Nanyang Technological University (NTU) scientists have claimed to have invented a battery component that provides an added layer of protection to prevent short circuits, the leading cause of fires in lithium-ion (Li-ion) batteries. The “anti-short layer” can be easily added inside Li-ion batteries to prevent short circuits during charging.
