Materials for lithium-ion battery safety | Science Advances

Lithium-ion batteries (LIBs) have been widely used in electric vehicles, portable devices, grid energy storage, etc., especially during the past decades because of their high specific energy densities and stable cycling performance (1–8).Since the commercialization of LIBs in 1991 by Sony Inc., the energy density of LIBs has been aggressively increased.

Safety challenges and safety measures of Li-ion batteries

1 INTRODUCTION. Lithium-ion batteries (LIBs) exhibit high energy and power density and, consequently, have become the mainstream choice for electric vehicles (EVs). 1-3 However, the high activity of electrodes and the flammability of the electrolyte pose a significant risk to safety. 4, 5 These safety hazards culminate in thermal runaway, which has severely

Batteries – an opportunity, but what''s the safety risk?
