Will a Phone Left in the Car for Several Hours Explode in Summer?
1 Answers
A phone left in the car during summer may explode. If exposed to direct sunlight and high temperatures, prolonged exposure can lead to an explosion. Phones contain batteries, and extended exposure to sunlight can cause explosions. Even if it doesn't explode, it can severely damage the battery. To prevent this, place the phone in a shaded area away from direct sunlight. If the phone overheats, you can cool it quickly by placing it near the air conditioning vent to avoid battery damage. Here are some items you should avoid leaving in the car during summer: 1. Lighters: Small and easily forgotten, they are highly dangerous as they contain liquid butane, which can explode due to increased internal pressure when exposed to heat. 2. Bottled water: When stored in a sun-exposed car for a certain period, it can release harmful substances. Drinking such water not only fails to quench thirst but can also harm health and cause discomfort. 3. Eyeglasses: Especially reading glasses with convex lenses, as they can focus sunlight and potentially cause a fire. 4. Perfume (in glass bottles): Perfume emits flammable gases when it evaporates, with a critical packaging point of 49°C. Tests show that in an unshaded car at noon in summer, the temperature can reach 65°C within 15 minutes of sunlight exposure, which may trigger an explosion.
