UL 2596 specifies test methods for evaluating the thermal and mechanical performance of battery enclosure materials used in electric vehicles (EVs), in order to assess their resistance to lithium-ion battery thermal runaway. The test scope reflects typical thermal and mechanical impacts from a thermal runaway event, such as high temperature, high pressure, ejected materials, and mechanical impact.

Aerogel - Materials of the century

Aerogel is a synthetic porous ultralight material derived from a gel, in which the liquid component for the gel has been replaced with a gas. The result is a solid with extremely low density and low thermal conductivity. Nicknames include frozen smoke, solid smoke, solid air, solid cloud, blue smoke owing to its translucent nature and the way light scatters in the material. It feels like fragile expanded polystyrene to the touch. Aerogels can be made from a variety of chemical compounds.
