Abstract:
With the vigorous promotion of the national "dual-carbon" program, the new energy industry represented by lithium-ion batteries is developing rapidly, and micro-and nano-scale cathode materials, as the core components of lithium-ion batteries, have been applied and produced in large quantities, and the industrial population has increased dramatically, but the health effects of their occupational exposure are still not clear. This paper summarizes the potential health hazards of exposure to this new type of material in terms of the main types and characteristics of cathode materials, health hazard studies and exposure limits. It establishes a scientific foundation for occupational health risk assessment in workers exposed to cathode materials.
