Lithium batteries, which contain lithium metal, are mainly used in watches, calculators, computer motherboards and some instruments. Lithium is a very reactive metal, once the lithium metal battery is hit in the process of transportation, the lithium in the battery will have a violent reaction to generate a lot of heat, thereby igniting the material around the fire. Therefore, during air transport, lithium metal batteries belong to Category 9 dangerous goods. According to the different packaging conditions during transport, lithium metal batteries can be divided into three types: lithium metal battery goods packaged separately, lithium metal battery goods packaged together with the equipment and lithium metal battery goods installed in the equipment.
