The purpose of the airbag is to provide a vehicle occupant with soft cushioning and restraint during a collision. It can reduce injuries between the flailing occupant and the vehicle's interior. The airbag provides an energy-absorbing surface between the vehicle's occupants and a steering wheel, instrument panel, <a href="/wiki/Pillar_(car)" title="Pillar (car)">body pillar</a>, headliner, and <a href="/wiki/Windshield" title="Windshield">windshield</a>. Modern <a href="/wiki/Vehicle" title="Vehicle">vehicles</a> may contain up to ten airbag modules in various configurations, including driver, passenger, side-curtain, seat-mounted, door-mounted, B and C-pillar mounted side-impact, knee bolster, inflatable seat belt, and pedestrian airbag modules. During a crash, the vehicle's crash sensors provide crucial information to the airbag electronic controller unit (ECU), including collision type, angle, and severity of impact. Using this information, the airbag ECU's crash algorithm determines if the crash event meets the criteria for deployment and triggers various firing circuits to deploy one or more airbag modules within the vehicle. Airbag module deployments are activated through a <a href="/wiki/Pyrotechnics" title="Pyrotechnics">pyrotechnic</a> process designed to be used once as a supplemental restraint system for the vehicle's seat belt systems. Newer side-impact airbag modules consist of compressed-air cylinders that are triggered in the event of a side-on vehicle impact.<a href="#cite_note-2">[2]</a> The first commercial designs were introduced in passenger automobiles during the 1970s, with limited success and caused some fatalities.<a href="#cite_note-3">[3]</a> Broad commercial adoption of airbags occurred in many markets during the late 1980s and early 1990s. Many modern vehicles now include six or more units.<a href="#cite_note-4">[4]</a> <style data-mw-deduplicate="TemplateStyles:r886046785">.mw-parser-output .toclimit-2 .toclevel-1 ul,.mw-parser-output .toclimit-3 .toclevel-2 ul,.mw-parser-output .toclimit-4 .toclevel-3 ul,.mw-parser-output .toclimit-5 .toclevel-4 ul,.mw-parser-output .toclimit-6 .toclevel-5 ul,.mw-parser-output .toclimit-7 .toclevel-6 ul{display:none}</style><div class="toclimit-3"><meta property="mw:PageProp/toc" /></div> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Active_vs._passive_safety">Active vs. passive safety</h2>[<a href="/w/index.php?title=Airbag&action=edit&section=1" title="Edit section: Active vs. passive safety">edit</a>]</div> Airbags are considered "passive" restraints and act as a supplement to "active" restraints. Because no action by a vehicle occupant is required to activate or use the airbag, it is considered a "passive" device. This is in contrast to <a href="/wiki/Seat_belt" title="Seat belt">seat belts</a>, which are considered "active" devices because the vehicle occupant must act to enable them.<a href="#cite_note-5">[5]</a><a href="#cite_note-6">[6]</a><a href="#cite_note-7">[7]</a><a href="#cite_note-8">[8]</a> This terminology is not related to <a href="/wiki/Automobile_safety#Active_and_passive_safety" class="mw-redirect" title="Automobile safety">active and passive safety</a>, which are, respectively, systems designed to prevent collisions in the first place, and systems designed to minimize the effects of collisions once they occur. In this use, a car <a href="/wiki/Anti-lock_braking_system" title="Anti-lock braking system">Anti-lock braking system</a> qualifies as an active-safety device, while both its seat belts and airbags qualify as passive-safety devices. Terminological confusion can arise from the fact that passive devices and systems—those requiring no input or action by the vehicle occupant—can operate independently in an active manner; an airbag is one such device.

The airbags proposed by Hetrick and Linderer were based on compressed air released by a spring, bumper contact, or by the driver.

The early fleet of experimental GM vehicles equipped with airbags experienced seven fatalities, one of which was later suspected to have been caused by the airbag.<a href="#cite_note-35">[35]</a> In 1974, GM made its ACRS system (which consisted of a padded lower dashboard and a passenger-side air bag) available as a regular production option (RPO code AR3) in full-sized Cadillac,<a href="#cite_note-36">[36]</a> Buick and Oldsmobile models. The GM cars from the 1970s equipped with ACRS had a driver-side airbag, and a driver-side knee restraint.<a href="#cite_note-oldcarbrochures1974-37">[37]</a> The passenger-side airbag protected both front passengers,<a href="#cite_note-oldcarbrochures1974-37">[37]</a> and unlike most modern systems, integrated a knee and torso cushion while also having a dual-stage deployment dictated by force of the impact. The cars equipped with ACRS had lap belts for all seating positions, but lacked shoulder belts. Shoulder belts were already mandatory in the United States on closed cars without airbags for the driver and outer front passenger, but GM chose to market its airbags as a substitute for shoulder belts. Prices for this option on Cadillac models were US$225 in 1974, $300 in 1975, and $340 in 1976 (US$1,820 in 2023 dollars <a href="#cite_note-inflation-US-38">[38]</a>). The early development of airbags coincided with international interest in automobile safety legislation. Some safety experts advocated a <a href="/wiki/Risk_assessment" title="Risk assessment">performance-based</a> occupant-protection standard rather than one mandating a particular technical solution (which could rapidly become outdated and prove to not be a <a href="/wiki/Cost-effectiveness_analysis" title="Cost-effectiveness analysis">cost-effective</a> approach).

The <a href="/wiki/Peugeot_306" title="Peugeot 306">Peugeot 306</a> is one example of the European automotive mass-market evolution: starting in early 1993, most of these models did not even offer a driver's airbag as an option, but by 1999, even side airbags were available on several variants. <a href="/wiki/Audi" title="Audi">Audi</a> was late to offer airbag systems on a broader scale, since even in the 1994 model year, its popular models did not offer airbags. Instead, the German automaker until then relied solely on its proprietary cable-based <a href="/wiki/Procon-ten" title="Procon-ten">procon-ten</a> restraint system. <a href="/wiki/Adaptive_airbag" class="mw-redirect" title="Adaptive airbag">Variable force-deployment</a> front airbags were developed to help minimize injury from the airbag itself. The emergence of the airbag has contributed to a sharp decline in the number of deaths and serious injuries on the roads of Europe since 1990, and by 2010, the number of cars on European roads lacking an airbag represented a very small percentage of cars, mostly the remaining cars dating from the mid-1990s or earlier.

When the airbag deploys, the sail panel cushions the occupant's head from the impact of hitting the airbag, and the three chambers hold the occupant's head in place, like a catcher's mitt. The goal of the tri-chamber airbag is to help "arrest high-speed movement" of the head, thereby reducing the likelihood of concussion injuries in a collision. The first vehicle to come with the tri-chamber airbag installed from the factory was in 2020 (for the 2021 model year) for the <a href="/wiki/Acura_TLX" title="Acura TLX">Acura TLX</a>. Honda hopes that the new technology will soon make its way to all vehicles.<a href="#cite_note-61">[61]</a> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading5"><h5 id="Rear_airbag">Rear airbag</h5>[<a href="/w/index.php?title=Airbag&action=edit&section=8" title="Edit section: Rear airbag">edit</a>]</div> Mercedes began offering rear passengers protection in frontal collisions in September 2020 (for the 2021 model year) for the <a href="/wiki/Mercedes-Benz_S-Class_(W223)" title="Mercedes-Benz S-Class (W223)">Mercedes-Benz S-Class (W223)</a>.<a href="#cite_note-62">[62]</a> The W223 S-Class is the first car equipped with rear seat airbags that use gas to inflate supporting structures that unfold and extend a bag that fills with ambient air, instead of conventional fully gas-inflated airbags that are widely used in automotive airbag systems.<a href="#cite_note-63">[63]</a><a href="#cite_note-64">[64]</a> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading4"><h4 id="Side_airbag">Side airbag</h4>[<a href="/w/index.php?title=Airbag&action=edit&section=9" title="Edit section: Side airbag">edit</a>]</div> <figure class="mw-default-size" typeof="mw:File/Thumb"><a href="/wiki/File:Seitenairbag_Porsche.jpg" class="mw-file-description"><img src="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/a/ac/Seitenairbag_Porsche.jpg/220px-Seitenairbag_Porsche.jpg" decoding="async" width="220" height="165" class="mw-file-element" srcset="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/a/ac/Seitenairbag_Porsche.jpg/330px-Seitenairbag_Porsche.jpg 1.5x, //upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/a/ac/Seitenairbag_Porsche.jpg/440px-Seitenairbag_Porsche.jpg 2x" data-file-width="2580" data-file-height="1932" /></a><figcaption>Side airbag on a <a href="/wiki/Porsche_996" class="mw-redirect" title="Porsche 996">Porsche 996</a> inflated permanently for display purposes</figcaption></figure> <figure class="mw-default-size" typeof="mw:File/Thumb"><a href="/wiki/File:Curtainairbags.JPG" class="mw-file-description"><img src="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/f/f1/Curtainairbags.JPG/220px-Curtainairbags.JPG" decoding="async" width="220" height="147" class="mw-file-element" srcset="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/f/f1/Curtainairbags.JPG/330px-Curtainairbags.JPG 1.5x, //upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/f/f1/Curtainairbags.JPG/440px-Curtainairbags.JPG 2x" data-file-width="2160" data-file-height="1440" /></a><figcaption>Deployed curtain airbag and side torso airbag in a <a href="/wiki/Citro%C3%ABn_C4" title="Citroën C4">Citroën C4</a> </figcaption></figure> Essentially, two types of side airbags are commonly used today[<a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:Manual_of_Style/Dates_and_numbers#Chronological_items" title="Wikipedia:Manual of Style/Dates and numbers">when?</a>] - the side-torso airbag and the side-curtain airbag.

Oftentimes, ACUs log this—and other—sensor data in a circular buffer and record it to onboard non-volatile memory, to provide a snapshot of the crash event for investigators. As such, an ACU frequently functions as the vehicle's <a href="/wiki/Event_data_recorder" title="Event data recorder">event data recorder</a>; not all EDRs are ACUs, and not all ACUs include EDR features.<a href="#cite_note-TRB-report-108">[108]</a>: 15  An ACU typically includes capacitors within its circuitry, so that the module remains powered and able to deploy the airbags if the vehicle's battery connection to the ACU is severed during a crash.<a href="#cite_note-TRB-report-108">[108]</a>: 102 <a href="#cite_note-MCFRS-109">[109]</a>: 3  The bag itself and its inflation mechanism are concealed within the steering wheel boss (for the driver), or the dashboard (for the front passenger), behind plastic flaps or doors that are designed to tear open under the force of the bag inflating. Once the requisite threshold has been reached or exceeded, the airbag control unit will trigger the ignition of a <a href="/wiki/Gas_generator" title="Gas generator">gas generator</a> propellant to rapidly inflate a fabric bag. As the vehicle occupant collides with and squeezes the bag, the gas escapes in a controlled manner through small vent holes. The airbag's volume and the size of the vents in the bag are tailored to each vehicle type, to spread out the deceleration of (and thus force experienced by) the occupant over time and over the occupant's body, compared to a seat belt alone. The signals from the various sensors are fed into the airbag control unit, which determines from them the angle of impact, the severity, or the force of the crash, along with other variables. Depending on the result of these calculations, the ACU may also deploy various additional restraint devices, such as <a href="/wiki/Seat_belt" title="Seat belt">seat belt</a> pre-tensioners, and/or airbags (including frontal bags for driver and front passenger, along with seat-mounted side bags, and "curtain" airbags which cover the side glass). Each restraint device is typically activated with one or more <a href="/wiki/Pyrotechnic" class="mw-redirect" title="Pyrotechnic">pyrotechnic</a> devices, commonly called an initiator or <a href="/wiki/Electric_match" title="Electric match">electric match</a>. The electric match, which consists of an electrical conductor wrapped in a combustible material, activates with a current pulse between 1 and 3 amperes in less than 2 milliseconds. When the conductor becomes hot enough, it ignites the combustible material, which initiates the gas generator. In a seat belt pre-tensioner, this hot gas is used to drive a piston that pulls the slack out of the seat belt. In an airbag, the initiator is used to ignite solid propellant inside the airbag inflator. The burning propellant generates inert gas which rapidly inflates the airbag in approximately 20 to 30 milliseconds. An airbag must inflate quickly to be fully inflated by the time the forward-traveling occupant reaches its outer surface. Typically, the decision to deploy an airbag in a frontal crash is made within 15 to 30 milliseconds after the onset of the crash, and both the driver and passenger airbags are fully inflated within approximately 60–80 milliseconds after the first moment of vehicle contact. If an airbag deploys too late or too slowly, the risk of occupant injury from contact with the inflating airbag may increase. Since more distance typically exists between the passenger and the instrument panel, the passenger airbag is larger and requires more gas to fill it. Older airbag systems contained a mixture of <a href="/wiki/Sodium_azide" title="Sodium azide">sodium azide</a> (NaN3), KNO3, and SiO2. A typical driver-side airbag contains approximately 50–80 g of NaN3, with the larger passenger-side airbag containing about 250 g. Within about 40 milliseconds of impact, all these components react in three separate reactions that produce nitrogen gas. The reactions, in order, are as follows. <ol><li>2 NaN3 → 2 Na + 3 N2 (g)</li> <li>10 Na + 2 KNO3 → K2O + 5 Na2O + N2 (g)</li> <li>K2O + Na2O + 2 SiO2 → K2SiO3 + Na2SiO3</li></ol> The first two reactions create 4 molar equivalents of nitrogen gas, and the third converts the remaining reactants to relatively inert <a href="/wiki/Potassium_silicate" title="Potassium silicate">potassium silicate</a> and <a href="/wiki/Sodium_silicate" title="Sodium silicate">sodium silicate</a>. The reason that KNO3 is used rather than something like NaNO3 is because it is less hygroscopic. The materials used in this reaction must not be hygroscopic because absorbed moisture can de-sensitize the system and cause the reaction to fail. The particle size of the initial reactants is important to reliable operation.<a href="#cite_note-110">[110]</a> The NaN3 and KNO3 must be between 10 and 20 <a href="/wiki/%CE%9Cm" class="mw-redirect" title="Μm">µm</a>, while the SiO2 must be between 5 and 10 µm. There are ongoing efforts to find alternative compounds so that airbags have less toxic reactants.<a href="#cite_note-111">[111]</a> In a journal article by Akiyoshi et al., it was found that for the reaction of the Sr complex nitrate, (Sr(NH2NHCONHNH2)∙(NO3)2) of carbohydrazide (SrCDH) with various oxidizing agents resulted in the evolution of N2 and CO2 gases. Using KBrO3 as the oxidizing agent resulted in the most vigorous reaction as well as the lowest initial temperature of the reaction. The N2 and CO2 gases evolved made up 99% of all gases evolved.<a href="#cite_note-112">[112]</a> Nearly all the starting materials will not decompose until reaching temperatures of 500 °C or higher, so this could be a viable option as an airbag gas generator. In a patent containing another plausible alternative to NaN3 driven airbags, the gas-generating materials involved the use of <a href="/wiki/Guanidine_nitrate" title="Guanidine nitrate">guanidine nitrate</a>, <a href="/wiki/5-aminotetrazole" class="mw-redirect" title="5-aminotetrazole">5-aminotetrazole</a>, bitetrazole dihydrate, <a href="/wiki/Nitroimidazole" title="Nitroimidazole">nitroimidazole</a>, and basic <a href="/wiki/Copper_nitrate" class="mw-redirect" title="Copper nitrate">copper nitrate</a>. It was found that these non-azide reagents allowed for a less toxic, lower combustion temperature reaction, and more easily disposable airbag inflation system.<a href="#cite_note-113">[113]</a> Front airbags normally do not protect the occupants during side, rear, or rollover collisions.<a href="#cite_note-114">[114]</a> Since airbags deploy only once and deflate quickly after the initial impact, they will not be beneficial during a subsequent collision. Safety belts help reduce the risk of injury in many types of crashes. They help to properly position occupants to maximize the airbag's benefits and they help restrain occupants during the initial and any following collisions. In vehicles equipped with a rollover sensing system, accelerometers, and gyroscopes are used to sense the onset of a rollover event. If a rollover event is determined to be imminent, <a href="/wiki/Side_curtain_airbag" class="mw-redirect" title="Side curtain airbag">side-curtain</a> airbags are deployed to help protect the occupant from contact with the side of the vehicle interior, and also to help prevent occupant ejection as the vehicle rolls over. <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="Triggering_conditions">Triggering conditions</h3>[<a href="/w/index.php?title=Airbag&action=edit&section=21" title="Edit section: Triggering conditions">edit</a>]</div> <figure class="mw-default-size" typeof="mw:File/Thumb"><a href="/wiki/File:Peugeot_206_1999_Hatchback_1.1_TU1JP(HFZ)_05.JPG" class="mw-file-description"><img src="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/d/d8/Peugeot_206_1999_Hatchback_1.1_TU1JP%28HFZ%29_05.JPG/220px-Peugeot_206_1999_Hatchback_1.1_TU1JP%28HFZ%29_05.JPG" decoding="async" width="220" height="147" class="mw-file-element" srcset="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/d/d8/Peugeot_206_1999_Hatchback_1.1_TU1JP%28HFZ%29_05.JPG/330px-Peugeot_206_1999_Hatchback_1.1_TU1JP%28HFZ%29_05.JPG 1.5x, //upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/d/d8/Peugeot_206_1999_Hatchback_1.1_TU1JP%28HFZ%29_05.JPG/440px-Peugeot_206_1999_Hatchback_1.1_TU1JP%28HFZ%29_05.JPG 2x" data-file-width="3072" data-file-height="2048" /></a><figcaption>Some cars provide the option to turn off the passenger airbag</figcaption></figure> Airbags are designed to deploy in frontal and near-frontal collisions more severe than a threshold defined by the regulations governing vehicle construction in whatever particular market the vehicle is intended for: United States regulations require deployment in crashes at least equivalent in deceleration to a 23 km/h (14 mph) barrier collision, or similarly, striking a parked car of similar size across the full front of each vehicle at about twice the speed.<a href="#cite_note-115">[115]</a> International regulations are performance-based, rather than technology-based, so airbag deployment threshold is a function of overall vehicle design. Unlike <a href="/wiki/Crash_test" title="Crash test">crash tests</a> into barriers, real-world crashes typically occur at angles other than directly into the front of the vehicle, and the crash forces usually are not evenly distributed across the front of the vehicle. Consequently, the relative speed between a striking and struck vehicle required to deploy the airbag in a real-world crash can be much higher than an equivalent barrier crash. Because airbag sensors measure deceleration, the vehicle speed is not a good indicator of whether an airbag should be deployed. Airbags can deploy due to the vehicle's undercarriage striking a low object protruding above the roadway due to the resulting deceleration. The airbag sensor is a <a href="/wiki/Microelectromechanical_systems" class="mw-redirect" title="Microelectromechanical systems">MEMS</a> <a href="/wiki/Accelerometer" title="Accelerometer">accelerometer</a>, which is a small <a href="/wiki/Integrated_circuit" title="Integrated circuit">integrated circuit</a> with integrated micromechanical elements. The microscopic mechanical element moves in response to rapid deceleration, and this motion causes a change in capacitance, which is detected by the electronics on the chip that then sends a signal to fire the airbag. The most common MEMS accelerometer in use is the ADXL-50 by <a href="/wiki/Analog_Devices" title="Analog Devices">Analog Devices</a>, but there are other MEMS manufacturers as well. Initial attempts using <a href="/wiki/Mercury_switch" title="Mercury switch">mercury switches</a> did not work well. Before MEMS, the primary system used to deploy airbags was called a "<a href="/wiki/Rolamite" title="Rolamite">rolamite</a>". A rolamite is a mechanical device, consisting of a roller suspended within a tensioned band. As a result of the particular geometry and material properties used, the roller is free to translate with little <a href="/wiki/Friction" title="Friction">friction</a> or <a href="/wiki/Hysteresis" title="Hysteresis">hysteresis</a>. This device was developed at <a href="/wiki/Sandia_National_Laboratories" title="Sandia National Laboratories">Sandia National Laboratories</a>. Rolamite and similar macro-mechanical devices were used in airbags until the mid-1990s after which they were universally replaced with MEMS. Nearly all airbags are designed to automatically deploy in the event of a vehicle fire when temperatures reach 150–200 °C (302–392 °F).<a href="#cite_note-116">[116]</a> This safety feature, often termed auto-ignition, helps to ensure that such temperatures do not cause an explosion of the entire airbag module.

Although propellants containing the highly toxic <a href="/wiki/Sodium_azide" title="Sodium azide">sodium azide</a> (NaN3) were common in early inflator designs, little to no toxic sodium azide has been found on used airbags. The azide-containing pyrotechnic gas generators contain a substantial amount of the propellant. The driver-side airbag would contain a canister containing about 50 grams of sodium azide. The passenger side container holds about 200 grams of sodium azide.<a href="#cite_note-117">[117]</a>[<a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:NOTRS" class="mw-redirect" title="Wikipedia:NOTRS">better source needed</a>][<a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:NOTRS" class="mw-redirect" title="Wikipedia:NOTRS">better source needed</a>] The alternative propellants may incorporate, for example, a combination of <a href="/wiki/Nitroguanidine" title="Nitroguanidine">nitroguanidine</a>, phase-stabilized <a href="/wiki/Ammonium_nitrate" title="Ammonium nitrate">ammonium nitrate</a> (NH4NO3) or another nonmetallic oxidizer, and a nitrogen-rich fuel different from azide (e.g. <a href="/wiki/Tetrazole" title="Tetrazole">tetrazoles</a>, <a href="/wiki/Triazole" title="Triazole">triazoles</a>, and their salts).

From the onset of the crash, the entire deployment and inflation process is about 0.04 seconds. Because vehicles change speed so quickly in a crash, airbags must inflate rapidly to reduce the risk of the occupant hitting the vehicle's interior. <div class="mw-heading mw-heading4"><h4 id="Variable-force_deployment">Variable-force deployment</h4>[<a href="/w/index.php?title=Airbag&action=edit&section=23" title="Edit section: Variable-force deployment">edit</a>]</div> Advanced airbag technologies are being developed to tailor airbag deployment to the severity of the crash, the size, and posture of the vehicle occupant, belt usage, and how close that person is to the actual airbag. Many of these systems use multi-stage inflators that deploy less forcefully in stages in moderate crashes than in very severe crashes. Occupant sensing devices let the airbag control unit know if someone is occupying a seat adjacent to an airbag, the mass/weight of the person, whether a seat belt or child restraint is being used, and whether the person is forward in the seat and close to the airbag. Based on this information and crash severity information, the airbag is deployed at either a high force level, a less forceful level, or not at all. Adaptive airbag systems may utilize multi-stage airbags to adjust the pressure within the airbag. The greater the pressure within the airbag, the more force the airbag will exert on the occupants as they come in contact with it. These adjustments allow the system to deploy the airbag with a moderate force for most collisions; reserving the maximum force airbag only for the severest of collisions. Additional sensors to determine the location, weight or relative size of the occupants may also be used. Information regarding the occupants and the severity of the crash are used by the airbag control unit, to determine whether airbags should be suppressed or deployed, and if so, at various output levels. <figure class="mw-default-size" typeof="mw:File/Thumb"><a href="/wiki/File:Airbag_SEAT_Ibiza.jpg" class="mw-file-description"><img src="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/2/20/Airbag_SEAT_Ibiza.jpg/220px-Airbag_SEAT_Ibiza.jpg" decoding="async" width="220" height="187" class="mw-file-element" srcset="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/2/20/Airbag_SEAT_Ibiza.jpg/330px-Airbag_SEAT_Ibiza.jpg 1.5x, //upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/2/20/Airbag_SEAT_Ibiza.jpg/440px-Airbag_SEAT_Ibiza.jpg 2x" data-file-width="600" data-file-height="509" /></a><figcaption>Post-deployment view of a <a href="/wiki/SEAT_Ibiza" title="SEAT Ibiza">SEAT Ibiza</a> airbag</figcaption></figure> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading4"><h4 id="Post-deployment">Post-deployment</h4>[<a href="/w/index.php?title=Airbag&action=edit&section=24" title="Edit section: Post-deployment">edit</a>]</div> A chemical reaction produces a burst of nitrogen to inflate the bag. Once an airbag deploys, deflation begins immediately as the gas escapes through vent(s) in the fabric (or, as it is sometimes called, the cushion) and cools. Deployment is frequently accompanied by the release of dust-like particles, and gases in the vehicle's interior (called effluent). Most of this dust consists of <a href="/wiki/Cornstarch" class="mw-redirect" title="Cornstarch">cornstarch</a>, <a href="/wiki/French_chalk" class="mw-redirect" title="French chalk">french chalk</a>, or <a href="/wiki/Talcum_powder" class="mw-redirect" title="Talcum powder">talcum powder</a>, which are used to lubricate the airbag during deployment. Newer designs produce effluent primarily consisting of harmless talcum powder/cornstarch and nitrogen gas. In older designs using an azide-based propellant (usually NaN3), varying amounts of <a href="/wiki/Sodium_hydroxide" title="Sodium hydroxide">sodium hydroxide</a> nearly always are initially present. In small amounts this chemical can cause minor irritation to the eyes and/or open wounds; however, with exposure to air, it quickly turns into <a href="/wiki/Sodium_bicarbonate" title="Sodium bicarbonate">sodium bicarbonate</a> (baking soda). However, this transformation is not 100% complete, and invariably leaves residual amounts of hydroxide ions from NaOH. Depending on the type of airbag system, <a href="/wiki/Potassium_chloride" title="Potassium chloride">potassium chloride</a> may also be present. For most people, the only effect the dust may produce is some minor irritation of the throat and eyes. Generally, minor irritations only occur when the occupant remains in the vehicle for many minutes with the windows closed and no ventilation. However, some people with <a href="/wiki/Asthma" title="Asthma">asthma</a> may develop a potentially lethal asthmatic attack from inhaling the dust. Because of the airbag exit flap design of the steering wheel boss and dashboard panel, these items are not designed to be recoverable if an airbag deploys, meaning that they have to be replaced if the vehicle has not been <a href="/wiki/Total_loss" title="Total loss">written off</a> in a collision. Moreover, the dust-like particles and gases can cause irreparable cosmetic damage to the dashboard and upholstery, meaning that minor collisions that result in the deployment of airbags can be costly, even if there are no injuries and there is only minor damage to the vehicle structure. <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Regulatory_specifications">Regulatory specifications</h2>[<a href="/w/index.php?title=Airbag&action=edit&section=25" title="Edit section: Regulatory specifications">edit</a>]</div> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="United_States">United States</h3>[<a href="/w/index.php?title=Airbag&action=edit&section=26" title="Edit section: United States">edit</a>]</div> On 11 July 1984, the United States government amended <a href="/wiki/FMVSS_208" class="mw-redirect" title="FMVSS 208">Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard 208</a> (FMVSS 208) to require cars produced after 1 April 1989 to be equipped with a passive restraint for the driver.

To provide crash protection for occupants not wearing seat belts, United States airbag designs trigger much more forcefully than airbags designed to the international ECE standards used in most other countries. Recent "smart" airbag controllers can recognize if a seat belt is used, and alter the airbag cushion deployment parameters accordingly.<a href="#cite_note-139">[139]</a> In 1990, the first automotive fatality attributed to an airbag was reported.<a href="#cite_note-NHTSAAirBag-140">[140]</a> <a href="/wiki/TRW_Inc." title="TRW Inc.">TRW</a> produced the first gas-inflated airbag in 1994, with sensors and low inflation-force bags becoming common soon afterward. Dual-depth (also known as dual-stage) airbags appeared on passenger cars in 1998. By 2005, deaths related to airbags had declined, with no adult deaths and two child deaths attributed to airbags that year. However, injuries remain fairly common in collisions with airbag deployment. Serious injuries are less common, but severe or fatal injuries can occur to vehicle occupants very near an airbag or in direct contact when it deploys. Such injuries may be sustained by unconscious drivers slumped over the steering wheel, unrestrained or improperly restrained occupants who slide forward in the seat during precrash braking, and properly belted drivers sitting very close to the steering wheel. A good reason for the driver not to cross hands over the steering wheel, a rule taught to most learner drivers, but quickly forgotten by most, is that an airbag deployment while negotiating a turn may result in the driver's hand(s) being driven forcefully into his or her face, exacerbating any injuries from the airbag alone. Improvements in sensing and gas-generator technology have allowed the development of third-generation airbag systems that can adjust their deployment parameters to the size, weight, position, and restraint status of the occupant. These improvements have demonstrated a reduced injury risk factor for small adults and children, who had an increased risk of injury with first-generation airbag systems.<a href="#cite_note-141">[141]</a> One model of airbags made by the <a href="/wiki/Takata_Corporation" title="Takata Corporation">Takata Corporation</a> used <a href="/wiki/Ammonium_nitrate" title="Ammonium nitrate">ammonium nitrate</a>–based gas-generating compositions in airbag inflators instead of the more stable, but more expensive compound <a href="/wiki/Tetrazole" title="Tetrazole">tetrazole</a>.

Most of these (104) have been children.

Some modern cars include a switch to disable the front-passenger airbag, in case a child-supporting seat is used there (although not in Australia, where rear-facing child seats are prohibited in the front where an airbag is fitted). In vehicles with side airbags, it is dangerous for occupants to lean against the windows, doors, and pillars, or to place objects between themselves and the side of the vehicle.
