What are the main factors leading to thermal runaway?

Thermal runaway is mainly driven by factors such as the internal resistance of the battery, which can increase due to agitation, overcharging, or mechanical stress. Additionally, high ambient temperatures and over-discharging can contribute to the buildup of heat in a battery, leading to thermal runaway. Moreover, manufacturing defects, improper handling, and the presence of contaminants can also play a role in triggering thermal runaway events. Proper maintenance, monitoring, and adherence to safety protocols are crucial in preventing thermal runaway in battery systems.
