Abstract: ABSTRACT The present invention relates to a battery module spacer manufactured using a polycarbonate-basalt fibre composite material for use in electric vehicle (EV) battery pack assemblies. Conventional spacers made from polypropylene, nylon, or low-grade plastics often suffer from thermal deformation, insufficient compressive strength, and potential electrical conductivity risks when placed near high-energy battery cells. The proposed invention utilizes a non-conductive polycarbonate matrix reinforced with basalt fibres, providing exceptional thermal stability, high compressive load capacity, and long-term dimensional accuracy. The composite spacer effectively maintains cell-to-cell separation, prevents swelling-induced deformation, and withstands mechanical stresses generated during vehicle operation. Its non-conductive structure enhances electrical safety, while the basalt fibre reinforcement ensures superior resistance to heat, vibration, and mechanical compression. By integrating advanced composite performance with precise geometric design, the invention delivers a durable, thermally stable, and safe battery module spacer suitable for modem EV battery systems.
