My left wrist was burned badly when the air bags deployed after an accident I was involved in. Is whatever is put in the air bag to burn a person's skin necessary? Is there another way?

Vehicle was in a serious accident and airbags did not deploy. Vehicle was hit head on while traveling at a speed of 45 MPH.
The consumers vehicle was involved in a head-on collision traveling approximately 55 MPH. Neither the driver nor the passenger front air bags deployed.
