KULR Technology Group Partners with Airbus to Provide Battery Safety Solutions
06 Oktober 2020 - 2:30PM
KULR Technology Group, Inc. (OTCQB: KULR), (the “Company” or
“KULR”) today announces it is partnering with Airbus Defense and
Space to provide KULR’s passive propagation resistant (PPR) battery
design solutions for ongoing research into lithium-ion battery
testing and safety for flight applications. The electrical
engineers at Airbus (OTC: EADSY) (Euronext: AIR) do research and
develop safe battery solutions for defense, space, helicopter, and
aircraft applications.
KULR’s PPR design combines HYDRA Thermal Runaway Shield (TRS),
LYRA internal short circuit, and NASA’s Fractional Thermal Runaway
Calorimeter cell analysis technologies to provide an integrated
total solution for battery testing and safety. HYDRA TRS is a
sleeve-like shield that surrounds and separates individual cells in
multi-cell packs and contains carbon fiber core and liquid coolant.
The unique combination and configuration of the shield passively
draws intense heat of cell failures away from nearby cells while
dousing the failed area in a cooling and fire-prevention
liquid.
Though weight and volume of thermal management solutions are the
most critical constraints in flight applications, KULR’ carbon
fiber architecture offers superior mass and weight advantages.
“We are excited to work with Airbus to refine and enhance its
battery safety research, an agreement that further demonstrates our
commitment to battery safety in consumer and commercial
applications,” said Michael Mo, CEO of KULR. “We believe our TRS
technology can provide a lightweight and effective solution to
mitigate thermal runaway propagation risk for Airbus’
high-performance batteries.”
KULR’s HYDRA TRS is proven by various government testing
authorities to stop or mitigate the impacts of dangerous
lithium-ion battery failures known as thermal runaway propagation.
Last year, Leidos (LDOS) and NASA used KULR’s HYDRA TRS technology
to safely ship to and store batteries aboard the International
Space Station. In addition, NASA’s Marshall Space Flight Center
(MSFC) recently awarded KULR a dual-use technology development
agreement to build 3D printed battery systems for manned and
robotic space applications.
