Lithium - ion or Li - ion called rechargeable batteries have become the most popular at the moment . Therefore has many advantages such as light weight material , has good energy density and not too expensive, the Lithium - ion batteries are widely used to support smartphones , tablets , laptops and many other electronic devices . But behind the superiority Lithium - ion batteries can also be flammable , even explosive.

Lithium - ion batteries that catch fire or explode tends to be the result of a process known as thermal runaway ( thermal runaway ) . Thermal runaway is basically the excessive positive feedback resulting energy into high temperature . This causes the system to be more heat , even to burn or explode . The cause of thermal runaway itself there are various kinds , such as short-circuit and the ambient temperature exceeds 60 degrees .

Some examples of battery cases smartphone or tablet ever exploded among other things, the Samsung Galaxy S3 and S4 Galaxy in July . There also exists the iPhone also erupt in China so that a woman injured in the eye . And most recently the case of Retina iPad in Australia , which is still under investigation cause. Although it sounds terrible but not to fear the smartphone , tablet or laptop into a time bomb . Then, what solutions or preventive measures that can be done ?

Through the period of the cell in the Lithium - ion batteries will be outdated and too loud . So you have to buy a new battery if Lithium - ion batteries are 36 months old . Lastly, Lithium - ion batteries must be recharged though energy capacity in it is still 50 % because Lithium - ion batteries can be easily damaged if the voltage is too low .
