PCM OP43 | Organic PCM for Lithium-Ion Battery Thermal Management
OP43 is a smart solution for keeping things cool when temperatures rise above normal. This phase change material works by storing and releasing heat, helping sensitive products stay safe and steady. It’s a great fit for lithium-ion batteries, which can get damaged if they get too hot. By adding this PCM, battery makers can protect their systems, improve performance, and make them last longer. PCM OP43 helps make sure everything runs smoothly, even in tough conditions.

Frequently Asked Question
What is PCM OP43 and what does it do?
OP43 is an organic phase change material designed for high-temperature thermal management. It stores and releases heat to stabilize temperature, particularly useful for applications like lithium-ion battery cooling.
How long can OP43 maintain temperature control / thermal buffering?
The holdover or thermal stabilization duration depends on external ambient conditions, system design (insulation, heat transfer paths), and thermal load (how much heat must be absorbed).
Is OP43 reusable / how many cycles can it endure?
Yes — OP43 is designed to perform through repeated thermal cycles while retaining performance. The exact cycle life depends on temperature stress, handling, and application conditions.
How should OP43 be “charged” / preconditioned before use?
Prior to operation, OP43 must be brought to a suitable initial thermal state (i.e. heated or conditioned) so it is ready to absorb heat during use. Proper thermal conditioning ensures optimal performance in the application.
Can I get samples to test OP43 in my system?
Yes — the page provides a “Request Sample” option for customers to evaluate OP43 in their own devices or systems before placing larger orders.
