The absorbent battery pads of Freudenberg capture and store unwanted liquids inside the packs quickly and reliably. Freudenberg Performance Materials, Weinheim/Germany, will present battery pack liquid absorbers, an innovative solution that makes battery systems safer, at this year's Battery Show on June 28-30, 2022, in Stuttgart/Germany. With adjustable absorption capacity and geometries, battery pack liquid absorbers ensure long-lasting battery packs.
Battery packs are the core elements of mobile and stationary lithium-ion energy storage systems, and are used in automotive and industrial applications. The performance and lifespan of these components are largely responsible for the efficiency of the energy storage system. Moisture inside the packs, such as condensation water or leaking coolant, can considerably diminish both function and lifespan. Battery pack liquid absorbers act as a safety system: the special fleece quickly takes up condensate or coolant and stores it effectively.
