Fire Forensic Investigations
The widespread popularity of lithium-ion batteries for consumer products continues to increase. More and more devices in our homes and businesses utilize these energy storage devices because of their high energy density, portability, and stable cycling performance. Since these batteries have become so ubiquitous, they are frequently found at fire scenes and cells may have ruptured, exploded, or generally appear damaged. A systematic forensic investigation may be able to differentiate causal batteries from fire-attacked batteries. We utilize our battery development and manufacturing experience to understand forensic data from fires and guide exemplar product testing.
