Are lithium-ion batteries safe?

It’s important to be aware of the other safety hazards either directly linked to or potentially associated with the use, storage and / or handling of lithium-ion batteries: Electrical hazards / safety - high voltage cabling and components capable of delivering a potentially fatal electric shock.

What should I wear to work with lithium-ion batteries?

Gloves, eye protection, protective footwear etc. likely to be appropriate for any activities involving the movement of equipment, vehicles or plant containing lithium-ion batteries. Documented, clear and appropriately communicated safe systems of work where work with, on and / or handling and storage of lithium-ion batteries is required.

What policies should be in place for lithium-ion batteries?

Clear policies and rules should be in place specific to provision, storage, use and charging of equipment containing lithium-ion batteries, these being formally communicated at induction, through regular toolbox talks and on signing-in where visitors and contractors are concerned.

Do internal protection schemes solve battery safety problems?

Internal protection schemes focus on intrinsically safe materials for battery components and are thus considered to be the “ultimate” solution for battery safety. In this Review, we will provide an overview of the origin of LIB safety issues and summarize recent key progress on materials design to intrinsically solve the battery safety problems.
