Laboratory Safety Tests

Unmatched Safety: Solid State Batteries Set the New Standard

Deformation Test

Temperature Test

Nail Penetration Test

1. Deformation Test

The deformation (crush) test applies extreme mechanical force to a fully charged battery cell, compressing or crushing it to simulate impacts from accidents, heavy loads, or structural failures in real-world scenarios.

Traditional lithium-ion batteries often react violently under such deformation, triggering thermal runaway with intense fire, smoke, venting, or explosion due to their flammable liquid electrolyte.

This test highlights why solid-state technology delivers unmatched safety for marine applications—peace of mind, even under the harshest conditions.

2. Temperature Test

The high-temperature abuse test exposes a fully charged battery cell to elevated temperatures, typically 130–200°C or more, simulating fire exposure, hot environments, or internal faults that could trigger failure.

Traditional lithium-ion batteries often react violently under such heat, triggering thermal runaway with intense fire, smoke, venting, or explosion due to their flammable liquid electrolyte.

In contrast, Solid State Marine's solid-state cells—with a non-flammable solid electrolyte—remain stable: no fire, no smoke, minimal reaction, and no thermal runaway even at extreme temperatures

3. Nail Penetration Test

The nail penetration test drives a steel nail through a fully charged battery cell, simulating a severe puncture and internal short circuit that can occur in real-world accidents.

Traditional lithium-ion batteries often react violently, triggering thermal runaway with intense fire, smoke, or explosion due to their flammable liquid electrolyte.

This test highlights why solid-state technology delivers unmatched safety for marine applications—peace of mind, even under the harshest conditions.
