Battery Pack Thermal Propagation Control Strategies in Electric Vehicles Using SpreaderShield™ Flexible Graphic
An emerging trend over the last two to three years has been to add layers of thermal insulation and flame/gas impingement barriers between the pouch and prismatic format cells in a battery pack to prevent thermal propagation. This passive thermal management solution has been shown to effectively prevent propagation without adding excessive weight to the battery. The obvious downside of this method is that the battery cells are surrounded by insulation, and there is no easy path for the internal heat of the cells to spread to the environment outside of the pack. How do you fix the problems caused by using an insulation-only strategy? It’s simple: Add NeoGraf Solutions’ SpreaderShield™ thin, flexible, and lightweight graphite heat spreader to the battery pack. [...] Learn More

GraFoil® material was first introduced in 1967 as the original flexible graphite technology. This graphite foil was quickly utilized as the first fluid sealing material made exclusively from pure, natural graphite flake. Its resistance to heat, fire, corrosion, and aggressive chemicals makes it the most universally applicable sealing solution in the market today.
eGraf® SpreaderShield™ flexible graphite heat spreader materials are a unique line of products capable of cooling a hot component, protecting a temperature-sensitive component, reducing a thermal gradient, or preventing a surface hot spot. SpreaderShield flexible graphite is a thermal material ideal for a wide range of electronics applications, from the thinnest and lightest smartphones to high-power devices.
GrafGuard® expandable graphite flake is a non-halogenated fire retardant additive for materials that require improved fire-protection characteristics. It can be found in building materials and automotive applications to meet increasingly stringent fire safety codes. GrafGuard materials also improve the performance of fire-retardant additives such as phosphates, magnesium hydroxide and nitrogen compounds.
