AI Customer ServiceLithium-ion batteries are the main type of rechargeable battery used and stored in commercial premises and residential buildings. The risks associated with these batteries can lead to a fire and/or an explosion with little or no warning.
Some potential consequences of a lithium-ion battery fire or explosion include: Fire and smoke: The flammable electrolyte inside a lithium-ion battery can ignite, causing a difficult fire to extinguish with water. Toxic fumes: Burning lithium-ion batteries can release poisonous gases, such as hydrogen fluoride, which can be harmful if inhaled.
While there are standards for the overall performance and safety of Lithium-ion batteries, there are as yet no UK standards specifically for their fire safety performance. IEC 62133 sets out requirements and tests for the safety and performance of Lithium-ion batteries in portable electronic devices, including cell phones, laptops and tablets.
Toxic fumes: Burning lithium-ion batteries can release poisonous gases, such as hydrogen fluoride, which can be harmful if inhaled. Explosion: In some cases, the pressure buildup inside a lithium-ion battery can cause it to explode, potentially causing injury or property damage.
Due to the self-sustaining process of thermal runaway, Lithium-ion battery fires are also difficult to quell. Bigger batteries such as those used in electric vehicles may reignite hours or even days after the event, even after being cooled. Source: Firechief® Global
Damage to lithium batteries can occur immediately or over a period of time, from physical impact, exposure to certain temperatures, and/or improper charging. Physical impacts that can damage lithium batteries include dropping, crushing, and puncturing.
