Aspects of the present disclosure involve various battery packs. In general, the battery pack includes a plurality of layers and an enclosure enclosing the plurality of layers. A cathode terminal and an anode terminal extend from a first face of the enclosure. The cathode terminal and the anode terminal are connected to the plurality of layers. A Parylene coating may cover an entire surface of the enclosure except for at least a portion of a surface of the first face.

A multi-layer protection element for thermal insulation of a battery, a battery with such a protection element and the use of the protection element to filter gases escaping in case of fire and to prevent the escape of flames and/or sparks are proposed. The highly gas-permeable protection element comprises a carrier layer of a fabric and a compressible fibre layer in the form of a sewn non-woven fabric. The protection element is arranged between at least one battery cell and a housing wall of the battery and covers an outlet of the housing wall on the inside. This enables good pressure compensation in the event of fire and/or a short circuit, wherein escaping gases are filtered in particular through the fibre layer and the escape of flames or sparks through the outlet is prevented.
