MUMBAI, India, Jan. 2 -- Intellectual Property India has published a patent application (202541124366 A) filed by Dhanalakshmi Srinivasan College Of Engineering, Coimbatore, Tamil Nadu, on Dec. 9, 2025, for 'intelligent thermal safety shield for battery packs.'

Inventor(s) include Mr. K. Premnath; Sivapoorani M; Shamily S; R. Srinithi; N. Shanmugapriya; S. Sindhuja; Rishwanth M; Sadhurthiya. A; and P. Srimathi.

The application for the patent was published on Jan. 2, under issue no. 01/2026.

According to the abstract released by the Intellectual Property India: "This invention presents an Intelligent Thermal Safety Shield that is aimed at reducing battery thermal runaway by using a multi-layered protective design, distributed sensing, as well as AI-enhanced predictive control. The shield is made up of a heat spreader of graphene, nano-enhanced phase change material (PCM) thermal buffer, an aerogel insulator, and a fire-resistant casing. An integrated sensor array is used to do real-time temperature monitoring, gas emissions monitoring, and internal pressure monitoring. A built-in AI processor predicts trendy runaways and activates active protective system controls, such as the release of coolant, electrical isolation, and emergency vent. Remote monitoring and advanced thermal analytics is made possible with Internet of Things (IoT) based connectivity. The invention provides a powerful, flexible and intelligent safety system, which can be applied in electric vehicles, drones, and stationary energy storage devices."
