Electric vehicles (EVs), which are on the rise, will lead to a sustainable future in transportation. The rapid growth of the EV industry has created a cloud over its progress, namely battery safety concerns. Battery fires are a frequent occurrence, which has not only undermined consumer confidence, but also posed a significant challenge to the wide adoption of EVs. Fuqiang has made significant advancements in flame-retardant and fire-resistant technologies to address these issues.
Ceramic materials are a great option for fire resistance due to their unique properties. Fuqiang is a leader in the field and offers innovative products like FQ Solid Ceramic Silicon Foam and FQ Ceramic Silicon Foam that provide robust support for electric vehicle safety.
FQ Solid Ceramic Silicon Rubber: This product is able to withstand flames of up to 1000degC, without bursting or causing any damage. It quickly forms a ceramic support in environments above 600degC. This effectively isolates the fire source, preventing it from spreading. High strength, chemical corrosion resistance and wear resistance make it a great choice for electrical components.
FQ ceramic silicon foam: This material, which is renowned for its superior thermal insulation, soft conforming properties and effectiveness in insulation layers and heat isolation layer, is especially effective when used as a battery pack insulation or heat isolation layer. It prevents heat loss, keeps the temperature stable between cells and prevents thermal runaway. It also remains intact up to temperatures of 800degC in flames and forms a ceramic backing at temperatures higher than 500degC. This provides an additional safety barrier for battery pack.
Electric Vehicles
In the EV industry, fire-resistant technologies are becoming more common. The following are some of the key application scenarios for FQ Solid Ceramic Silicon Rubber and FQ Ceramic Foam:
Battery pack safety protection: These products are critical in preventing fires from erupting due to thermal runaway. They protect the core power of EVs.
Thermal Insulation between Cells: Filling the cells with FQ Ceramic Silicon Foam absorbs vibration and collision energy, but also stabilises temperature. This prevents thermal runaway.
Electrical component protection: Encasing electronic components in FQ Solid Ceramic Silicon rubber provides a protective layer that effectively isolates heat sources and fire sources, ensuring safe operations.
Charging infrastructure protection: Using ceramic materials to make charging guns and stations increases their thermal insulation properties and flame retardant properties. This ensures a safe charging procedure.
Looking ahead
Fire-resistant and flame retardant technologies will become increasingly important as the EV industry evolves and technology improves. We expect that more companies producing high-performance materials will create superior and widely applicable new material, which will contribute to the safe development EVs. We urge the industry to improve collaboration and communication in order to move the EV sector to a more reliable, safer and sustainable future.
The automotive industry can make the transition from combustion to electric vehicles not only safe but also green by leveraging innovative technologies that are fire resistant and adopting innovation.
