What is Thermal Break?
Thermal break refers to the strategic incorporation of non-conductive materials within battery module designs to maintain stability during rapid acceleration and frequent charging/discharging cycles, ultimately enhancing battery safety. This thermal management approach is crucial for preserving battery performance and longevity.

Importance of Thermal Break Materials
Without adequate thermal insulation, batteries are prone to overheating, which can significantly reduce their lifespan and potentially lead to thermal runaway. Thermal runaway is a dangerous chain reaction that can result in battery fires or explosions, posing serious safety risks.
Advanced Thermal Break Material: AS17-s
AS17-s is an exemplary thermal break material composed of a composite of porous silica, alumina, and other materials.
Extremely low thermal conductivity: 0.0028 W/m·K
High temperature resistance: Up to 1300°C
Very low density
Excellent thermal insulation properties
Superior noise reduction and electrical insulation
Cushioning and fire-resistant capabilities
By incorporating thermal break materials like AS17-s into battery designs, manufacturers can significantly improve the safety, performance, and longevity of their products, particularly in high-demand applications such as electric vehicles.
