Cooper Standard’s Thermoplastic Thermal Management Solution for Battery Electric Vehicles Wins SPE® Automotive Innovation Award

Cooper Standard’s Thermoplastic BEV Thermal Management Solution was honored in the Materials category. The solution involves two developments that provide a lightweight, thermoplastic solution for BEV thermal management systems. The two developments are:

  • Cooper Standard’s PlastiCool® 2000 multilayer tubing for glycol applications that reach 120°C, which provides excellent chemical resistance, 25% better permeation resistance and 60% lower weight than EPDM (ethylene propylene diene monomer). It is available in smooth, convoluted, round and non-round configurations.

  • Ergo-Lock™+ connectors, which are designed to meet the growing demands of diverse powertrains. Ergo-Lock+ provides performance and product feature enhancements – flexibility, visual and scannable latch verification, and reduced insertion forces by more than 30% (versus traditional VDA connectors). The system’s modularity permits hundreds of connector configurations to be produced from a standard set of molded subcomponents at lower total cost.

The SPE Automotive Innovation Awards program honors the best companies in automotive plastics. Category and Grand Award winners were selected from a group of finalists by a group of journalists, academics, and retired industry chief engineers.
