PPG has pioneered dielectric powder for electric vehicles to enhance their safety. ENVIROCRON Extreme Protection Thermally Conductive Dielectric Powder Coating is engineered to provide thermal conductivity in a dielectric material to enhance safety and performance. Used instead of film and/or tape solutions, this product supports high throughput and automated application.

ENVIROCRON enables electric vehicle manufacturers to operate at the high level of automation and high-yields necessary to support the rapid growth in electric vehicle adoption. The powder coatings offer excellent electrical insulation performance and durability for long-term battery safety and thermal conductivity to enhance cooling efficiency.

The powder coatings are resistant to moisture ingress, creep and chemicals including Li-ion battery electrolytes. They are solvent-free for essentially zero air emissions during cure and generate almost no waste during application. And they are easy to automate for high-volume/high-yield manufacturing

PPG’s dielectric powder team dedicated significant thought and effort into overcoming technical challenges to deliver a new-to-market product that incorporates multiple critical functionalities into one robust and scalable product platform.
