<button mat-flat-button color="primary" (click)="closeAllPanels()"><b>Close Panels</b></button>

<mat-accordion [multi]="true"
#accordion="matAccordion"

    <mat-expansion-panel-header>
        <b>Title</b>
    </mat-expansion-panel-header>
    <p>Description</p>

1- You should remove the mat-accordion to enable multiple expanded panels.

2- Use the expanded parameter to change multiple states at the same time.

Here is a running example.

EDIT

From version 6.0.0-beta-0 you can use multi parameter and the openAll and closeAll functions :

1- Change the mat-accordion element to set the muti to true and get the MatAccordionComponent instance :

<mat-accordion #accordion="matAccordion" [multi]="true">

2- Then use the openAll and closeAll functions to open or close all panels :

<button (click)="accordion.openAll()">Expand All </button>
<button (click)="accordion.closeAll()">Collapse All </button>

Here is a running example.

To use a toggle button (instead of 2 buttons like ibenjelloun's answer), you can use this in the template:

<button (click)="toggleExpandState()">{{ allExpandState ? "Collapse All" : "Expand All" }}</button>

and add this in the component:

toggleExpandState() { this.allExpandState = !this.allExpandState; }

This introduces a problem where if you expand all the panels manually, the button will still say "Expand All" and vice versa, so you could add a listener when expanding/collapsing a single panel to check if all the panels are expanded or collapsed, and change the variable allExpandState accordingly.

Also, you don't have to remove the mat-accordian, just add multi="true" to it.
