  • Patent number: 12009494
    Abstract: Systems and methods in which a thermal conductive composite comprises a non-uniform heat absorption profile of a thermal reactive material are described. Thermal conductive composites herein may be utilized in thermal regulatory modules with a gradient structure configured to transfer heat energy away from an area near a heat source to an area with a relatively large latent heat absorbing capacity. Thermal conductive material may be provided in a frame structure having lower porosity in a first region more near a heat source and higher porosity in a second region more distant from the heat source. A thermal reactive material may be deposited so as to be disposed within the pores of the thermal conductive material frame structure wherein the density of the thermal reactive material in the first region of the thermal conductive composite is lower than that at the second region of the thermal conductive composite.

  • Patent number: 10608226
    Abstract: The invention provides a coating or film adapted to be arranged between a separator and at least one electrode of a rechargeable battery. The coating or film comprises a porous layer comprising a layer material having at least a first material and a second material, the first and the second materials being arranged to comprise a plurality of pores for passage of ions therethrough; and the second material is adapted to reduce in size upon drying such that porosity of the porous layer is improved or enhanced at a normal operating temperature; wherein, in response to temperature change, the layer material is adapted to undergo a first phase change during which the pores of said porous layer are adapted to substantially close to thereby substantially reduce or prevent further passage of ions.

  • Patent number: 9431643
    Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a separator of a lithium-ion battery and a preparation method thereof, the separator comprises a substrate membrane and a coating provided on a surface of the substrate membrane, the coating comprises ceramic particles, an adhesive and a solid polymer wax which has a melting point of 85˜120° C., a molecular weight of 1,000˜25,000 and a particle size of 0.5˜10 ?m. When the lithium-ion battery is heated due to overcharge and the like to make the interior temperature reach the melting point of the solid polymer wax, the solid polymer wax can be melt and enter among the ceramic particles and into the micropores of the substrate membrane by capillarity so as to function as electrical disconnection, which can effectively cut off the channel of the lithium ions and stop the overcharge, and ensure the safety performance of the lithium-ion battery under the situation of overcharge.
