Abstract: A battery cell includes an electrode assembly, a pair of electrode leads electrically connected to the electrode assembly, a battery case configured to accommodate the pair of electrode leads such that the pair of electrode leads protrude at least partially in a front and rear direction of the battery cell, the battery case having an accommodation space formed to accommodate the electrode assembly, and a taping unit configured to integrally cover both side surfaces and upper and lower surfaces of the battery case.

Abstract: Discussed is a battery module including a plurality of pouch-type secondary batteries arranged in parallel to each other, each pouch type secondary battery comprising an electrode assembly, a receiving portion configured to receive the electrode assembly and a pouch exterior, a cooling plate arranged under the plurality of pouch-type secondary batteries to accommodate the plurality of pouch-type secondary batteries, and a thermally conductive adhesive between the plurality of pouch-type secondary batteries and the cooling plate. The cooling plate includes a first recess to receive a portion of the pouch exterior and a second recess to receive a portion of the thermally conductive adhesive.

Abstract: A composite material for fire protection comprises: a) an inorganic fibre core comprising inorganic fibres interlocked or entangled to form a coherent body resistant against separation laminated between b) at least two layers of phyllosilicate insulation the material further comprising a barrier integral to the material to hinder ingress of humidity to edges of the inorganic fibre core.
