根因分析
锂离子电池火灾经历热失控,内部产生氧气且温度超过1000°C;A类灭火器无效,因为水会导电并可能导致短路,而毯子无法隔绝氧气。
English
Lithium-ion battery fires undergo thermal runaway, generating oxygen internally and reaching temperatures above 1000°C; Class A extinguishers are ineffective because water conducts electricity and can cause short circuits, while blankets fail to starve the fire of oxygen.

-
Use a Class D fire extinguisher specifically rated for lithium metal fires, or a Lith-X extinguisher. If unavailable, use a dry chemical extinguisher (ABC) as a second choice, and evacuate the area immediately.
-
For small battery fires (e.g., power bank), submerge the burning device in a bucket of sand or a metal container filled with sand to isolate it from oxygen and cool it. Do not use water.
-
Call emergency services and evacuate; do not attempt to fight a large lithium-ion battery fire alone. Provide the exact battery type (e.g., LiPo, LiFePO4) to responders.
无效尝试
常见但无效的做法:
-
95% 失败
Using water on a lithium battery fire can cause hydrogen gas generation and explosion, and water spreads the burning electrolyte.
-
90% 失败
Smothering with a blanket does not stop thermal runaway because the battery generates its own oxygen; it only delays the fire and can reignite.
-
85% 失败
Using a Class C (CO2) extinguisher may cool the battery temporarily but does not stop the chemical reaction, leading to re-ignition.
