Compared with other foam materials, Inoue foam has advantages in the application of new energy vehicles.
Compared with other foam materials, inoue foam has the following application advantages in new energy vehicles:
Excellent physical performance:
Strong compression deformation resistance: Inoue CR foam, for example, has long-lasting elasticity, can maintain good shape recovery ability under long-term pressure, and provides long-term and stable shock protection for parts of new energy vehicles. Compared with some ordinary foam materials, it is not easy to be permanently deformed after repeated compression, which can ensure that batteries, electronic equipment, etc. are not affected by vibration during vehicle driving.
Excellent cushioning performance: it can effectively absorb and disperse the impact force, which can play a good role in preventing the battery cells from being damaged due to vibration collision between battery packs, or reducing the vibration transmission during driving in parts such as the car body and chassis, and the cushioning effect it provides is helpful to improve the stability and comfort of the whole vehicle.
Moderate density: there are products with different densities to choose from, which can meet the needs of different parts of new energy vehicles. For example, low-density inoue foam can be used in interior parts that need to be lightweight, and a slightly higher-density type can be used where certain support strength and sealing performance are needed, and its density distribution is uniform, ensuring the consistency of performance.
Good chemical stability:
Good weather resistance: it can adapt to various complicated climatic conditions during the use of new energy vehicles, and has stable performance in high temperature, low temperature, humidity, ultraviolet radiation and other environments, and is not easy to age, crack or deteriorate. For example, when it is parked outdoors for a long time or used in different seasons, its sealing and buffering properties will not be obviously affected, and compared with some foam with poor weather resistance, it can greatly prolong its service life.
Strong chemical corrosion resistance: It has good tolerance to various chemical substances that may come into contact with the interior of the automobile, such as lubricating oil, cooling liquid, cleaning agent, etc., and will not swell and embrittle due to contact with these substances, thus ensuring the performance reliability in the whole service life of the automobile.
Low toxicity and environmental protection: it does not contain harmful toxic substances and will not release gases or volatiles harmful to human body, which meets the high requirements of new energy vehicles for environmental protection in the car, provides a healthy environment for drivers and passengers, and has little impact on the environment during production, use and disposal.
Excellent functional features:
Good flame retardant performance: the flame retardant grade of some inoue foam can reach UL94-HF1 and other standards, which can effectively prevent the fire from spreading and reduce the fire risk when encountering high temperature or open flame, which is very important for the safety of key parts such as battery system of new energy vehicles, and can provide higher safety guarantee for vehicles compared with some flammable foam materials.
Reliable insulation performance: it has good electrical insulation performance, which can prevent short circuit between charged parts such as battery pack and other metal parts or car body, ensure the normal operation of electrical system, reduce potential safety hazards, and its stability in insulation performance also ensures that it can continue to play a role in the long-term use of vehicles.
Excellent sealing performance: it can fill all kinds of irregular gaps to form a good sealing effect, prevent dust, moisture and noise from entering the interior of the car, protect the battery pack and electronic equipment from the external environment, and improve the overall sealing performance and protection level of the car. For example, in the sealing of the battery pack, it can effectively prevent liquid and dust from entering and ensure the performance and life of the battery.
