Polymers can be molded into complex shapes, enabling the development of custom battery configurations that can fit into limited spaces.
Polymers can be processed at a lower cost than metals, reducing overall material expenses.
Moreover, the ability to mold polymers into complex shapes reduces the need for additional parts, simplifying battery pack assembly and lowering labor costs.

Food contact: Need for food contact compliant materials in household appliances.
When a lower-performing pigment is used in a material that is processed at a high temperature, the results are not pretty… the material often turns black or degrades.
The metal used for FFF dies depends on the polymer: unfilled materials can use softer brass dies, while fiber-reinforced materials need harder steel to prevent premature wear.
