Which mechanism drives thermal runaway in Li-ion batteries during crystal dendrite formation?

💡 Explanation

Joule heating from crystal dendrites increases local temperature and ionic conductivity, accelerating dendrite growth, because this creates a positive thermal feedback loop. Therefore thermal runaway occurs, rather than a stabilized temperature due to other less impactful thermoelectric effects.
