Description

Technical Field

[0002] As an energy carrier capable of converting chemical energy into electrical energy, lithium-ion batteries are widely used in new energy vehicles, energy storage grids, aerospace, and other fields due to their advantages such as high operating voltage, high specific energy, and long cycle life. However, in recent years, fires and explosions involving lithium-ion batteries have become increasingly common, especially in new energy vehicles and energy storage. To meet the demands of operating voltage and power, hundreds of cells are often connected in series and parallel for centralized use. In this situation, if a cell in the battery module experiences thermal runaway, it may lead to thermal runaway of the entire battery module, ultimately causing a fire or explosion of the entire battery system.

[0003] Currently, OEMs primarily use mica sheets to prevent battery thermal runaway. This is because mica sheets are resistant to high-temperature flame impact, and they are highly insulating, acid and alkali resistant, easy to process, and inexpensive, making them highly favored by OEMs. Currently, OEMs mainly use single-layer or multi-layer composite mica sheets. Although mica sheets have many advantages, their high thermal conductivity and poor insulation performance lead to poor thermal runaway management between battery cells. To address this issue, we have designed a high-temperature resistant, low-thermal-conductivity, highly insulating, and easily processable nano-mica composite insulation sheet. Utility Model Content
