Why do lithium batteries catch fire? Lithium batteries are a type of battery that uses lithium metal or lithium alloy as the positive and negative electrode materials and uses a non-aqueous electrolyte solution. Due to the advantages of long cycle life, green environmental protection, fast charging and discharging speed, large capacity, etc., this battery is widely used in battery cars, power banks, laptops, and even new energy vehicles, drones and other fields, but short circuits, overcharging, rapid discharge, design and manufacturing defects, and mechanical damage will cause spontaneous combustion and even explosion of lithium batteries.
