Abstract
An apparatus for shipping or storage of Li-ion batteries comprises a sealable outer bag fabricated from heat-resistant, permeable fabric, a first flexible thermal runaway shield (“TRS”) fabricated from low-permeability film configured to line a first inside surface of the outer bag, a second flexible TRS fabricated from low-permeability film configured to line a second inside surface of the outer bag, and at least one Li-ion battery configured to be disposed between the first flexible TRS and the second TRS of the sealable outer bag to provide a sealed outer bag.

An apparatus for shipping or storage of Li-ion batteries comprising:
- a sealable outer bag fabricated from heat-resistant, permeable fabric;
- a first flexible thermal runaway shield (“TRS”) fabricated from low-permeability film configured to line a first inside surface of the outer bag;
- a second flexible TRS fabricated from low-permeability film configured to line a second inside surface of the outer bag;
- and
- at least one Li-ion battery configured to be disposed between the first flexible TRS and the second TRS of the sealable outer bag to provide a sealed outer bag.
An apparatus for shipping or storage of Li-ion batteries comprising:
- a sealable flexible thermal runaway shield (“TRS”) bag fabricated from low-permeability film configured to store at least one Li-ion battery;
- and
- a sealable outer bag fabricated from heat-resistant, permeable fabric configured to store the sealable flexible TRS bag.
An apparatus for shipping or storage of Li-ion batteries comprising:
- a sealable outer bag fabricated from heat-resistant, permeable fabric;
- a first flexible thermal runaway shield (“TRS”) fabricated from low-permeability film configured to line a first inside surface of the outer bag;
- a second flexible TRS fabricated from low-permeability film configured to line a second inside surface of the outer bag;
- a rigid divider configured to separate an interior of the sealable outer bag into a first compartment and a second compartment;
- a first sealable flexible TRS bag fabricated from low-permeability film configured to enclose at least one Li-ion battery within a first compartment of the sealable outer bag;
- and
- a second sealable flexible TRS bag fabricated from low-permeability film configured to enclose at least one other Li-ion battery within a second compartment of the sealable outer bag.
