QoolPlate
Polymer direct-contact architecture for battery thermal management.
QoolPlate is the cooling architecture inside every Qoolers BTMS.
Flexible polymer channels sit against the cell — not behind an aluminium plate and a layer of TIM.
One platform, two integrations: cylindrical cells, or prismatic and pouch cells.
Hotspots and ΔT
A metal plate plus TIM leaves gaps and edges the coolant never sees. QoolPlate puts 0.1 mm of polymer between coolant and cell and keeps that contact as the cell moves.
Mass and stack height
Cylindrical BTMS: up to 70 % lighter than a comparable aluminium HEX. Prismatic & pouch BTMS: up to 50 % lighter. The clearance budget starts at 1.3 mm. No pre-forming.
Electrical risk
QoolPlate is electrically non-conductive. You do not add isolation films to keep a metal heat exchanger away from the cell can.
How QoolPlate works
Direct contact.
Adaptive under swell.
No TIM.
QoolPlate is a row of polymer micro-tubes, joined into a segmented manifold with integrated flow paths. Coolant runs inside the polymer. The outer wall is the heat-transfer surface.
High-Si and fast-charge cells swell. A rigid aluminium plate plus TIM loses contact exactly when heat flux peaks. QoolPlate is elastic. As the cell grows, contact pressure and heat-transfer area increase. That is the mechanism behind longer cycle life and usable fast-charge power — not a bigger pump.
Recyclability: Engineering polymers, designed for separation at end of life. Recyclability above 90 % by weight.
One architecture. Two BTMS products.
BTMS for Cylindrical Cells
Permanent contact on the cylinder, including during expansion.
Up to 70 % lighter and up to 22 % higher thermal performance vs. a comparable aluminium HEX.
BTMS for Prismatic & Pouch Cells
Full-face contact through swell and contraction.
Up to 50 % lighter and up to 22 % higher thermal performance vs. a comparable aluminium HEX.
Modules and packs use the same platform. Customisation is the cell format, the manifold layout and the duty cycle — not a new architecture.

In development.
Under development. Hardware status on request.
BTMS Immersion — electronically controlled flow
Dielectric immersion with zoned, electronically controlled flow. Coolant is directed to the cells that are under load, so the system does not have to be oversized for the worst cell in the pack.
Battery Safety System
Active protection against thermal-runaway propagation, designed to work with the pack thermal system and remain independent of pack power.
BTMS Baseplate
Liquid-cooled polymer cold plate for modules, packs and power electronics — lightweight, electrically insulating, structural.
Patents
Protected architecture, not a slide claim. IP filed across EU, USA and China.
Liquid-filled polymer HEX
Thin polymer tubes terminated into a single manifold with two integrated channels. This is the core of QoolPlate for cylindrical cells.
Electronically controlled TM
The pack or module can be treated as independently controlled thermal zones. Applies to tube HEX and to immersion.
Battery safety system
Active intervention against thermal runaway or its propagation, depending on cell chemistry and layout.
Adopt new technology with ease.
