will lithium-ion batteries power cars?2

Lithium-
Do you remember when the laptop exploded on 2006?
It\'s lithium-ion battery.
The random explosion caused by overheating is not a common problem, but despite this, lithium-
Sony, the maker of ion batteries, has launched its first commercial Li-
In 1991, the ion battery had to recall more than 6 million computers [source: Lamb].
In the years since then, Li
Ion batteries have not yet fully restored their reputation for safety.
Now you can see why putting it in the car makes some people a little fidgety.
Why is there an explosion? Li-
The working principle of the ion battery is to separate its positive and negative side through a thin layer called electrolyte.
The electrolyte is perforated to allow the lithium ion to pass through the other side from one side of the chamber, resulting in a current.
Tiny metal fragments generated during the manufacturing process may be stuck in these piercings, thus preventing the free flow of ions.
Then, the pressure and heat build up and cause an explosion.
In addition, allowing ions to move too fast can also cause overheating.
So how is everything

Ion batteries under the hood won\'t be hit hardup?
The Tesla energy storage system that drives the car is equipped with a cooling system to ensure that the battery does not overheat.
It also regulates the speed of the ion flow to prevent the ion from flowing again
Charge or drain too fast.
Since the car companies and scientists realized that Li-
They put a lot of time and money into finding ways to reduce potential safety hazards.
For example, nanotechnology that studies atoms and nanoparticles may be able to prevent these dangerous explosions.
New nano-materials, such as nano-phosphate, are not easy to short-circuit like traditional Li-graphite

When it comes to time and money, before Li
Ion batteries are an important entry point for them to enter the world of consumer cars and they need to be cheaper and longer --lasting.
