Most notably, the Boeing 787 Dreamliner was grounded in 2013 due to its lithium-ion battery packs causing electrical fires mid-flight -- but there have also been a fair number of stories about exploding smartphone batteries recently, too. Now, long overdue, researchers at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill say they've built a nonflammable lithium-ion battery.
