Ester-based fluids for electric vehicles
Join EV fluid
experts from Cargill who will be discussing the role that ester base fluids
have in formulating high performance dielectric fluids. Topics covered will
include challenges in EV thermal management, methods of cooling, choosing the
right cooling fluid and the advantages that esters can bring when formulating
fluids for electric vehicles.
Bethan is a Lead Applications Scientist working within Cargill Energy
Technologies.
After graduating from the University of York in 2014 with a master’s
degree in chemistry she went on to study for a PhD at the University of Leeds,
looking at the interaction between automatic transmission fluid additives and
copper surfaces. Since 2018, Bethan’s work has focussed on the changing
lubrication requirements for electric vehicles and the development of
dielectric cooling fluids for automotive batteries.
