Thermal runaway and thermal propagation on lithium-ion batteries
The use of lithium-ion batteries, which are now increasingly being used in the fast-growing electromobility segment, is currently one of the greatest safety challenges in electric vehicles, but also in many other areas of industry.
Damage caused by the thermal runaway of a cell (thermal runaway) and the multiplication of a thermal event from cell to cell (thermal propagation) in a battery must be avoided in order to make traction batteries safer.
"Thermal runaway" material
Taking into account the current standards and legal situation for thermal propagation and taking into account aspects of functional safety in connection with thermal propagation, Dr. Dietrich Müller GmbH presents various materials.
In our article Thermal Runaway: Battery and battery protection we propose different possibilities.
