As it happens due to the smartphone model explosion have been reported which led Samsung to make product recall.
So, today we will discuss few major problems regarding the smartphone batteries.
But, there are actually rare cases of cell phones that exploded or caught fire spontaneously has been reported.
How a battery works ?
The name itself gives a clue: electricity flows from one electrode to another using lithium ion charge.
Batteries store, transfer and release energy due to natural chemical reactions.
It has two electrodes: an anode and a cathode.
The cathode is the positive connection (+) of a battery and retains positively charged ions.
As you might notice on electronic devices, most of them heat up when it is long running.
Then, the battery releases more heat and again the components are heated.
This process, known as thermal runaway, continues until the battery explodes or come into flames.
The heat emission and disability can leave the battery warmer, thus it can also result in an explosion.
Although it is possible to use 100% of their potential, such a measure is not always recommended.
The lithium-ion suffer greatly when the voltage is too low or when there is a little available load.
A good recommendation is to not let the charge level drops much below 50%.
