So, are lithium iron phosphate batteries safe and durable, and what are the reasons?
Let’s explain from the aspects of materials, structural stability, and charge-discharge characteristics.
1. Lithium iron phosphate is currently the safest cathode material and does not contain any heavy metal elements harmful to the human body. Oxygen is difficult to precipitate in its olivine structure, which improves the stability of the material.
2. During charging and discharging of lithium iron phosphate battery, due to the weak oxidation ability of iron ions, oxygen will not be released, and it is difficult to undergo oxidation-reduction reaction with the electrolyte, so that the charging and discharging process of lithium iron phosphate battery is in a safe environment.
3. The lithium iron phosphate battery can maintain the stability of the physical structure during the process of large-rate discharge, even overcharge and discharge, and will not cause the phenomenon of battery explosion due to the increase in volume, and the safety is extremely high.
Lithium iron phosphate batteries are safer than Lithium-ion batteries such as lithium cobalt oxide. Lithium iron phosphate batteries will not explode or burn, whether they are overcharged, short-circuited, or subjected to squeeze, impact, disintegration, or high-temperature baking, and are highly safe.
Lithium-ion battery (LIB) has become the main energy storage solution in modern social life. Among them, lithium iron phosphate batteries are a perfect replacement for lead-acid batteries, and are the first choice for grid-connected peak shaving, off-grid energy storage, photovoltaic energy storage, UPS, data centers and other industries.
