Lithium batteries are widely used in electronic devices due to their high energy density and long life span. However, one of the common problems that users may encounter is battery swelling. This issue can be caused by several factors, including high temperatures, overcharging, physical damage, and aging of the battery. In this article, we will discuss the reasons behind lithium battery swelling, whether it is dangerous, if all lithium batteries swell, and what to do if you have a bulging lithium-ion battery.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Lithium batteries are widely used in various electronic devices due to their high energy density, low self-discharge rate, and long life span. However, lithium batteries can experience swelling, which is a common problem in electronic devices.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
One of the primary causes of lithium<\/a> battery swelling is the buildup of gas inside the battery due to the decomposition of the electrolyte. The decomposition of the electrolyte can occur due to high temperatures, overcharging, and aging of the battery. The gas buildup causes the internal pressure to increase, which leads to the swelling of the battery.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
