Summary • Cells without adequate vents can explode. • Heat release, propagation and flammability vary among different chemistries of Lithium-Ion cells. • Vented gasses can accumulate and cause an explosion. • Composition of vented gasses contain H2, Hydrocarbons, CO, CO2 and concentrations vary with SOC.
