Can lithium batteries be shipped by air?

by:Vglory      2021-03-07
Many people may have such questions: Can lithium batteries be transported by air? Why can't lithium batteries be transported by air? If lithium batteries cannot be transported by air, then why are lithium batteries imported and exported by air? Regarding these issues, we still need to know about lithium. Batteries, airlines list lithium batteries as dangerous goods for air transportation. Why is this? This is because once a lithium battery is short-circuited and heated, it will have a chain reaction, and the spread will quickly extend to other lithium batteries, making others The lithium battery is also heated, and then the overheated lithium battery will continue to release explosive combustible gas (mostly hydrogen), and then cause explosion, which is extremely dangerous. Regarding this phenomenon, the US Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) has recently tested lithium batteries. For details, please see: Lithium batteries are dangerous for air transportation, and the three major airlines in the United States refuse to transport large quantities of lithium batteries. Therefore, airlines list lithium batteries as dangerous goods in air transport. The argument that lithium batteries cannot be transported by air: Passengers who carry electronic products with lithium batteries will not be allowed to send them with their luggage, but passengers can carry electronic products with lithium batteries in their hand luggage, such as mobile phones, cameras, and laptops. Wait, and each person can only bring no more than 2 spare batteries, and take measures to guard against battery short-circuits. In other words, on passenger planes, lithium batteries or electronic products with lithium batteries cannot be mailed. The argument that lithium batteries can be shipped by air: my country’s Foxconn’s iPhones and Chongqing-made notebook computers all have lithium batteries, but they are all shipped by air cargo to all parts of the world. Therefore, lithium batteries can be transported by cargo aircraft. Therefore, if you have lithium batteries or electronic products with lithium batteries, and the volume of goods is large, if there are all-cargo airlines where your goods are going, they can still be transported by air.
