Abstract:
A system includes a battery cell and a graphene layer positioned on an outer surface of the battery cell. If the battery cell experiences a thermal runaway event, the graphene layer may help to direct any rupturing of the battery cell in a direction that may prevent the thermal runaway event from propagating to neighboring battery cells.
