Thermal insulation materials for batteries are generally described. The thermal insulation materials described herein have a number of advantages. For example, in some embodiments, the thermal insulation materials have desirable thermal properties, such as low thermal conductivity and/or high thermal stability. As another example, in some embodiments, the thermal insulation materials described herein have desirable structural properties, such as having a relatively low thickness, and/or beneficial mechanical properties. The thermal insulation materials described herein may also have a combination of desirable thermal and structural properties.

An intumescent mesh comprises a mesh structure woven from strands that define openings in the mesh structure, the strands being made from non-metal materials. An intumescent material is applied to the strands, the intumescent material being carried such that, in an inactivated state the intumescent material permits airflow through the openings in the mesh structure, and in an activated state, the intumescent material swells and restricts airflow through the openings in the mesh structure. The intumescent mesh is able to withstand a temperature of at least 980° C. for at least 10 minutes prior to failure.

The present disclosure discloses a phase-change flame-retardant fiber material for thermal management of a lithium ion battery in a closed space and a preparation method. The phase-change flame-retardant fiber material is prepared in a coaxial electrostatic spinning manner and includes a composite phase-change fiber material PASA-TPU at a core part and a flame-retardant fiber material TB-PAN wrapping a surface of the core part. The composite phase-change fiber material is well wrapped with the flame-retardant fiber material, and the lithium ion battery wrapping the whole phase-change flame-retardant fiber material in the closed space is subjected to charge-discharge cycle; the result shows that the surface temperature of the battery can be effectively reduced by about 20° C. by the material, and the material can effectively play a role in multiple cycle processes; the whole material has an excellent and stable heat absorption effect, and has no leakage and collapse; and the phase-change flame-retardant fiber material only has thermal shrinkage and blackening phenomena and is not combusted after being ignited by open fire for over 20 s. Therefore, the phase-change flame-retardant fiber material of the present disclosure has a relatively good flame-retardant effect compared with other phase-change materials.

Provided are amorphous polyolefin compositions that can be dispensed digitally as the core in a core-sheath construction. These formulations provide dependable adhesion to both polar and non-polar surface in addition to providing a high barrier to air and moisture which is beneficial in many applications. These formulations and the method of processing these formulations provide many benefits, including low VOCs, avoiding die cutting, design flexibility, achieving intricate nonplanar bonding patterns, printing on thin and/or delicate substrates, and printing on an irregular and/or complex topography, no need for release liners or low-adhesion backsize, and no need for a post-processing step.

A non-woven fiber mat for lead-acid batteries is provided. The non-woven fiber mat includes glass fibers coated with a sizing composition, a binder composition, and organic active compounds, wherein the organic active compounds are effective in reducing or preventing sulphation in lead-acid batteries.
