White Papers

There is no uniform way that manufacturers are attacking EV thermal management challenges. And no catch-all thermal management material that has emerged as the clear leader in the electric vehicle space. Each has its pluses and minuses that every manufacturer will need to evaluate as it relates to its own pack design.

The solutions, however, can be cataloged into four discrete buckets which can be used individually or as part of a combined solution. These are immersion, isolation, insulation, and spreading.  Learn more in this whitepaper. 

This paper explores how pressure-sensitive adhesive tapes can play a pivotal role in helping manufacturers of Electric Vehicles, Batteries, and Energy Storage Systems address critical performance challenges. It also highlights the production efficiency-enhancing benefits that an engineering-driven flexible materials converter and die cutter, like JBC Technologies can offer. 

JBC Technologies works with many materials that solve critical challenges for noise, vibration, and harshness (NVH). Customers engage us at multiple phases in product development from early in the design stage to late in the game, when the product is ready to launch and a buzz, squeak or rattle has been discovered.  

This article touches on the science of sound, provides high level insight into performance material options, and hits on five ways the right converter can positively impact your outcomes.

The most important thing to know when selecting a skin contact adhesive for a long-term wearable medical device is that there is no one-size-fits-all solution. Strong yet gentle can be a tricky combination. A systems approach that examines all design and performance variables is necessary to ensure components work together to achieve the desired outcome.

This paper will highlight the key points to keep in mind throughout the product development process and serves as a guide to assist with adhesive selection.

With the Corporate Average Fuel Economy (CAFE) standards requiring improved fuel efficiency, lighter vehicles are a priority. This focus on automotive lightweighting means heavy heat shields don’t always measure up.

This white paper from JBC Technologies delves into the problem of hot spots and how to solve them.

Does UL certification matter for custom die-cut parts? The short answer is: it depends.  UL certification of custom die-cut parts depends on many factors, including the application, the market, and regulatory requirements. In this whitepaper we'll look at UL certification, what it is, what it means for custom die-cut parts and the many benefits of obtaining UL certification. 

Nowadays, appliances do it all. They’ve become centerpieces for kitchens, function as entertainment centers and even connect to virtual assistants.  Yet, the sensitive electronic components that power the interconnected and improved user experience of these devices are also increasingly susceptible to the challenges associated with Electromagnetic interference (EMI) and radio frequency interference (RFI).

The good news is that in many cases all of this can be addressed with a piece of custom die-cut specialty tape.  This article addresses how.
