With the rapid growth of high energy-density battery electric vehicles, safety from thermal runaway events remains a concern.

In this webinar, Dow’s Jake Steinbrecher and Craig Gorin highlights novel flame-retardant and ceramifiable silicone-based solutions for thermal runaway propagation prevention and hazard mitigation.

Key topics and takeaways:

• Identification and technical evaluation of hazards from battery thermal runaway events
• An understanding of current silicone materials, fabrication options, and applications
• Methods to mitigate thermal runaway hazards in battery pack designs
• Exposure to new testing methods that validate mitigation or protection solutions
