Low conductivity dielectric coolant: BASFRecent Research Landscape

Electrical leakage in high-voltage thermal management systems causes catastrophic component failure and safety risks. These fluids utilize specific chemical formulations to maintain high resistivity while ensuring efficient heat transfer.

What technical problems is BASF addressing in Low conductivity dielectric coolant?

Excessive electrical leakage current

(12)evidences

High electrical conductivity in cooling fluids leads to parasitic current loss and catastrophic component failure. Eliminating conductivity prevents short circuits in direct-contact electronics cooling.

Internal combustion engine deposit formation

(9)evidences

Carbonaceous residue and asphaltene buildup cause mechanical fouling and fuel system inefficiency. Mitigating these deposits prevents engine degradation and maintains fuel flow integrity.

Electrical discharge surface damage

(6)evidences

Insufficient electrical conductivity in dielectric fluids leads to static charge accumulation. Preventing discharge events protects system components from catastrophic electrical failure.
