AI Customer ServiceLithium-ion batteries pose fire risks due to overcharging, extreme temperatures, and manufacturing defects. To avoid fires, follow manufacturer guidelines, inspect batteries regularly, and consider alternative
AI Customer ServiceWhy do lithium-ion batteries catch fire? Lithium-ion battery cells combine a flammable electrolyte with significant stored energy, and if a lithium-ion battery cell creates more heat than it can effectively disperse, it can lead to a rapid uncontrolled release of heat energy, known as ‘thermal runaway’, that can result in a fire or explosion.
When a lithium-ion battery fire breaks out, the damage can be extensive. These fires are not only intense, they are also long-lasting and potentially toxic. What causes these fires? Most electric vehicles humming along Australian roads are packed with lithium-ion batteries.
In contrast, when the battery is charged rapidly, the lithium ions have a tendency to deposit on the surface of the graphite particles in the form of lithium metal. “What happens after fast charging when the battery is at rest is a little mysterious,” Balsara said.
Call Emergency Services: Phone the fire department immediately. Having realized that even after the first fire appears to be out, there may be other dangerous elements remaining there. So, a person should not rush to grab items. Do Not Reuse the Battery: A battery that has caught fire should then be disposed of properly.
Water also conducts electricity, which means spraying it on a battery fire could lead to electrical shocks or short-circuits if the battery is not electrically isolated. Globally, numerous solutions have been proposed for extinguishing lithium-ion battery fires.
Researchers have long known that high electric currents can lead to "thermal runaway" – a chain reaction that can cause a battery to overheat, catch fire, and explode. But without a reliable method to measure currents inside a resting battery, it has not been clear why some batteries go into thermal runaway, even when an EV is parked.
