Design better products and keep end users safe. Get the clear data you need to understand how batteries react to the most extreme circumstances with im体育APP’s exhaustive battery abuse testing.

The real world can subject batteries to an incredible range of damaging conditions, and the potential danger posed by malfunctioning batteries, especially lithium-ion batteries, is now well-known to the public. Abuse testing applies a range of adverse conditions to battery cells and packs in a laboratory to collect data on how they will react to similar conditions while in use. Abuse testing goes far beyond ordinary usage scenarios to assess a battery’s performance and safety.

Battery abuse testing methods

Abuse testing typically falls into four categories, but tests can be combined to mimic specific conditions and test methods or protocols can be customized to meet customer needs:

Environmental stress, including very high or very low temperature, 湿度, high altitude or vacuum, overpressure, 浸, thermal shock, 热炉, or accelerated rate calorimetry.

Mechanical stress, including vibration, mechanical shock, 破碎, nail penetration, 影响, 自由落体, 弯曲测试, and end 破碎.

Electrical stress, including over-voltage, under-voltage, over-current during charge, short circuit during discharge, and forced discharge; and

Intentional thermal runaway testing

Improve design through battery abuse testing

Battery abuse testing provides crucial information about both the battery’s performance and its safety. Damaged batteries can cause safety risks that manufacturers must preempt and mitigate before the battery enters the market, but devices that continue to perform well in extreme environments are also more attractive to customers. With a range of abuse testing options that cover all major performance and safety variables, im体育APP laboratories are your full-service battery testing solution.
