Thermal Safety Design

Improve the operating efficiency of lithium-ion batteries through thermal management,  improve battery safety and reliability, slow down battery aging rate, and extend battery life

Based on the cell temperature distribution with lithium dendrites formation, to evaluate the safety risk during charging process.

Based on cell heat production, gas production and particle ejection to match corresponding protection design

Aerogel pad between cells
Mica sheet on module
Silicon tape on busbar to prevent short circuit

Thermal management optimization prevents heat conduction between cells and reduces the risk of thermal runaway.

Electrical insulation is enhanced to effectively isolate current leakage between the module and the housing or other components.

Short circuit risk is reduced to prevent short circuits caused by accidental contact and improve system safety.

Provide structural protection, provide certain buffering and support, and extend service life.

Thermal Runaway Protection Design

LCM strategy, optimize battery cut-off voltage to reduce cell safety risks and extend useful life
