A few days ago, the British Trelleborg Company introduced the new FRV material developed by the company for electric vehicle (EV) battery protection and certain high fire risk application scenarios at the International Composites Summit (ICS) held in London, and emphasized its uniqueness. The flame retardant properties.

新型FRV材料-1

FRV is a unique lightweight fireproof material with an areal density of only 1.2 kg/m2. The data shows that FRV materials can be flame-retardant at +1100°C for 1.5 hours without burning through. As a thin and soft material, FRV can be covered, wrapped or shaped into any shape to suit the needs of different contours or regions. This material has a small size expansion during a fire, making it an ideal material choice for applications with high fire risks.

FRV is an engineered composite material composed of carbon fiber and proprietary resin, with outstanding performance. FRV materials can be used directly, without additional curing or resin infusion process, and no pressure treatment.
       Kerry Lyons, Trelleborg’s global business manager, said: “FRV is an ultra-light flexible material that can cover and wrap areas and contours of any shape and size. It can be used simultaneously with the company’s previously developed FR1500 composite sheet, which can be used for EV battery boxes and The shell provides a lightweight protection scheme and can also be used alone as a new type of fireproof material.”

The possible applications of FRV materials are as follows:
  • EV battery box and shell
  • Flame retardant materials for lithium batteries
  • Aerospace and automotive fire protection panels
  • Engine protection cover
  • Electronic equipment packaging
  • Marine facilities and ship decks, door panels, floors
  • Other fire protection applications

FRV materials are easy to transport and install, and no continuous maintenance is required after on-site installation. At the same time, it is suitable for new and reconstructed fire protection facilities.
