Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Lithium-ion batteries have been subject to indispensable momentum in light of the current mobile society with an increasingly stringent sustainability requirement for energy and the environment. Moreover, many other advanced secondary batteries are under rapid development for future industrial applications, including the Li-metal battery, the solid-state battery, the sodium-ion battery, etc. All these new chemistries have made battery safety a major obstacle for further application and commercialization. This Special Issue will cover the key topics in the research studies on battery safety behavior.
Potential topics include, but are not limited to, the following:
- Advanced experimental characterization of the battery safety behaviors;
- Battery safety evaluation and testing protocols;
- Battery internal short circuit mechanisms ;
- Novel modeling of battery safety behaviors
- Innovative design and optimization of battery cell/module/pack for safety purpose;
- Safety issues of next-generation battery chemistries, such as Si-based, Li-metal, and all-solid-state batteries.
This Special Issue also serves as a platform for researchers to report and share the state-of-the-art research results disseminated during the 2024 Battery Safety Workshop held in Columbia, USA in early August 2024.

Manuscript Submission Information
Manuscripts should be submitted online at www.mdpi.com by registering and logging in to this website. Once you are registered, click here to go to the submission form. Manuscripts can be submitted until the deadline. All submissions that pass pre-check are peer-reviewed. Accepted papers will be published continuously in the journal (as soon as accepted) and will be listed together on the special issue website. Research articles, review articles as well as short communications are invited. For planned papers, a title and short abstract (about 100 words) can be sent to the Editorial Office for announcement on this website.
Submitted manuscripts should not have been published previously, nor be under consideration for publication elsewhere (except conference proceedings papers). All manuscripts are thoroughly refereed through a single-blind peer-review process. A guide for authors and other relevant information for submission of manuscripts is available on the Instructions for Authors page. Batteries is an international peer-reviewed open access monthly journal published by MDPI.
Please visit the Instructions for Authors page before submitting a manuscript. The Article Processing Charge (APC) for publication in this open access journal is 2700 CHF (Swiss Francs). Submitted papers should be well formatted and use good English. Authors may use MDPI's English editing service prior to publication or during author revisions.
