How do you Prevent and Manage Thermal Runaway?

There are three types of mattery damage that can cause thermal runaway

Thermal
Electrical
Mechanical
Thermal Runaway prevention starts with optimized design, but all also requires components that protect against thermal runaway propagation.

Thermal Runaway occurs when heat generated by a battery exceeds the amount of heat being dissipated.

Multi-functional, complex battery component solutions designed for cell-to-cell application absorb impact, vibration and movement, dissipate cell heat, and act as a flame or heat barrier and isolator if a catastrophic event were to occur.

Electrical and Thermal Insulation Layer
Heat Insulation and Compression Layer
Flame Retardant Bonding Layer
Flame Barrier in between cells prevent fire from reaching other components if thermal runaway occurs.
