FLEXIBLE MULTILAYER MATERIAL RESISTANT TO THE EXPLOSION OF AN ELECTRIC BATTERY

A multilayer material includes n base units with n being a natural, non-zero integer, a base unit including a laminate having in order: a cross-linked silicone resin layer having expandable graphite particles from a temperature greater than a cross-linking temperature of the resin, and an impregnated silica or alumina fabric or knit layer, the fabric or knit being provided with gaps, all impregnated with a cross-linked silicone resin, having expandable graphite particles from a temperature greater than a cross-linking temperature of the resin. The number n of base units is between 1 and 5 inclusive. The nth base unit being covered with another cross-linked silicone resin layer, also having expandable graphite particles from a temperature greater than a cross-linking temperature of the resin, to form a laminate with an alternating resin layer and a fabric or knit layer.
