Abstract:
An inorganic platelet composition for use as thermal and/or electrical insulation and fire protection for electrochemical cells such as lithium ion cells. The inorganic platelet composition may be located on individual battery cells, within the interstitial spaces of adjacent battery cells and/or between modules of battery cells in a larger battery pack. The inorganic platelet composition prevents thermal runaway that may occur in one cell or modules of cells from propagating to adjacent or nearby cells or modules within the battery pack.

Claim (Index 22):
A lithium ion battery pack comprising:\n a housing having an interior surface and an exterior surface; a plurality of individual lithium ion cells within said housing and electrically connected together, each of said lithium ion cells comprising an outer housing, an anode, a cathode, a separator separating said anode from said cathode and an electrolyte, said lithium ion battery pack comprising interstitial spaces between the individual lithium ion cells; and an inorganic platelet composition (i) located or positioned on the exterior surfaces of at least a portion of the individual lithium ion cells positioned within said housing, and/or (ii) within at least a portion of said interstitial spaces between said individual lithium ion cells positioned within said housing of said electrochemical battery pack, and/or (iii) adjacent to or on at least a portion of the internal surfaces of the housing of the lithium ion battery pack, and/or (iv) adjacent to or on at least a portion of the external surfaces of the housing of the lithium ion battery pack.
