Incidents involving
lithium-ion battery fires
continue to skyrocket.
Burning lithium-ion batteries can pose many risks that separate them from your average emergency, including thermal runaway, flammable, explosive and toxic off-gases, corrosive flammable electrolyte and the possibility of re-igniton. If thermal runaway propagation is not halted properly, lithium-ion batteries have a documented history of re-igniting hours to days post-incident. This is becoming a devastating hazard for business owners and first responders across the world.
