For most cases these components include oxygen.
Lipo battery case expanding.
In particularly hot areas or when left inside of cars during the summer this heat can be so great as to cause an explosion.
A lipo battery left in the sun will heat up and expand.
Chemical reactions occur at different rates as a function of temperature.
Except in a very few cases not lipo related higher temperature means a faster reaction.
Lithium polymer or lipo batteries have higher energy outputs than standard lithium batteries and they are mainly used in drones and rc vehicles.

In the case of lipo batteries the polymeric nature of the electrolyte means that they also tend to produce carbon dioxide co 2 and carbon monoxide co when they decompose.
I have not personally ever heard of a failure like this but i have seen batteries that swelled due to heat caused by the sun that never performed correctly again.
The production of these gases is what causes the case of the lipo battery to expand and swell.
You need to discharge it completely first.
A battery is also sometimes called a chemical pile meaning an assembly of components that react chemically to produce electricity.
