External Barrier and Internal Attack: Synergistic Effect of Microcapsule Fire Extinguishing Agent and Fine Water Mist on Suppressing Lithium-Ion Battery Fire
2025
Overview
When lithium-ion batteries experience thermal runaway, a large amount of heat rapidly accumulates inside, causing the internal pressure to rise sharply. Once the pressure exceeds the battery’s safety valve design capacity, the valve activates and releases flammable gas. If ignited in a high-temperature environment, the escaping gas can cause a jet fire containing high-temperature substances. Effectively controlling the internal temperature of the jet fire, especially rapidly cooling the core area of the flame during the jet process, is important to prevent the spread of lithium-ion battery fires. Therefore, this work proposes a strategy of a synergistic effect using microcapsule fire extinguishing agents and fine water mist to achieve an external barrier and an internal attack. The microcapsule fire extinguishing agents are prepared by using melamine–urea–formaldehyde resin as the shell and 1,1,1,2,2,3,3,4,4-nonafluoro-4-methoxybutane (C5H3F9O) and 1,1,2,2,3,3,4-heptafluorocyclopentane (C5H3F7) as the composite core. During the process of lithium-ion battery thermal runaway, the microcapsule fire extinguishing agents can enter the inner area of the jet fire under the protection of the fine water mist. The microcapsule shell ruptures at 100 °C, releasing the highly effective composite fire suppressant core inside the jet fire. The fine water mist significantly blocks the transfer of thermal radiation, inhibiting the spread of the fire. Compared to the suppression with fine water mist only, the time required to reduce the battery temperature from the peak value to a low temperature is reduced by 66 s and the peak temperature of the high-temperature substances above the battery is reduced by 228.2 °C. The propagation of the thermal runaway is suppressed, and no thermal runaway of other batteries around the faulty unit will occur. This synergistic suppression strategy of fine water mist and microcapsule fire extinguishing agent (FWM@M) effectively reduces the adverse effects of jet fires on the propagation of thermal runaway (TR) of lithium-ion batteries, providing a new solution for efficiently extinguishing lithium-ion battery fires.
