Energy-Storage.news proudly presents our sponsored webinar with Argent International, ‘New Ways to Improve BESS Thermal and Dielectric Performance.’
This on demand session is intended for engineers and other decision-makers in the BESS manufacturing industry focused on designing systems that maximise energy density while ensuring safety and manufacturing efficiency. Attendees will learn how pressure-sensitive-adhesive (PSA) tape solutions can help them achieve those ends.
The session is presented by Argent, a premier US-based precision die-cut converter, and special guests Avery Dennison, a leading global manufacturer of high-performance PSA tapes.
PSA tape solutions can be used to enhance flame retardancy, add dielectric strength, reduce NVH, and bond materials. They have a long track record of success in demanding industries such as automotive, aerospace, transportation, electronic, medical, and more. And they have significant potential to address these challenges in BESS applications.

The session starts with an overview of PSA tape fundamentals — including adhesive formulation, facestocks and conversion processes. Next, it explores how BESS engineers can collaborate with the PSA tape value chain to develop customised material solutions for challenges such as thermal runaway prevention, electrical insulation, and bonding and sealing.
It then provides greater detail regarding BESS-specific applications for PSA tapes, including ways the technology can be used to bond heat shielding and thermal runaway mitigation materials, enhance cell venting systems, create electrically insulative barriers, prevent exposure to the environment, and manage wiring, all while improving manufacturing efficiency. Use-case examples will highlight how anisotropic tapes function to enable directional venting, and how custom liner configurations optimise design for manufacturing (DFM) by integrating with automated assembly lines.
Gain a working knowledge of PSA tape technology, an understanding of BESS applications for tapes, and a clear framework for taking a BESS/PSA-tape project from initial concept and prototype testing through to seamless, scaled, domestic and global production.
