Lithium-ion batteries used in portable electronic devices can undergo thermal runaway — a condition where internal heat generation outpaces dissipation. This can result in:
Why Standard Fire Testing Isn’t Enough
Traditional fire testing methods do not accurately represent lithium-ion battery behavior during failure. Thermal runaway produces unique challenges — including high-velocity gas release and rapid heat buildup — that require specialized containment and evaluation methods to ensure safety and compliance.
