The cooperation aims to create aerospace grade thermal insulation materials suitable for power batteries, jointly promote the improvement of thermal safety performance of power batteries, and promote the safe development of the new energy vehicle industry.
The Aerospace Materials Institute was initiated and established by the China Aerospace Science and Industry Corporation Flight Technology Research Institute and the Institute of Aerospace Special Materials and Process Technology, focusing on the development needs of the new generation of aerospace materials. It is committed to building a leading open technology innovation platform and integrated innovation industrialization base for aerospace materials in China. Based on professional technical foundations such as nano insulation material preparation, phase change materials, ceramic materials, etc., it aims to meet the demand for thermal protection products in the fields of aerospace, new energy vehicles, industrial energy conservation, etc., promote the deep integration of the innovation chain industry chain, and lead the technological development of high temperature and high-performance nano insulation temperature control materials.
Ideal Automobile is committed to creating safer, more comfortable, more convenient, and more refined intelligent electric vehicles for families, and has always won market recognition with innovative products and high-quality services.
At the signing ceremony, Liu Zhimin, Vice President of Ideal Automotive Power Battery, Duan Jichao, Senior Director of Materials Technology, Zhang Tianxiang, Secretary of the Party Branch and Vice Chairman of the Aerospace Materials Institute, and leaders of the Industrial Development Department of the Third Academy of Aerospace Science and Industry jointly witnessed this important moment. At the same time, Xu Chao, Senior Director of PACK Development at Ideal Automobile, and Song Jian, Deputy General Manager of Aerospace Materials Institute, participated in the signing ceremony.
According to the agreement, Ideal Automobile and Aerospace Materials Institute will jointly establish an "Advanced Thermal Insulation Materials Joint Laboratory" to fully leverage the technological advantages of both parties, jointly develop high-performance thermal insulation materials, and provide better thermal safety protection solutions for power batteries.
Ideal Automotive's Vice President of Power Batteries, Liu Zhimin, stated at the signing ceremony, "Ideal Automotive attaches great importance to the thermal safety protection of power batteries and has achieved an impressive result of 'zero fire for millions of vehicles'. The cooperation with the China Academy of Aerospace Science and Technology will further enhance the thermal safety protection performance of power batteries
During the signing ceremony, Duan Jichao, Senior Director of Materials Technology at Ideal Automotive, stated, "Ideal Automotive is committed to achieving a dual energy strategy of 'smart+electric energy' through innovative materials and design, providing users with a safer, more comfortable, more convenient, and more refined travel experience. This cooperation will accelerate our exploration in the field of advanced insulation materials and promote the continuous upgrading of thermal safety protection performance of power batteries
Zhang Tianxiang, Secretary of the Party General Branch and Vice Chairman of the Aerospace Materials Institute, said, "The Aerospace Materials Institute is committed to accelerating the breakthrough of key technologies and cutting-edge disruptive technologies. With the joint construction of a laboratory by both parties, the Aerospace Materials Institute will fully leverage its technical expertise and provide excellent insulation and temperature control guarantees for the insulation needs of new energy vehicle power batteries, relying on its deep technical accumulation in the fields of nano insulation materials, phase change materials, and ceramic materials
On the day of the event, both parties also jointly released the industry-leading battery insulation product - "Nano Shield" new material.
This material is specifically designed for the thermal safety protection of ideal automotive power batteries. Through customized development of aerospace grade insulation materials, it achieves even better insulation performance. Compared to ordinary insulation materials, nano shields can reduce the cold surface temperature by 70%; deg; C， Significantly improved the safety margin of the battery system in the event of thermal runaway under extreme working conditions.
In the future, both parties will continue to deepen cooperation in the research and development of fire prevention and insulation products, continuously improve the product strength and user experience of Ideal Automobile, jointly explore the safe, green, and intelligent development path of China's new energy vehicle industry, and create a safer and more comfortable travel life for users.
