In a few occasions I have seen in the forum comments about materials to be put under or around a battery to prevent fire hazards.
My understanding was that people asking these questions were looking for a material where the heat of the cells would not start a fire on its supporting material or other surrounding materials.
Also, I have seen videos of batteries going wild with fire and fireworks due to a failure and was wondering If there really is a way to protect the battery surroundings with a material layer. The fire should easily reach the 800*C in the flame body and that fall in the range of metals, ceramics or composites (mix of materials).
Anybody has experience with this?
I have been doing some research and believe an aramide layer could help preventing fire spread.
Correction 16-06-22: Now I refer to batteries in general.
