What if 60 seconds could make your family safer during wildfire season? Or make you think twice before tossing that #lithium-ion #battery in the trash. At UL Research Institutes, we’re testing that idea – one science short at a time. Bite-sized. Science-backed. Life-saving. 🧪

#SafetyScience

🔋What is #thermalrunaway and why do airlines ask you if you have #lithium-ion #batteries in your luggage? Dr. Judy Jeevarajan explains what happens inside a battery and the severity of thermal runaway in our new #ScienceShort episode.

It's the Society of American Archivists #AskAnArchivistDay! 📚We asked our amazing UL Enterprise #archivists FAQs including what's one of their favorite items in the #UL collection. Check out the full video on our Instagram and YouTube page at #ULResearchInstitutes! 🧪

We study lithium-ion battery safety and the potential fire risk of #thermalrunaway to help keep people safe.

We share this knowledge—during #FirePreventionWeek, and every week, to influence better design, safer manufacturing, and smarter recycling.
