You know, like the fact they sometimes cause EVs to burst into flames and explode.LA startup Nanotech Energy claims to have found a way to eliminate this concern once and for all: a fireproof, graphene-based lithium-ion battery. As as result, it provides an efficient solution to overheating during charging, which is another potential cause of fire.The electrolyte is a vital part of a lithium-ion battery, as it transfers lithium ions between the two electrodes during charge and discharge.But… it’s the battery’s most flammable component.Most electrolytes in use today involve dissolving a lithium salt in a liquid material composed primarily of linear and cyclic chain carbonates.
