Invention of the New Material May Made the Non-explosion Lithium Battery Come True
An invention, called Stoba, which was developed at the Industrial Technology Research Institute (ITRI) in Taiwan, sits between the positive and negative poles of the battery. When the battery temperature hits 130 degrees centigrade, Stoba transforms from a porous material to a solid film barrier and shuts down the reaction.
