With its high energy density and long lifespan, li-ion battery (LIB) is now dominating the power source market for portable electronics such as smartphones, laptops, and electric vehicles. However, LIB electrolyte is flammable, and the diaphragm has low stability, making it easy to cause thermal runaway (TR). This paper reviews the research progress on TR propagation characteristics and prevention strategies. The study reviewed the analysis of practical measures of battery management systems, safety devices, flame retardants, electrolyte additives, and thermal absorption materials. It also discusses accidents related to TR of LIBs to emphasise the significance of TR to the entire accident investigation and analysis process. This paper can provide useful information on how to avoid TR-related accidents.
