On the 27th, Nano Team announced that it held a commemorative ceremony marking the first mass shipment of its thermal runaway suppression pad, 'TPSTOP', produced at its Ulsan plant.

TPSTOP will be applied to the first three electric vehicle models from domestic automakers that feature a thermal runaway suppression option. Nano Team will supply this product for more than 10 years in the future.

Recently, the importance of technologies that prevent the spread of heat to adjacent cells during battery fires—a phenomenon known as 'thermal runaway'—has been increasing. This is because safety concerns about electric vehicle fires are affecting consumer sentiment and leading to a so-called 'chasm' phase, where the growth of the electric vehicle market is slowing.

Nano Team collaborated with domestic automakers to develop materials that suppress the spread of thermal runaway, and has applied this technology to actual vehicles.

Choi Yoonseong, CEO of Nano Team, stated, "We will continue to further upgrade the performance of related products and establish ourselves as a leading company specializing in battery safety materials."
