Abstract
An electrochemical battery cell with an aperture in the container or cell cover has the aperture sealed by an improved thermoplastic sealing member, which forms at least a part of the cell's pressure relief vent and is made from a material comprising a thermoplastic resin and more than 10 weight percent of a thermal-stabilizing filler, to provide an effective seal and a reliable pressure relief vent over a broad temperature range.
