Composite Solutions for Electric, Hybrid, and New Energy Vehicles
Fire resistance
FLAMEVEX™ materials are not traditional thermosetting composites. Other solutions claim high levels of fire resistance by increasing the thickness of the piece, but this adds unnecessary weight. With FLAMEVEX™, IDI advances SMC to previously unknown levels of fire performance without compromising thickness, strength, or moldability.
Working with our Tier 1 OEM partners, IDI's FLAMEVEX materials were used on battery packs that passed the Chinese standard GB/T 31467.3 (aka China Bonfire test). Effectiveness at thicknesses as low as 2.5 mm has therefore been attested (with lower thicknesses in development). In addition, our materials meet certain thermal runaway specifications.
FLAMEVEX™ SMC is the ideal solution for:
-
Fire resistance
-
Strength; Rigidity
-
Lightweight
-
Dimensional stability
-
Electrical insulation
