Why are lithium batteries prone to explosion?
1 Answers
The reasons for lithium battery explosions are as follows: 1. Long-term overcharging of the battery cell: Under prolonged charging conditions, overcharging and excessive current can also lead to high temperature and high pressure, creating potential hazards. Lithium batteries may discharge instantaneously under special temperature, humidity, or poor contact conditions, generating a large current and causing spontaneous combustion or explosion. 2. Battery short circuit: When a phone is in a high-temperature state or subjected to impacts, metal friction, etc., it may cause a battery short circuit, leading to an explosion. 3. Charging-induced battery explosion: Playing with the phone while charging prolongs the charging time. Extended charging can cause the phone's temperature to rise, making it more prone to explosion.
