Electric Commercial Vehicles

Time is money, and commercial vehicles cannot afford downtime. When designing electric commercial vehicle battery packs, engineers trust PyroThin® cell barriers to protect passengers and payload around the clock.

PyroThin cell barriers deliver peace of mind for your fleet

  • Battery heavy duty truck icon

    Heavy Duty Trucks

    Our robust PyroThin portfolio enables engineers to maximize pack safety while optimizing battery capacity and payload for electric trucks.

  • Battery Electric Bus Icon

    Battery Electric Buses

    Tight operating schedules demand fast charging capabilities, requiring a cell barrier that can support battery health throughout the pack’s lifecycle.

  • Last Mile Delivery Van icon

    Last-mile Delivery Vehicles

    Stop-and-go urban traffic puts a lot of mechanical stress on a pack. Choose a cell barrier that can help minimize downtime and ensure a long service life.

  • Battery Electric Construction Equipment Icon

    Construction & Mining

    PyroThin aerogel barriers are engineered to withstand extreme temperatures, providing superior thermal protection in rugged environments.

  • Battery-powered Train icon

    Battery-electric Trains

    A resilient cell barrier is essential to ensure safety without adding unnecessary weight or compromising passenger and cargo volume.

  • EVOTL Electric Aircraft Icon

    EVTOL Electric Aircraft

    PyroThin cell barriers can stop thermal runaway propagation at a cell-to-cell level in an ultralight format that won’t weigh the aircraft down.

Protection for the long haul

Choose a cell-to-cell barrier that works as hard as your fleet. PyroThin cell barriers evolved from our Aerogel Technology Platform® and designed to thrive in the harshest environments, from the ocean floor to outer space.

Simplifies battery pack design

The mechanical performance of PyroThin cell pads does not depend on foam and can perform as a compression pad and thermal barrier.

Delivers uniform protection for maximum reliability

PyroThin cell barrier’s homogenous aerogel structure ensures uniform thermal protection and superior vibration resistance, delivering reliable performance under mechanical and thermal stress.

Optimizes vehicle efficiency

PyroThin aerogel cell barriers are ultra-lightweight, enabling engineers to design a vehicle that can carry more payload and consume less power.

 

 

 

PyroThin aerogel cell barriers between prismatic and pouch modules in various sizes and chemistries

There is no one-size-fits-all solution to thermal runaway. Contact our technical team to discuss your program requirements.

Unmatched thermal runaway protection
No matter the cell format or chemistry, PyroThin aerogel barriers provides thermal propagation protection to achieve your safety requirements.
  • Performs under pressure
    PyroThin’s thermal conductivity is lower than still air, so its thermal performance improves as it is compressed over the pack’s lifetime
  • Stops or mitigates thermal propagation
    Enabling engineers to meet or exceed GB38031 and ECE/TRANS/180/Add.20 standards
  • Withstands extreme temperatures
    Unrivaled thermal performance, from cryogenic temperatures to over 1000°C, ensuring a resilient pack.
