Charging current after battery undervoltage

I know that the maximum charging voltage for lithium ion batteries is 4.2v. I also know that charging a lithium ion battery involves a constant current and constant voltage phase. But what will happen if I continuously charge a lithium ion battery with a maximum of 4.0v at 100mA? Will it destroy the battery?

Why is undervoltage protection important for lithium ion batteries?

To safely operate such a battery, the discharge current rate and battery voltage level must be monitored. Undervoltage protection is crucial when using lithium-ion batteries because if the battery is discharged below its rated value, the battery will become damaged and potentially pose a safety hazard.

What happens if the battery voltage is below 3.2 volts?

when the gas gauge detects that the battery voltage is below 3.2 V, a warning is shown to the user (low battery) when the board is powered up. The system will go to sleep and the power consumption will then be quite low (100 to 500 uA). the board then relies on the battery's built-in safety PCM to cut-off the power if the voltage goes below 2.75 V.

What happens if a battery is overcharged?

What will happen is that your battery will get (maybe slowly) to 4.0 V, and, if the voltage stays, the charging current will gradually decrease, and will decrease to zero. This will put the cell into overcharged state, even if the voltage was not at maximum for the cell's capacity.

What causes a battery to overvoltage?

Major challenges to both the battery and the system it powers can be the result of deviations from this range, either too high (overvoltage) or too low (undervoltage). During charging or the system’s break down, the condition of overvoltage arises in which the battery accepts more energy than its capacity.

Does charging current affect battery overcharge performance?

The effects of charging current, restraining plate and heat dissipation condition on the overcharge performance of a 40 Ah lithium-ion battery are evaluated. The batteries overcharge behaviors show only minor changes with the increase of charging current, as the TTR remains at around 113 °C and the SOC TR decreases slightly.

How is a single lithium ion battery overcharged?

In the standards or regulations, the overcharge performance of single lithium-ion battery is evaluated through several overcharge tests, during which a controlled current is applied to the tested battery (e.g. 1/3 C) up to a set of charge limits (e.g. 2.0 SOC, 1.5 times the upper cut-off voltage).
