Why do they explode

For a battery to explode, a chemical reaction and short circuit must occur in it. The process of gas formation starts. They have nowhere to go, so they act on the walls of the element, which leads to a sharp clap and tear. Before this, it is noticeable how the battery begins to inflate in whole or in separate areas.

The main reasons why batteries and batteries explode:

  1. Poor production, marriage. Disposable cheap goods, by definition, have an unreliable housing.
  2. Overheating (the object was lying in the sun or near the heating system).
  3. Excessive charge.
  4. Recharging disposable batteries in the device - they are not intended for this.
  5. Physical impact - bounce, squeeze, etc.
  6. Water entering the battery.
  7. Incorrect use (polarity reversal).
  8. The increased load of the appliance.
  9. Power surge during charging.

Large batteries

As you can see, there are a lot of reasons for the explosion, and not all of them can be prevented. Explosions are susceptible to any variety: telephone batteries, standard finger batteries, and even the smallest elements. In order for the tablet to explode, it is enough to store it for some time next to metal objects.

How to avoid unpleasant situations

Explosion of the battery is dangerous damage to devices and surrounding objects. The most unpleasant consequences are the flooding of the entire battery compartment and the failure of the consumer device. Explosion is dangerous and chemical burns to the skin.

Tip
Remove batteries from devices that are not currently in use.

purity.bigbadmole.com/en/ magazine recommends taking your used batteries to a designated collection point. Moreover, elements with signs of gas accumulation inside.

What to do to minimize the risk of explosion:

  1. Do not throw rechargeable batteries and batteries in a fire, do not heat.
  2. Avoid contact with metal objects.
  3. Do not fill with water.
  4. Do not buy deliberately low-quality goods, especially for mobile phones. Gadgets are in constant contact with the human body.
  5. Do not charge the phone for longer than necessary; when it reaches 80-100%, disconnect the charger.
  6. Do not charge disposable batteries.
  7. Do not allow children to swallow batteries. This is fraught with dangerous burns of the mucous membranes of the digestive tract. Exclude toys from which batteries can be easily removed (the cover is not fixed with a screw).

Explosions are rare, but their likelihood must be borne in mind. The more expensive the battery, the stronger its body. Alkaline varieties are superior in salt performance. Do not buy or use batteries or accumulators with signs of deformation - scratches, chips, dents, leaks.
