The PORON EVExtend® product family of battery pad materials is the latest advancement in protecting and extending battery life for pouch, prismatic, and solid state batteries. Designed to address the unique challenges of Electric and Hybrid-Electric Vehicle batteries, PORON EVExtend outperforms other battery pad solutions on the market, offering superior levels of reliability and long-term durability.

Features

  • PORON EVExtend 43: Thickness range of 0.039 to 0.118 in (1 to 3 mm) and density range of 7 to 20 lb/ft3 (112 to 320 kg/m3)
  • PORON EVExtend 43: Flat CFD Curve
  • PORON EVExtend 43: Tight specification of 5% on compression set (per ASTM D3574 at 70⁰C), on select items
  • PORON EVExtend 71: Density range of 20 to 25 lb/ft3 (320 to 400 kg/m3) at thickness of 0.188 (3mm) thickness
  • PORON EVExtend 71: Excellent compression set resistance and stress relaxation properties

Benefits

  • PORON EVExtend 43 maintains constant pushback force, allowing designers to meet both beginning and end of life limits despite cell pouch expansion
  • Lower density PORON EVExtend 43 provides excellent pressure management solutions for pouch applications where conformability is still critical
  • Higher density PORON EVExtend 43 and PORON EVExtend 71 are firmer battery pad offerings that provide excellent pressure management solutions for higher energy density, rigid prismatic, and solid state cell application where consistent, higher pressure is required for cell performance
  • Excellent durability and long-term performance
  • Maintains original thickness and properties throughout the life of the battery
