Will lithium batteries explode?
Lithium batteries may explode. There are many reasons for the explosion, which can be roughly classified into three types: external short circuit, internal short circuit, and overcharge. Under normal circumstances, the two poles of lithium batteries themselves will never touch, so battery manufacturers will place a separator between the two poles.
Good-quality separator paper, when the internal temperature of the battery is high, will close the pores, terminate the electrochemical reaction, cause the current to drop suddenly, and the temperature will also drop slowly, thereby avoiding an explosion. However, if the diaphragm is broken under the influence of various factors, all the energy in the battery will flow into the electrolyte, and the electrolyte itself is an unstable chemical substance. After receiving too much energy, it will generate a lot of heat. Even catch fire and explode.
