Hello Every one!!!! I Just want to share my personal
experience with my mobile phone battery today with all of you!!!
Now-a-days Mobile phone has become a part and parcel of our lives. Keeping aside its basic functionality, we are using it for various purposes. These fancy concept of carrying a phone along with you would have been a fantasy if there were no such things called rechargeable batteries. These batteries made our lives better and brought a lot of flexibility to our lifestyle. This is just one side of a coin. On the other side of it are the gloomy facts, which when neglected may leads to a catastrophic damage. With some discipline in using the batteries and some consciousness, we can avail a lot of benefits and at the same time we can stay away from falling prey to these devices due our negligence and ignorance. With this note I am going to narrate my experience with my mobile phone battery today. In an attempt to take out my SIM card from my old mobile
phone which I have kept aside for the
past few months, I found that my mobile phone battery was bulged in the middle. In the mobile phone's jargon this is termed as
BLOATING. Every one of us is quite aware of the fact that the batteries used in
mobile phones and laptops and almost all the gadgets for that matter, uses
Li ion technology due to its excellent Energy density.
Usually due to the electro-chemical reactions taking place inside the cell,
gases are released along with some amount of heat. When this heat becomes so intense,the gas
formed due to the reaction starts increasing its volume and since the battery
is completely packed, it pushes the battery enclosure and appears to be bulged. A battery of
this status, when exposed to prolonged power supplies may lead to a blast
thereby damaging the gadgets or sometime the intensity may be too high that it may cause a fatality.
