Rinspeed concept car uses innovative polyurethane foam technology to achieve sound/heat insulation

According to foreign media reports, Swiss polyurethane foam expert FoamPartner is cooperating with Swiss Rinspeed automotive company (Rinspeed) to develop advanced concepts for future mobility. The microSNAP concept car developed by Rinspeed demonstrates the potential of innovative foam technology for automotive interiors, sound insulation and thermal insulation.

The microSNAP concept car was unveiled at the Consumer Electronics Show in Las Vegas earlier this year. Show), and recently, the car was unveiled at the Geneva Motor Show. The car uses several innovative foam technology solutions. FoamPartner specializes in solutions for high-quality, low-emission, low-odor applications based on polyester-based polyurethane and polyether-based polyurethane foams, both produced by its Acoustic and Thermal Solutions (A&TS) business unit and Automotive The interior (such as roof, door panels and armrests, etc.) business unit Automotive Rolls (AR) is developed.

Although engine sound insulation is very important for traditional internal combustion locomotives, it is not so good for relatively quiet electric vehicles. There is an increasing need to reduce wheel rotation and wind noise. At the same time, thermal insulation is becoming increasingly important to protect electric vehicle batteries from hot and cold temperatures and to minimize battery energy consumption from heating and air conditioning. In addition to making car interiors more beautiful, polyurethane foam (PU foam) can also provide sound insulation and heat insulation, making it an indispensable material in the next generation of electric vehicles.
