Our Industries

We are TSG Resolute

TSG Resolute works actively in the appliance, lighting, automotive and the general industrial industries. We work with engineers in these industries to solve problems and to help build better products as efficiently as possible. TSG Resolute does this through expert experience in the following die cut materials: adhesives, bonding tapes, electrical insulators, thermal insulation, acoustical insulation, foams, cellular and solid rubber, thermal interface materials, brightness enhancement films, reflectors, plastic extrusions, and variety of different fiberglass or high temperature insulation materials.

EV (Electric Vehicles)

TSG Resolute provides die cut solutions for the EV (Electrical Vehicle) Market to solve “Thermal Runway”, “Thermal Management”, “Electrical Insulation”, and “Battery Assembly” challenges.

Thermal Runaway challenges vary depending on cell types and designs. TSG provides solutions to prevent neighboring cells from the energy given off by a failed that can cause a thermal runaway situation. This is done by using barrier materials above cell batteries, between cell batteries, underlid and between modules. These materials are fire retardant, thermal insulators and electrically insulators. They have great arc and track resistance, low moisture absorption, and they can be die cut to almost any shape to fit the battery design.

3M™ Flame Barrier Material FRB-NT– is an inorganic-based, halogen-free material. It features a UL 94 5VA flame rating (UL File E65069) and is available in various thicknesses, providing good dielectric strength. 3M FRB-NT provides excellent ignitability resistance, as well as excellent arc and track resistance. It is dimensionally stable (low moisture absorption and low shrinkage at high temperature).
Battery Compression Pads and Cushions-Microcellular Polyurethane– cushioning between the battery cells helps with cell expansion. These materials creates a very consistent level of force across a range of compressions.
ProCell™ EV Firewall– these material delays thermal propagation in batteries. Can help to prevent thermal runaway in a small scale nail penetration testing.

Thermal Management materials for electric vehicles can help extend the range and life of the battery. These conformable and compressible materials fill the space between the battery pack lid and the gaps between batteries helping to keep the batteries temperature in an optimum range. This will reduce the draw from battery power required for cooling and minimize the warm up time for heating systems.

Cooling Plate Spring Pads- elastomeric springs to maintain close contract between the cooling plate and the battery.
Pouch Cell Pads- holds components in place while withstanding dimensional changes to the pouch cells.

Electrical Insulation-looking for a material with flexibility and dielectric strength, TSG offers a variety of different materials including that can be die cut for your design that include Polyproylene, Polycarbonate, PET, Kapton, Thermavolt, FRB-NT.

Battery Assembly-3M double sided tapes are used for assembly. They are excellent when bonding two different materials that have different thermal expansion rates. VHB is extremely lightweight and has the ability to expand and contract while maintaining bond strength, along with the ability to permanently bond make it an ideal material for structural assembly of EV batteries. They are easily die cut for ease of use.

Battery Housing Seal-Silicones seal out water, dust, and debris and provide protection over the lifetime of the battery.
Anti-Vibration Pads – vibrations need to be managed within the battery pack and between the pack and the vehicle.
3M™VHB Bonding
Cell to Cell Bonding- Pressure Sensitive Adhesive for bonding cells together. A quick way to provide quick and strong structural integrity for the an EV Battery pack. Flame retardant and dielectric tapes are available for EV battery applications.

Appliance

TSG Resolute offers the broadest solutions and the widest range of materials for the appliance industry. Within the appliance industry, we find innovative ways to serve our customers. We have die cut materials for heat management solutions; we have also helped sealing and gasketing challenges by proper material selection; and we solve acoustic problems with insulation and vibration-dampening materials. TSG Resolute’s material selection is important to the quality of our work, and we offer tape and bonding solutions that create a streamlined look in the appliance, minimize labor, and create a stronger bond than welding or liquid adhesives.
