A new thermal regulator could enhance the safety of high-capacity lithium-ion batteries

High-capacity lithium-ion batteries (LIBs) could play a crucial role in the electrification of vehicles and other large electronics. To successfully deploy these batteries on a large scale, however, engineers will first need to ensure that they can safely operate at different temperatures and do not explore when overheated.
