6 FAQs about Pack lithium battery classification

What are lithium ion batteries?

For the purposes of the DGR they are separated into lithium metal batteries and lithium-ion batteries. Lithium metal batteries are generally primary (non-rechargeable) batteries that have lithium metal or lithium compounds as an anode. Also included within lithium metal are lithium alloy batteries.

What are the different types of lithium batteries?

IATA Guidance Document for Lithium Batteries and Sodium ion Batteries – 2025 OSS/Cargo Page 16 01/01/2025 Frequently Asked Questions Part A – Questions Related to Definitions A.01 What are the various types of lithium batteries? Lithium batteries fall into two broad classifications: lithium metal batteries and lithium-ion batteries.

How many lithium batteries can a package contain?

IATA Packing Instruction 968, Section II limits lithium metal cells of more than 0.3 g but not more than 1 g to 8 per package. USDOT/PHMSA Hazardous Materials Regulations at 49 CFR 173.185 (c) (3) assigns the use of the lithium battery mark based on – among other criteria – the number of batteries or cells in the package.

Are lithium batteries rechargeable?

Lithium batteries fall into two broad classifications: lithium metal batteries and lithium-ion batteries. Lithium metal batteries are generally nonrechargeable and contain metallic lithium. - Lithium-ion batteries contain lithium which is only present in an ionic form in the electrolyte and are rechargeable.

Are lithium ion batteries packed with equipment?

E.11 I have lithium-ion batteries packed with equipment (PI 966, Section I) where the lithium ion batteries are packed in a UN specification fibreboard (4G) box and then that box is packed with the equipment in a fibreboard outer packaging. Is this an overpack?

Are lithium ion batteries regulated?

Lithium ion battery: Lithium ion batteries above the threshold of 20 Wh or 100 Wh must be marked with their watt-hour rating if manufactured after December 31, 2011. The batteries that follow are at or below the threshold amount and are subject to a lower level of regulation. Lithium metal battery: Lithium ion battery:
