Smoke particles from Li-ion battery fire are characterised by scanning electron microscopy in combination with energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (SEM/EDX) and X-ray powder diffraction (XRPD) to evaluate their size, morphology, crystalline structure and chemical composition. Results show that battery fire smoke particles contain chemical components and crystallographic phases that are toxic for human health and the environment. Moreover, we confirm the presence of fine and ultrafine particles, reported previously, which due to their small size are inhalable and can therefore pose a serious risk to human health.
