Preparation hazards and 

classification 

Not dangerous with normal use. Do not dismantle, open or shred the Li-ion Power Battery Pack ingredients contained within or their ingredients products could be harmful. 

Apperance, 

Color, and Odor 

Solid object with no odor, no color. 

Primary Route(s) of Exposure 

These chemicals are contained in a sealed enclosure. Risk of exposure occurs only if the cell is mechanically, thermally or electrically abused to the point of compromising the enclosure. If this occurs, exposure to the electrolyte solution contained within can occur by Inhalation, Ingestion, Eye contact and Skin contact 

Potential Health Effects: 

ACUTE (short term): see Section 8 for exposure controls In the event that this battery has been ruptured, the electrolyte solution contained within the battery would be corrosive and can cause burns.  

Inhalation: Inhalation of materials from a sealed battery is not an expected route of exposure. Vapors or mists from a ruptured battery may cause respiratory irritation. Ingestion: Swallowing of materials from a sealed battery is not an expected route of exposure. Swallowing the contents of an open battery can cause serious chemical burns of mouth, esophagus, and gastrointestinal tract.   

Skin: Contact between the battery and skin will not cause any harm. Skin contact with contents of an open battery can cause severe irritation or burns to the skin. Eye: Contact between the battery and the eye will not cause any harm. Eye contact with contents of an open battery can cause severe irritation or burns to the eye. CHRONIC 

(long term): see Section 11 for additional toxicological data

Inhalation 

If contents of an opened battery are inhaled, remove source of contamination or move victim to fresh air. Obtain medical advice. 

Skin contact 

If skin contact with contents of an open battery occurs, as quickly as possible remove contaminated clothing, shoes and leather goods. Immediately flush with lukewarm, gently flowing water for at least 30 minutes. If irritation or pain persists, seek medical attention. 

Completely decontaminate clothing, shoes and leather goods before reuse or discard. 

Eye contact 

If eye contact with contents of an open battery occurs, immediately flush the contaminated eye(s) with lukewarm, gently flowing water for at least 30 minutes while holding the eyelids open. Neutral saline solution may be used as soon as it is available. If necessary, continue flushing during transport to emergency care facility. Take care not to rinse contaminated water into the unaffected eye or onto face. Quickly transport victim to an emergency care facility. 

Ingestion 

If ingestion of contents of an open battery occurs, never give anything by mouth if victim is rapidly losing consciousness, or is unconscious or convulsing. Have victim rinse mouth thoroughly with water. DO NOT INDUCE VOMITING. Have victim drink 60 to 240 mL (2-8 oz.) of water. If vomiting occurs naturally, have victim lean forward to reduce risk of aspiration. Have victim rinse mouth with water again. Quickly transport victim to an emergency care facility.  

Flammable 

Properties   

In the event that this battery has been ruptured, the electrolyte solution contain within the battery would be flammable. Like any sealed container, battery cells may rupture when exposed to excessive heat; this could result in the release of flammable or corrosive materials.   

Suitable extinguishing 

Media  

Use extinguishing media suitable for the materials that are burning.

Data  

Sensitivity to Mechanical Impact: This may result in rupture in extreme cases 

Sensitivity to Static Discharge: Not Applicable  

Specific Hazards arising from the chemical  

Fires involving Li-ion Power Battery Pack are controlled with water. When water is used, however, hydrogen gas may evolve. In a confined space, hydrogen gas can form an explosive mixture. In this situation, smothering agents are recommended to extinguish the fire  

Protective Equipment and precautions for firefighters  

As for any fire, evacuate the area and fight the fire from a safe distance. Wear a pressure-demand, self-contained breathing apparatus and full protective gear. Fight fire from a protected location or a safe distance. Use NIOSH/MSHA approved full-face self-contained breathing apparatus (SCBA) with full protective gear. 

NFPA  

Health: 0 Flammability: 0 Instability: 0  

Personal Precautions, protective equipment, and emergency procedures 

Restrict access to area until completion of clean-up. Do not touch the spilled material. Wear adequate personal protective equipment as indicated in Section 

8. 

Environmental Precautions 

Prevent material from contaminating soil and from entering sewers or waterways. 

Methods and materials for Containment  

Stop the leak if safe to do so. Contain the spilled liquid with dry sand or earth. Clean up spills immediately. 

Methods and materials for cleaning up 

Absorb spilled material with an inert absorbent (dry sand or earth). Scoop contaminated absorbent into an acceptable waste container. Collect all contaminated absorbent and dispose of according to directions in Section 13. Scrub the area with detergent and water; collect all contaminated wash water for proper 

disposal. 

Handling 

Don’t handle Li-ion Power Battery Pack with metalwork. Do not open, dissemble, crush or burn battery. Ensure good ventilation/ exhaustion at the workplace. 

Prevent formation of dust. 

Information about protection against explosions and fires: Keep ignition sources away- Do not smoke. 

Storage 

If the Li-ion Power Battery Pack is subject to storage for such a long term as more than 3 months, it is recommended to recharge the Li-ion Power Battery Pack periodically. 

3 months: -10°C~+40°C, 45 to 85%RH 

And recommended at 0°C~+35°C for long period storage. 

The capacity recovery rate in the delivery state (50% capacity of fully charged) after storage is assumed to be 80% or more. 

Do not store Li-ion Power Battery Pack haphazardly in a box or drawer where they may short-circuit each other or be short-circuited by other metal objects. 

Keep out of reach of children. 

Do not expose Li-ion Power Battery Pack to heat or fire. Avoid storage in direct sunlight. 

Do not store together with oxidizing and acidic materials. 

Engineering Controls 

Use local exhaust ventilation or other engineering controls to control sources of dust, mist, fumes and vapor. 

Keep away from heat and open flame. Store in a cool, dry place. 

Personal Protective Equipment 

Respiratory Protection: Not necessary under normal conditions. 

Skin and body Protection: Not necessary under normal conditions, Wear neoprene or nitrile rubber gloves if handling an open or leaking battery. Hand protection: Wear neoprene or natural rubber material gloves if handling an open or leaking battery. Eye Protection: Not necessary under normal conditions, Wear safety glasses if handling an open or leaking battery. 

Other Protective Equipment  

Have a safety shower and eye wash fountain readily available in the immediate work area. 

Hygiene Measures 

Do not eat, drink, or smoke in work area. Maintain good housekeeping.
