"textContent": "A vent for an electric vehicle battery pack configured to transition from a venting, open position to a sealed, closed position in the event of a thermal event experienced by the electric vehicle battery pack, thereby trapping the gasses within the electric vehicle battery pack, including a curved disc shaped and sized to selectively seal an aperture defined by the electric vehicle battery pack, the curved disc formed of a first material on a first major surface of the disc, and a second material positioned on an opposing second major surface of the disc, the first material having a larger coefficient of thermal expansion than the second material, such that an increase in temperature above a defined threshold experienced by the curved disc causes the first material to expand more than the second material, thereby transitioning the curved disc from a first equilibrium state to a second equilibrium state.",
