It’s safer to put diamonds in lithium batteries
Lithium batteries are widely used in mobile devices such as mobile phones and laptops. Dangerous events such as ignition of mobile devices due to battery short circuit are also increasing. Scientists from China and the United States have jointly completed a new study. They have added nano-sized diamond particles to the electrolyte of lithium batteries to prevent the formation of deposits inside the batteries that lead to short circuits and avoid fire accidents caused by battery short circuits. Lithium battery has high energy density and good discharge performance, and is widely used in industry and consumer electronics. However, if pure…
