure the thermoplastic components in TMS are tested to withstand more than 10,000 hours of exposure to coolant chemicals.


Understand why choosing Envalior in thermal management systems

Envalior supplies a complete portfolio of materials optimized for TMS components and works directly with our customers to identify the materials best suited to the specific needs of their applications. XytronTM, our leading PPS compound, is ideal for developing TMS components that require the highest hydrolysis and heat aging resistance, including thermal management modules, coolant control valves and electric water pumps. Our ForTii® PPA and EcoPaXX PA410 materials also offer proven performance in system components such as coolant tubing, electric control valves and water jackets.
Envalior leverages our deep expertise in automotive, electric and electronic applications, and our best-in-class, cost-competitive materials to drive more value for our customers. Due to our strong partnerships with automotive industry leaders worldwide, manufacturers working with our materials often get parts approved by OEMs faster – leading to stronger business relationships. Our global services teams are prepared to support all your EV part manufacturing needs, and help you pursue a wide range of growth opportunities within the automotive market.
