SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR MAINTAINING THERMAL CONTROL OF BATTERY CELLS

A system includes a cell support having a first opening defined therethrough. The first opening is configured to have a first battery cell positioned at least partially therein. The system also includes a first insulator positioned at least partially within the first opening and at least partially around the first battery cell. The first insulator comprises a first solid diamond-like carbon insert that fills a first gap between the first battery cell and the first opening.
