The term “lithium battery” refers to a family of different chemistries, comprising many
types of cathodes and electrolytes. For the purposes of the Regulations they
are separated into:
• Lithium metal batteries. Are normally primary (non-rechargeable) batteries that
have lithium metal or lithium compounds as an anode. The most common type
of lithium cell used in consumer applications uses metallic lithium as anode
and manganese dioxide as cathode, with a salt of lithium dissolved in an or-
ganic solvent; and
• Lithium-ion batteries (sometimes abbreviated Li-ion batteries). Are a type of
secondary (rechargeable) battery commonly used in consumer electronics.
Also included within lithium-ion batteries are lithium polymer batteries.
