Abstract
On January 17, 2024, Freudenberg Sealing Technologies announced offering a new class of materials, intended to improve fire protection in electric vehicle drives. Its name is “Quantix ULTRA” and it reportedly resists melting even at extreme temperatures of up to 1,200 degrees Celsius. Processing the material in injection molding is claimed to be both versatile and economical. Given that today's vehicles call for lightweight construction, its lower density compared to metallic materials should be an advantage. The first series application is now underway, as a flame protection barrier for cooling system parts in an electric car's lithium-ion battery.
