Abstract
A method and means for reducing the potential hazard presented by escaping electrochemical cell contents are disclosed. The invention involves associating a micromolecular sieve carrier with the cell to sorb such contents when they escape, to reduce the severity of undesired reactions of such contents. The sieve carrier is conveniently associated with the cell by being provided in a layer, e.g. in a holder, around the cell.
