Polymer lithium batteries are widely used in many fields due to their high energy density, lightness and thinness, but a series of safety measures are also needed to ensure their safe use.
First of all, the correct charging method is crucial. A charger that matches the polymer lithium battery should be used, and inferior or incompatible chargers should be avoided. Charge strictly according to the battery's charging parameters, including charging voltage, current and time. Avoid overcharging, as overcharging may cause increased internal pressure, heat and even fire and explosion hazards.
Secondly, it is equally important to prevent over-discharge. Over-discharge can cause irreversible damage to the battery and reduce battery performance and life. When using the device, pay attention to the device's power prompt and charge in time to avoid running out of battery power. At the same time, some devices may have over-discharge protection functions, and these functions should be ensured to operate normally.
In addition, avoid high and low temperature environments. Polymer lithium batteries are prone to thermal runaway in high temperature environments, while their performance will decrease in low temperature environments. Therefore, avoid exposing the battery to high temperature (such as direct sunlight, near heat sources, etc.) or low temperature (such as extremely cold weather) environments. When storing and using the battery, keep it within a suitable temperature range.
In addition, preventing physical damage is also key. Avoid physical damage to the battery such as squeezing, impact, and puncture. When carrying and using the battery, it should be properly protected and avoid contact with sharp objects. If the battery has abnormal conditions such as bulging or leakage, stop using it immediately and take appropriate treatment measures.
In addition, check and maintain the battery regularly. Check the appearance and performance of the battery regularly, and deal with any abnormalities in a timely manner. For batteries that are not used for a long time, they should be properly stored and maintained, and charged and discharged regularly to maintain the activity of the battery.
In short, through the correct charging method, preventing over-discharge, avoiding extreme temperatures, preventing physical damage, and regular inspection and maintenance and other safety measures, the safe use of Polymer lithium battery can be effectively ensured, safety risks can be reduced, and reliable energy support can be provided to users.
