Can co2 cartridges explode in heat？

Yes, CO2 cartridges can potentially explode if they are exposed to high heat or if they are stored in a location that is too hot. This is because CO2 is a compressed gas, and when the temperature of the cartridge exceeds the maximum safe operating temperature, the pressure inside the cartridge can increase to the point where it ruptures or explodes.

It is important to store CO2 cartridges in a cool, dry location and to avoid exposing them to high temperatures, direct sunlight, or other sources of heat. Cartridges should also be inspected regularly for signs of damage or wear, and should be replaced if they show any signs of leakage or damage.

If you need to dispose of CO2 cartridges, it is important to do so safely and in accordance with local regulations. Do not puncture, crush, or incinerate the cartridges, as this can pose a safety risk. Many communities have recycling programs or collection sites where you can safely dispose of used CO2 cartridges.
