Abstract
Provided is a battery housing made of a fiber-reinforced resin, containing at least an inorganic fiber having a melting temperature of higher than 1000° C. as the fiber. It is possible to provide a battery housing made of a fiber-reinforced resin capable of delaying the spread of fire to an automobile interior member when thermal runaway of a battery occurs and flame is generated, and having excellent flame shielding performance.
Claims12
A battery housing made of a fiber-reinforced resin, comprising, as the fiber, a highly heat-resistant fiber A having a melting temperature or a burn-out temperature of higher than 1000° C. in an air atmosphere, and an inorganic fiber B having a melting temperature or a burn-out temperature lower than that of the highly heat-resistant fiber A, wherein a mass ratio of the inorganic fiber B to the highly heat-resistant fiber A (B/A) is in a range of more than 1 to 8.
