Fire Cloak EV Car Fire Blanket

This can easily happen if the high energy propulsion battery is damaged, or a manufacturing fault causes it to go into “Thermal Runaway”. Just a single rogue cell, short circuiting, can generate temperatures over 1,000°C which starts a fire and in turn creates a “domino effect” spreading it from cell to cell, in a short space of time an intense fire is established.

Lithium battery Thermal Runaway fires cannot be extinguished by conventional means. The battery electrolyte usually contains flammable hydrocarbons and Lithium is highly reactive and self-oxidising, so the fire feeds itself. If left unchecked extremely high temperatures and raging infernos can result. By deploying a Fire Cloak EV Car Fire Blanket, the combustion potential can be minimised by depriving the fire of oxygen. And because the fire is contained, temperatures drop rapidly which helps prevent damage to surrounding vehicles and property.

Manufactured from a specialised quartz material and coated with a fire-resistant polymer, the resulting high-tech fabric has extremely high temperature resistance. This has recently been proven with the FIRE CLOAK attaining a Class 0 rating, the highest British Standard for material fire resistance.
