Multilayer composite thermal barriers: Saint GobainRecent Research Landscape

Thermal runaway in high-density battery packs causes catastrophic failure and asset loss. This technology engineers a material phase transition into a ceramic barrier to arrest heat propagation.

What technical problems is Saint Gobain addressing in Multilayer composite thermal barriers?

High temperature structural degradation

(18)evidences

Uncontrolled heat transfer between battery cells or structural components leads to catastrophic failure. Preventing rapid thermal spread ensures safety in high-temperature environments.

Battery thermal runaway propagation

(2)evidences

Uncontrolled heat transfer between battery cells leads to cascading failure. Preventing this propagation ensures the integrity of the entire battery pack during a localized failure event.
