Lithium-ion battery fires generate intense heat and considerable amounts of gas and smoke. Although the emission of toxic gases can be a larger threat than the heat, the knowledge of such emissions is limited.
In the light of its advantages of low self-discharge rate, long cycling life and high specific energy, lithium-ion battery (LIBs) is currently at the forefront of energy storage carrier [4, 5].
If you happen to inhale battery smoke, seek treatment immediately and carry the battery with you for medical identification of the correct drug and dose. In order to clearly understand the cause of lithium-ion battery fire and possible ways to minimize the risk, they must be familiar with the function of the battery.
Lithium batteries are manufactured to provide high energy density for their intended electronic devices while minimizing their weight or volume. The lightweight characteristics of the lithium-ion battery installed in its design are translated into slender partitions and shells / covers between battery packs and batteries.
Recommendations for future research made to advance knowledge of off-gas. Provides a critical resource for improving Li-ion battery risk assessments. Lithium-ion batteries (LIBs) present fire, explosion and toxicity hazards through the release of flammable and noxious gases during rare thermal runaway (TR) events.
The lightweight characteristics of the lithium-ion battery installed in its design are translated into slender partitions and shells / covers between battery packs and batteries. The partition is fragile and easy to be punctured.
