Breakthrough in Lithium Battery Smoke Suppressants Cuts Fire Toxicity by 90% ——Wanrun’s Solid-Phase Catalytic System Passes UL 268, Global Demand Soars 800% in 2025

2025-07-21

Effective Jan 2025, updated UL 268 mandates:
Smoke obscuration ≤40% within 90s of thermal runaway (vs. 70% old)
Peak CO emission <500ppm (vs. 1000ppm)
Per NFPA, global energy storage installations hit 1.2TWh in 2025 (+48% YoY), requiring 1.8 tons/GWh of suppressants. Market to reach $730M, with China producing 67% of global supply. CATL and BYD’s new lines adopt 3rd-gen tech.

Tech Breakthroughs: Dual Mechanisms Redefine Safety

Material	2025 Price Surge	Key Function	Substitution Progress
Molybdenum	+185%	MoS₂ catalytic core	Wanrun’s FeS₂ doping (92% efficacy)
Cerium	+230%	Rare earth oxygen storage	GEM’s 99.9% purity from scrap
Tin	+76%	Organotin radical trapping	Albemarle bio-tin pilot success

- UL 268 New Test: Added "multi-module cascade failure" scenario (thermal spread >5m/s)
- China’s GB/T 36276-2025: Bio-content grants certification bonus, boosting Wanrun exports 300%
- Patent Barriers: Albemarle holds 78% organotin patents; Wanrun broke limits via Nabaltec acquisition
Future Frontiers: Intelligence & Sustainability
1. AI Early Warning:
  - Huawei’s "SmokeGuard AI" predicts thermal runaway 10s ahead via voltage fluctuations
2. Carbon Monetization:
  - $120/tCO₂e credit for bio-based suppressants drives 30% price premium
3. Military-Civil Fusion:
  - China Electronics Tech transfers naval battery tech to civilian use (>5000h salt spray resistance)
