If the battery pack protective cover becomes soft when heated and fails the flame retardant test, it is a hidden danger. Choosing the wrong temperature-resistant and flame-retardant battery pack protective cover is like playing with fire.
Softens when heated; failing the fire retardant test is a hidden danger.
Battery pack protective cases are "electrical and temperature-resistant components": heat-resistant, flame-retardant, and insulating. Materials must be heat-resistant, flame-retardant, and insulating—conclusion first: battery pack protective covers are mainly flame-retardant SEBS-based TPE; High-power batteries use flame-retardant TPU composite materials.
The biggest pitfall of battery pack protective covers: first determine the working conditions, then choose the material; the order cannot be reversed. If you choose the material before determining the working conditions, the order is reversed — the working conditions are the material selection sequence for the protective cover.
Battery pack protective covers are safety components: cracking and deformation are problems. Choose the right material, and the battery will be stable—these are safety components, don't skimp on material costs.
Why is TPE used for protective cases
Reasons for using TPE for battery pack protective cases: can withstand high temperatures, can be flame-retardant, can be insulating, high efficiency—combined, these four points make it suitable for protective cases.
Temperature resistance is key: the battery generates heat. Write the temperature resistance test into the acceptance—deformation is the problem.
Flame retardancy cannot be compromised: battery safety. Flame retardancy tests should be included in acceptance inspections—ignition is an accident.
Heat-resistant, flame-retardant insulation, three barriers
Heating condition: the battery is heating. Temperature resistance data must be tested—deformation means there is a problem.
Flame-retardant conditions: abnormal heating. Flame-retardant data must be verified—ignition is an accident.
Insulation condition: insulation protection. Insulation data must be checked—leakage, that's the problem.
Flame-retardant SEBS base or flame-retardant TPU? A table
| Dimension | SEBS base | TPU |
|---|
| Temperature resistant | Can do | Good |
| Flame retardant | Can do | Good |
| Insulation | Good | Good |
| Cost | middle | Medium-high |
| Wear-resistant | middle | Strong |
| Purpose | Regular | High power |
Table reading: TPU has good temperature resistance and flame retardancy but is expensive; SEBS is cost-effective — conventional batteries use SEBS base, high-power ones use TPU.
Select by power: high-power TPU, conventional SEBS base.
Guardian cover acceptance: first determine the working condition, then determine the material
| Order | Project | Explanation |
|---|
| One | Battery Type | Fixed operating conditions |
| Two | Fever temperature | Fixed temperature |
| Three | Flame retardant rating | Fixed flame retardant |
| Four | Assembly space | Set size |
How to read the table: Set the working conditions step by step, so the material selection order won’t be reversed—list temperature resistance, flame retardancy, and insulation first, so the material knows where to be selected.
Operating condition refers to the selection sequence of protective sleeves.
The order is reversed; three pits are water-resistant and fireproof.
Pitfall 1: The order is reversed. You choose the material first and then adjust the operating conditions; if it fails the flame retardancy test, you have to start over—set the operating conditions first.
Pitfall 2: Flame-retardant test omission. Fire—flame-retardant testing, must test.
Pitfall 3: False temperature resistance labeling. Deformation — temperature resistance should be accepted based on actual measurements.
Choose the protective case by first determining the working conditions
Three questions: battery type, heating temperature, flame retardant rating. One verification: actual conditions measured – three questions and one verification, supplier details clearly understood.
Operating condition verification must come first: the temperature rating and flame retardant requirements must be locked in first. Determine the operating conditions first, then discuss the price—operating conditions dictate the selection order of protective sleeves.
Making sample retention a habit: retain samples for each batch, and re-test temperature resistance and flame retardancy by batch. When changing materials between batches, compare first before increasing the volume—stable batches result in fewer customer complaints.
Battery pack protective case: Don't panic if something goes wrong, find the right one
| Phenomenon | Reason | Countermeasure |
|---|
| Transformation | Insufficient temperature resistance | Change to heat-resistant material |
| On fire | Insufficient flame retardancy | Change the fuel to flame retardant |
| electric leakage | Insufficient insulation | Replace insulation material |
| Cracking | Insufficient impact | Change to impact-resistant material |
| Batch Drift | Formula fluctuation | Lock window |
The mainstream protective case is made of flame-retardant SEBS-based TPE. The hot wire 750°C is the passing line, while energy storage components need to exceed 850°C. Temperature resistance is determined according to battery operating temperature, and the flame-retardant grade is determined based on the application scenario—first determine the working conditions, then select the material.
Flame-retardant SEBS is used for flexible coatings in high volumes, while flame-retardant TPU is used for high-power batteries. Standard batteries use SEBS, and high-power packs use TPU composite — choose according to power and temperature resistance.
If the protective cover deforms, first check the operating conditions; if the operating conditions are not determined, selecting the material will inevitably be biased. First determine the temperature zone, flame retardant level, and insulation requirements, then discuss the material—the order cannot be reversed.
Protective cover inspection: three items including flame retardant rating, temperature aging resistance, and insulation resistance. Thickness balances protection and heat dissipation, with export flame retardant and environmental standards checked by batch.
After adjusting the parameters to eliminate swelling, conduct a 1000-hour aging test at once, and the battery protective covers no longer deform in mass production. Samples from each batch are kept to test flame retardancy and temperature resistance, and when changing materials between batches, compare first before scaling up.
Choose the protective cover according to power and temperature resistance. Ordinary batteries use flame-retardant SEBS, high-power packs use TPU compound. First determine the insulation requirements for flame-retardant level in the temperature zone, then discuss materials. When checking deformation, first check the operating conditions; don’t reverse the order.
Scorching wires 750℃ passable energy storage parts over 850℃.
The three-piece set of flame retardant rating and insulation resistance is tested together. Thickness balances protection and heat dissipation. For export, flame retardancy and environmental protection are checked by batch, with samples retained from each batch to test flame retardancy and heat resistance.
Thickness balances protection and heat dissipation, and the export uses batch-controlled flame retardant and environmentally friendly standards. For each batch, samples are kept to test flame retardancy and heat resistance; first determine the flame retardant grade and insulation requirements for the temperature zone before discussing the material, the order cannot be reversed.
Cologne Customer Case: Insufficient oil resistance causing swelling and deformation, parameter adjustment after over 1000 hours of aging
A hardware tool factory in Yangzhou had an issue with their battery pack protective covers not being oil-resistant enough, causing them to swell and deform after being soaked in oil. Cologne collaborated to adjust the injection molding parameters (mold temperature/material temperature/holding pressure), eliminating the swelling, and passed the 1000-hour aging test on the first try. The parameter window was locked, stopping the swelling from the source — for oil resistance problems, first look at the formulation, then the parameters.
Summary
The selection of the battery pack protective cover should first determine the working conditions, then test for flame retardancy; the order of determining working conditions first and then selecting the material cannot be reversed, as working conditions take precedence.
