Ensure long-term protection of battery systems
PFINDER solutions reliably protect against corrosion and stone chipping
Battery systems in battery electric vehicles (BEVs) are exposed to high levels of moisture and direct stone impact due to their location close to the ground. Moisture must not be allowed to reach the electrical components of battery systems, so the sealing points must be specially protected.

Challenge
- Battery and fuel cell modules must be protected from corrosion
- Stone chips due to position on the underbody of the vehicle
- Coatings must not be fire-promoting
- Different components place different requirements on protective coatings
Solution
- New solvent- and label-free product range
- Corrosion and stone chip protection with properties specially adapted for battery applications
Benefit
- PFINDER products reliably protect against corrosion and stone chipping
- PFINDER products can be applied efficiently without energy costs during drying
Case Studies
Protection of battery system seals
Moisture must not be allowed to reach the electrical components in battery systems, so the sealing points must be specially protected.
Protection of cavities in battery systems
In battery systems, aluminum extrusions are needed for battery stiffness and are often combined with other materials, which can lead to accelerated corrosion.
Protection of battery system screws
Moisture must not be allowed to reach the electrical components in battery systems, so the sealing points must be specially protected.
Protection of battery system underbodies
Battery boxes are among the most sensitive areas in the vehicle. Their underbodies must therefore not only be protected from corrosion initiated by isolated stone chips, but also withstand constant stress.
