Component and method for producing a component
The aim of the invention is to provide a component, preferably a component for a vehicle, which is as stable as possible and which has an optimized electromagnetic compatibility. This is achieved by providing a component comprising a base element, which comprises or is made of at least one composite element, and a shielding element for electrically and/or electromagnetically shielding the component, wherein the shielding element comprises or is made of one or more foils, for example one or more metal foils, and is connected to the base element.
1 . A component, wherein the component comprises the following:
a base element which comprises or is made of at least one composite element, wherein at least one of the at least one composite elements comprises or is made of a polymer matrix material and a fiber material,
wherein the base element is a sandwich element comprising or made of a separating layer element, a first layer element and a second layer element, the separating layer element being arranged between the first layer element and the second layer element;
a shielding element for electrically and/or electromagnetically shielding the component,
wherein the shielding element comprises or is made of one or more foils and is connected to the base element,
wherein the shielding element is connected to the base element via a connecting element of the component,
wherein the connecting element comprises or is made of a first polymer material, wherein a melting point of the first polymer material of the connecting element is at least approximately 10° C. lower than a melting point of the polymer matrix material of at least one or all of the composite elements,
wherein the first polymer material comprises or is made of a thermoplastically processable polymer material, and wherein the thermoplastically processable polymer material comprises or is made of a random copolymer polypropylene.
2 . The component in accordance with claim 1 , wherein the fiber material is an endless fiber material and/or a long fiber material.
3 . The component in accordance with claim 1 , wherein the shielding element comprises or is made of aluminum or an aluminum alloy.
4 . The component in accordance with claim 1 , wherein the shielding element has an average thickness of approximately 0.02 mm or more and/or approximately 1.2 mm or less.
5 . The component in accordance with claim 1 , wherein the connecting element is an adhesive layer.
6 . The component in accordance with claim 1 , wherein the component is a part of a housing of a battery module; and/or a part of a housing of a battery cell and/or a vehicle underbody or a part thereof.
7 . The component in accordance with claim 1 , wherein the separating layer element is a core element.
8 . The component in accordance with claim 1 , wherein the separating layer element is a foil and/or wherein the separating layer element comprises or is made of one or more of the following materials: polyolefin, thermoplastic elastomer and ethylene-propylene-diene rubber.
9 . The component in accordance with claim 1 , wherein the shielding element comprises a plurality of foils or a foil package.
10 . The component in accordance with claim 1 , wherein the polymer matrix material of at least one or all of the composite elements is or comprises a corresponding homopolymer of the random copolymer.
