new technologies that can prevent lithium ion battery fire or explode found. Batteries for laptops and mobile phones were present in the first quarter of 2010. The discovery of the so-called Stoba was developed by the Technology Research Institute (ITRI), a national research organization in Taiwan.
When lithium ion battery has shorted out, the temperature can reach 500 degrees Celsius, and then exploded. Stoba an answer that is placed between the positive and negative sides of the battery. When the battery temperature reaches 130 degrees Celsius, Stoba porous material change in the film and stop the reaction.
"We use new materials in the battery," said Alex Pang, a senior researcher who led the study for four years.
Pang said the battery makers in Taiwan have passed the test phase and completed thousands Stoba battery cells. The product is expected to be distributed in the first quarter of 2010, he said.
Pang is currently located in Orlando, Florida, said that Stoba will only increase production costs for two to three percent.
