Adhesive tape solutions for thermal interface materials in EV batteries

Avery Dennison offers multiple bonding solutions for thermal interface materials (TIMs). TIMs are a crucial component in EV batteries as they facilitate the transfer of heat between components in the assembly.


Pressure-sensitive adhesives for TIMs

Avery Dennison offers multiple adhesive bonding solutions for TIMs bonded to either heat sink or chiller plate materials to assist with battery cell and battery module cooling. 

  • Two, high wet-out adhesives to lower thermal impedance between TIM and heat source
    • A silicone-based pressure-sensitive adhesive offering excellent adhesion to silicone TIMs in EV batteries
    • An acrylic-based pressure-sensitive adhesive offering excellent adhesion to non-silicone based TIMs
  • Flame-retardant adhesives tested in accordance with UL® 94 V-0
