The safety of battery-powered cars has raised social concerns. It is not unusual for battery cars to catch fire, and some have even been known to cause great harm. Why do batteries catch fire so often? The negative electrode of a Lithium battery is used as the negative electrode for a Lithium-ion Battery. It is matched to the cathode in the battery. The anode materials in lithium-ion batteries act as the host, and they reversibly allow lithium ions to intercalate/deintercalation during charge/discharge cycles. These are the main causes: Charge time is too lengthy
80% electric vehicle fires are caused by charging during the night. During charging, the likelihood of spontaneous combustion, short-circuit and explosion is high if the battery is old and the wiring is peeling off. This can ignite an electric vehicle parked nearby. People are sleeping during this time and it is difficult to escape.
2. Parking to support combustion
Statistically, 90% cases of electric vehicles causing fatalities happened in areas such as hallways, aisles and staircases. It is easy for combustibles to accumulate in corridors and staircases due to the airtight conditions. This can also cause fire evacuation routes and passages to be blocked.
3. Modifications that are made by hand
Many electric car drivers increase the battery capacity and driving speed arbitrarily, creating safety hazards. The “Electric Vehicle Safety Technical Code”, a new national code, states clearly that “the battery nominal voltage must be lower than or equal 48V”. Some illegal electric vehicles sales and maintenance outlets cater to demand by illegally installing 60V and even 70V over-standard battery voltage for city residents.
4. The primary material used in electric vehicles is flammable
In terms of safety, electric vehicles can be sources of ignition. Fuel and flammable substances are present on the body. Once in contact with combustion-supporting materials or in a confined space, it is very easy to cause deflagration events.

Battery Type
Four types of power batteries can be used in electric bikes: nickel-metal-hydride batteries, valve-regulated, maintenance-free lead-acid, and lithium-ion. Comparing lithium-ion to lead-acid, they have several advantages. These include lighter weight, higher voltages, greater temperature compatibility, and better environmental protection. There are hidden dangers with lithium-ion battery safety, but they’re not as obvious as you might think. There are sometimes fires. At the same, lithium-ion cells cannot be discharged using high current. Comparing lead-acid and lithium-ion batteries, the overall safety and speed performance is compared. Lithium-ion batteries are more expensive and have a larger gap in price. The new national standard may lead to lithium-ion being the most popular choice of battery for electric vehicles in the future.

Material for Lithium Ion Battery Anodes
The cathode in a battery made of lithium-ion is the negative electrode from the lithium-ion material. The anode materials in lithium-ion batteries act as the host, and they reversibly allow lithium ions to intercalate/deintercalation during charge/discharge cycles.

Application of the lithium battery negative electrolyte
The lithium battery anode material is used to store energy and release it from the battery. It is also an essential part of the battery. This is due to the compatibility of the graphite and the electrolyte. Trunano Technology Co. Ltd. supplies high-purity lithium battery materials such as graphite, graphene graphene graphite powder, SiO, SiC, Si-C and silicon powder.
