Battery and Fuel Cell Coolants

While traditional GLYSANTIN^® products used in ICE are also suitable for hybrid technologies and indirectly cooled BEV, new dedicated products for FCEV and BEV (direct and indirect cooling) have been developed. GLYSANTIN^® FC G20^® ELECTRIFIED^® is a coolant especially developed for FCEV with a low electrical conductivity. Compared to noninhibited glycol/water mixtures, the product maintains constant low electrical conductivity, securing corrosion protection and the electrical safety of the system. GLYSANTIN^® G22^® ELECTRIFIED^® is BASF's first premium engine coolant developed specifically for indirectly cooled BEV. The ready-to-use coolant delivers a low electrical conductivity and maintains low and stable currents when exposed to a voltage source. This translates into low fluid decomposition and low generation of hydrogen, making it a safety optimized product, while ensuring optimal corrosion protection.
