Thermal runaway shield acts as a heat sink during normal lithium-ion battery pack operation but also prevents thermal runaway propagation, which is a serious concern for aerospace and defense customers and electric vehicle manufacturers.
A vaporizing thermal capacitor that provides passive prevention of thermal runaway propagation (TRP) in lithium-ion battery packs.
Thermal runaway can occur spontaneously in a Li-ion cell due to a short.
This can trigger an explosive release of electric energy that ruptures the end cap resulting in a flare and combustion of cell materials.
Released heat drives the triggered cell temperatures to > 500°C, causing a dramatic increase in neighboring cell temperatures. Temperatures above the critical 130°C greatly increase the chance for a short in adjacent cells and result in TRP. This product keeps neighboring cell temperatures from rising above 100°C (well below the 130°C threshold) and prevents TRP.
Effective passive thermal management solutions for battery packs ranging from 10 to 4,000 cells are in demand.
This is especially the case with high-performance applications that draw more power from the battery pack, which can be the case with E-Mobility applications.
The company's US-designed, NASA-tested design is a very light-weight, durable heat sink that keeps lithium ion batteries cooler and safer.
A perfect fit for an automotive industry (electric vehicles) that demands safe and reliable, light-weight battery management solutions.

And as I mentioned previously, KULR has several potential catalysts that could spark vertical movement near term. Here's what to take into account.
No. 1 KULR Potential Catalyst - $7.00 Price Target Provides Over 400% Potential Upside From 2/28's Close
Analyst Theodore R. O’Neill of Litchfield Hills Research reiterated a buy rating and slapped KULR with a $7.00 price target back in November of 2022.
Here are some key highlights from his updated report:
One-cent miss to EPS but record revenue. KULR reported 3Q22 revenue and an EPS loss of $1.4MM and $0.05, respectively. Consensus 3Q22 revenue and EPS loss expectations were $0.9M and $0.04, respectively. The $0.01 EPS variance was due to lower margins and higher non-operating expenses, partially offset by lower operating expenses and higher sales.
Batting well above its weight. The company reported it has over 300 customers in the current quarter, with some of the world’s largest industrial and commercial companies such as Lockheed Martin (LMT-NR), Ball Aerospace, SAFT Group, General Motors (GM-NR), Cirba Solutions, Redwood Materials, Leidos Holdings (LDOS-NR), Meta Platforms (META-NR), Viridi Parente and BOSCH. KULR products protect and solve complex, real-world issues of heat, vibration, and safety.
Well capitalized. The company ended the quarter with $16.2MM of cash.
We are updating our estimates to include the results in the quarter, which increases our 2022 revenue to $3.4MM from $2.7MM. The 2022 EPS loss is unchanged at $0.19. For 2023, our revenue and EPS estimates are unchanged.
Although the shares trade above peer averages, it has held a premium for a considerable time and based on discounted future earnings, we feel the shares are undervalued.

No. 3 KULR Potential Catalyst - Key Patent Awarded On KULR's SafeCase Tech
KULR Technology Group Announces Issuance of U.S. Patent Covering Li-Ion Battery Storage and Transportation Solution
Issuance of United States Patent 11502352 Further Bolsters Company’s Intellectual Property Portfolio
SAN DIEGO, Feb. 07, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- KULR Technology Group, Inc. (NYSE American: KULR) (the "Company" or "KULR"), a leading energy management platform company accelerating the global transition to a sustainable electrification economy, today announced that the United States Patent and Trademark Office awarded a patent on the technology behind its SafeCase products – a U.S. Department of Transportation (“DoT”) permitted lithium-ion battery cell and pack storage and transportation system. The SafeCase products are designed to mitigate thermal runaway propagation and its catastrophic effects for lithium-ion battery packs of up to 2.5 kWh (kilowatt-hours) per case by utilizing KULR’s patented Thermal Runaway Shield (“TRS”) technology.
In 2022, KULR gained immediate and open access to commercial partners and customers by securing United Parcel Service (NYSE: UPS) (“UPS”) shipping certification, which allows for shipment of batteries utilizing the KULR SafeCase products through UPS’ vast shipping network.
This is the fourth patent issued to KULR based on its TRS design architecture. As a result of its TRS solution, the Company more recently secured a trio of DoT granted special permits enabling it to strategically pursue regulatory markets ranging from shipping prototype batteries to end of life battery management, as well as those used by NASA to transport and store batteries aboard the International Space Station.
“We bring decades of experience solving today's problems within thermal management,” stated Dr. Will Walker, Chief Technology Officer of KULR Technology Group, Inc. “Previously, the Consumer Product Safety Commission reported KULR’s design solutions could stop fires and explosions in lithium-ion battery packs, and provided additional insights on the future of safe battery technology. We continue to work with government agencies, regulators, and commercial customers across the world incorporating our holistic methodology for designing safe battery systems.”
The lithium-ion battery market size is expected to grow at a CAGR of 13.1% from USD 44.5Bn in 2022 to USD 135.1Bn by 2031.
