Custom Battery Coating Solutions: Tailoring Success in the Battery Industry

In the dynamic battery industry, where applications range from electric vehicles (EVs) to energy storage systems and portable electronics, one size does not fit all. Custom battery coating solutions have emerged as a crucial factor in meeting the unique requirements of different battery applications, ensuring optimal performance, safety, and durability.

Lankwitzer, a prominent player in the battery coating market, has been at the forefront of providing custom battery coating solutions. At the 3rd eic Three - Electric and Energy Storage “Insulation, Flame Retardancy, Heat Insulation, and Sealing” Technology Conference in 2024, Lankwitzer showcased its latest custom battery coating solutions. The company emphasized its commitment to understanding the specific needs of clients and developing tailored coating solutions to address their challenges.

Lankwitzer’s Evoprotect455UV series is a prime example of its custom battery coating prowess. The Evoprotect455UV (UE55 - 0500/0), developed over three years, entered production in 2018. With a production volume exceeding 4,000 tons and an initial operation pass rate of over 98%, it has been widely adopted on 24 cell - coating production lines in Germany and China, coating more than 500 million battery cells. This product was customized to meet the high - performance requirements of the EV and energy storage sectors. Its excellent electrical insulation properties prevent short - circuits, a critical safety concern in lithium - ion batteries. In EVs, where high - voltage systems are involved, this feature is essential to prevent catastrophic failures.

For the energy storage market, Lankwitzer customized the Evoprotect455UV series to enhance the batteries’ ability to withstand harsh environmental conditions. The coatings enable energy storage batteries to endure 1,000 hours of high - temperature and high - humidity aging tests. This ensures the long - term stability and reliability of energy storage systems, which are often exposed to extreme weather conditions.

Cost - effectiveness is another advantage of Lankwitzer’s custom battery coating solutions. The coatings have a remarkable recycling performance, with a comprehensive utilization rate of up to 95%. This significantly reduces waste and cuts down costs for clients. The production cycle of Lankwitzer’s coating process can meet 50 - 60 ppm, ensuring high production efficiency. Moreover, Lankwitzer’s Shanghai Testing Center has established a full - process spraying line. This not only helps clients save the investment in building a UV spraying trial - production line but also provides customized spraying services, further optimizing costs.

In the portable electronics sector, Lankwitzer offers custom battery coating solutions that focus on reducing weight while maintaining high performance. These coatings improve the adhesion between electrodes and electrolytes, optimizing ion transfer during charging and discharging. As a result, portable electronics can achieve faster charging speeds and longer battery life.

Thanks to its custom battery coating solutions, Lankwitzer has provided coatings for over 450 million commercial battery cells. These cells are installed in more than 2 million electric vehicles and plug - in hybrid vehicles, as well as various energy storage systems and portable electronics, covering global markets. As the battery industry continues to evolve, Lankwitzer’s innovative custom battery coating solutions will play an even more significant role in driving the industry forward.
