The present invention relates to water-based coatings compositions containing low volatiles and high resistance to the dirt grip. Such compositions contain conventional low VOC coalescing latexes which favor the evolution of hardness of films of inks and films of polymers by providing coatings with high resistance to the catch of dirt that can be used in various applications. Such coalescents are predominantly diesters with a boiling point greater than 260° C., preferably boiling point greater than 280° C., and molecular weight between 230 and 342 atomic mass units prepared from diacid and alcohol or monoacid reactions and diols.

A thermal interface material coating method for battery cells is disclosed. According to the present invention, a coating system comprising a rotating mechanism, a slot die coater and a substrate is provided so as to be adopted for coating a TIM material onto at least one battery cell. Particularly, the substrate is a meshed plate including a plurality of pores. As such, in case of a coating fluid flow rate of a slit nozzle of the slot die coater, a rotation speed of the rotation mechanism, a thickness of the substrate, and a pore size of the substrate all having been properly designed, it is able to form a TIM film having a laterally-uniform thickness on the battery cell by using the coating system.
