Abstract: A UV curable dielectric coating is described. The curable coating can include one of more acrylate monomers, a urethane prepolymer, a crosslinker, at least one adhesion promoter, a photoinitiator, and optionally one or more fillers and/or additives. The coating can be used to insulate battery cells and battery packs, such as those used in electric vehicles. The coatings can be easily applied and quickly cured. The cured coatings can have high adhesion strength, even after exposure to wet conditions.

Abstract: A composition for use in modifying the adhesion properties of silicone rubber compositions is described. The composition comprises alkoxy silanes, such as alkoxy silanes further comprising additional chemical functional groups such as epoxides, esters, and anhydrides; diffusion promoters that are completely or partially immiscible in the silicone rubber composition being modified; and compounds that can balance the hydride content of the silicone rubber compositions being modified. Modified curable silicone rubber compositions and methods of modifying the adhesive properties of silicone rubber compositions are also described. In particular, use of the presently disclosed compositions can provide modified silicone rubber compositions having selective adhesion for surfaces comprising thermoplastic and thermoset polymers as compared to metal surfaces.
