SECTION 12: ECOLOGICAL INFORMATION Lead and its compounds can result in a threat if released into the environment. In most surface water and groundwater, lead forms compounds with anions such as hydroxides, carbonates, sulfates, and phosphates, and precipitates out of the water column. Lead may occur as sorbed ions or surface coatings on sediment mineral particles or may be carried in colloidal particles in surface water. Most lead is strongly retained in soil, resulting in little mobility.

SECTION 15: REGULATORY INFORMATION EU Regulation: In accordance with EU2006/66/EC Battery Directive, VRLA batteries should present crossed-out wheeled bin symbol of lead together with the ISO recycling symbol. Does not contain any mercury, Hg, (<0.0005%) or cadmium, Cd, (<0.002%). SECTION 16: OTHER INFORMATION Products such as Batteries are not in the scope of regulation which requires the publication of an EU Safety Data Sheet (91/155/EEC).
