Abstract

An extrudible hot melt adhesive material is utilized in a low cost vent for an electrochemical cell to relieve abnormal pressure formed during improper use of the cell. The extrudible hot melt adhesive material is suitably joined or bonded to a member used to provide a cell top, and covers and fills a vent hole formed in the member. Material is extruded through the vent hole by abnormal pressure to open the vent hole and allow the abnormal pressure to be released through the opened vent hole. The venting pressure can be predetermined by varying vent hole diameter, amount of adhesive, and the composition of the filler adhesive material with respect to viscosity.
