Bis(2,2,2-trifluoroethyl) Carbonate As a Fire Suppressant Candidate for Lithium-Ion Batteries.

ABSTRACT: Bis(2,2,2-trifluoroethyl) carbonate (BtFEC) is a fire suppressant candidate for the use of lithium-ion batteries (LIBs). It is known that the electrolyte components in LIBs are highly flammable, making them susceptible to igniting, whether this is due to a manufacturing fault or an abuse of the LIB itself. To address this risk, the efficiency of BtFEC as a fire suppressant was investigated experimentally in a high-temperature combustion environment, allowing for further refinement and validation of the model. Using a shock tube, BtFEC combustion properties were measured experimentally behind a reflected shock wave, capturing OH* chemiluminescence to assess ignition delay times (IDT) as well as CO time-history profiles through the implementation of laser absorption spectroscopy. Both pyroly
