Is There a High Probability of Lithium Battery Explosion?
Along lithium battery in the widespread application of electronic products, concerns about the explosion risk of lithium batteries are also increasing day by day. This article will discuss the possibility and causes of lithium battery explosion, and provide some safety precautions to help readers understand the safety problems of lithium battery more comprehensively.
I. Explosion risk of lithium batteries
-
due to its high energy density and chemical characteristics, lithium batteries may cause explosion and fire once short circuit, overcharge, overdischarge, external impact, etc.
-
The main causes of lithium battery explosion include internal short circuit, electrolyte leakage, electrode material damage, etc., which may lead to thermal runaway and combustion inside the battery.
II. Actual situation of lithium battery explosion
-
although the lithium battery explosion event attracts more attention in the media, in fact, the probability of the explosion event is not high, especially in the case of normal use and maintenance.
-
Most lithium battery explosion events are caused by unqualified products, incorrect use, failure of charging equipment and other reasons. The explosion risk of high-quality lithium batteries produced by regular manufacturers is relatively low.
III. Lithium battery safety precautions
-
buy regular Channel products: choose famous brands and regular channels to buy lithium battery products, avoid buying inferior products and reduce the risk of explosion.
-
Correct use: Do not over charge and discharge, avoid long-term high temperature environment, avoid impact and damage, correctly understand and correctly use lithium batteries.
-
Abnormal observation: If abnormal situations such as leakage, heating and deformation of lithium batteries are found, they should be stopped immediately and handled safely.
-
Regular inspection: Regularly check whether the surface of the lithium battery is damaged, observe whether there is any abnormal phenomenon, and ensure the normal state of the battery.
-
in case of lithium battery explosion, stay away from the explosion site immediately to avoid hot gas and flame burns, and protect eyes and skin at the same time.
-
Use a fire extinguisher to put out the fire, and try to avoid using water to put out the fire, so as to avoid secondary explosion caused by the reaction between lithium metal in the battery and water.
-
If the explosion cannot be controlled, the police should immediately ask professionals for help to handle it to ensure safety.
Lithium battery, as one of the important energy sources of modern electronic products, although there are certain explosion risks, it can effectively reduce the explosion risks and ensure the safety of use through correct use, regular inspection and safety prevention measures. I hope this article can provide readers with some references and guidance on the safety of lithium batteries, so that everyone can use electronic products more safely.
