Top 5 insulation materials for EV busbar
Busbars are one of the common elements used in EV powertrains. With their enormous current carrying capacity and rigidity, they have largely replaced traditional cabling from electric vehicles. They can also carry a higher amount of current per cross-section compared to traditional cabling, and a single busbar can carry both power and signal for electrical […]
Top 5 Types of Batteries Used in EVs
Batteries and the range are two things most people ask about whenever they hear about a new electric vehicle. Even with advances in battery technology leading to faster charging and increased power density, range anxiety is still a concern among potential EV owners. Over the years, many different types of batteries have been developed […]

Top 5 Quality Problems in Insulations Used for EV Busbar
It’s no surprise that EV manufacturers are shifting from traditional cabling to busbars for supplying electricity across the vehicle. Unlike vehicles running on fossil fuels, EVs can’t be recharged in a jiffy and hence it’s important to prevent wasting electricity. And busbars do a way better job than traditional cables. They provide a higher electrical […]
Mica Sheets for EV Battery Thermal Runaway Protection
Even as EVs become popular, range anxiety still holds back customers. Batteries cannot be recharged as quickly as fossil fuel vehicles can be recharged. One of the main reasons for this is temperature management; hot batteries can slow down charging and can even cause thermal runaway reactions. Mica sheets are one of the popular materials […]
What is Mica?
By definition, mica is a compound of silicate minerals that display similar physical and chemical composition. They are classified as principal rock-forming minerals. Muscovite and Phlogopite are most common forms of mica used in commercial settings. The perfect basal cleavage attribute of micas allow the crystals to be split into very thin sheets […]
