Housing for electrical power cells in electrically driven automotive vehicles

摘要

A housing suitable to comprise multiple electrical power cells in electrically driven motor vehicles comprises at least one lower receiving part and one upper covering part. Both parts fit together and create inside a hollow space. Both parts are prepared from a multilayered material comprising at least one support layer of thermoplastic polymer and at least one cover layer of metal adhering to each other. Such housing is perfectly suitable to protect the power cells inside against mechanical damage and against the influence of fire and/or electromagnetic radiation.

1. A battery housing for electrically-driven motor vehicles comprising:
(a) a support layer, wherein the support layer has a thickness is in the range from 1 to 20 mm, and wherein the support layer comprises:
(i) 40 to 99%, based on the total weight of the support layer, of a thermoplastic polymer, and(ii) 1 to 60%, based on the total weight of the support layer, of a reinforcing filler; (b) a cover layer, wherein the cover layer comprises a metal having a thickness from 50 to 1000 μm, and wherein the cover layer comprises metals selected from the group consisting of aluminum, iron, a noble metal, silver, and chromium; (c) an intermediate layer directly contacting both the support layer and the cover layer, said intermediate layer has a thickness of 0.005 mm to 0.5 mm, wherein the intermediate layer is saturated with a resin such that the weight of the intermediate layer is in the range of 30 to 70 g/m2, and wherein said resin is selected from the group consisting of acrylate resins, phenolic resins, urea resins, and melamine resins.
