Ion units, using organic electrolyte to promote the flow of charge.
The presence of lithium salts and solvents in the electrolyte makes the battery more flammable, and non-flammable electrolyte can have a negative impact on the performance of the battery.
In this study, published in the journal Natural Energy, the team used a solvent called a three-member phosphorus (TMP) and found that the electrolyte containing TMP lasted for a long time, than lithiumion battery.
The added salt reduces the volatility of the mixture, which means that the battery remains stable at temperatures up to 150 degrees Celsius (302 degrees Fahrenheit.
When the battery is heated to more than 150 degrees, the TMP solution immediately puts out the fire.
