Product specifications
In the event of a fire or thermal runaway, Q57 shields the battery enclosure or substrate by resisting high temperatures, impact and abrasion from debris, and protects against blast and pressure waves. Q57 helps to prevent thermal runaway in electric vehicles (among other applications) from progressing, protecting life and critical equipment.
- Protects against temperatures of over 1300 °C
- Capable of being fitted to acute angles, Q57 is ideal for complex geometric shapes
- Lightweight - an important trait for increasing the range and performance of a battery pack
- Low smoke and toxicity during a fire
- Flexible and less than 1 mm thick, Q57 offers advanced protection without intruding into vent space
- Its unique properties mean that, unlike intumescents, Q57 stays the same thickness throughout a fire event.
Tested for use in the toughest conditions
More than battery abuse testing
AIS is uniquely placed in the market. Offering both battery abuse testing and a range of anti-propagation and fire retardant materials for battery applications. Our range of solutions have been pre-qualified through live cell, module and pack testing.
Battery module anti-propagation
Preventing thermal runaway by containing propagation to a single cell within a module.
Fire retardant EV coating
Protect fuel cells from explosion during extreme external events such as battery fires.
