Vepar Density : Hydrogen(Air=1) - 0.069
Electrolyte(Air=1) - 3.4 At STP
Solubility in Water
: Electrolyte - 100% Soluble
SECTION 10: Stability and reactivity
10.1. Chemical stability
Stable
10.2. Possibility of hazardous reactions
Stable
10.3. Conditions to avoid
High temperatures - cases decompose at < 320
Avoid overcharging and smoking, or sparks near battery surface and rapid overcharge
10.4. Incompatible materials
Spark, Open flames, Keep battery case away from strong oxidizers.
10.5. Hazardous decomposition products
An explosive hydrogen/oxygen mixture within the battery may occur during charging. Combustion
can produce carbon dioxide(CO2) and carbon monoxide(CO). Molten metals produce fumes and/or vapor that may be toxic or
repiratory irritants.
10.6. Hazardous Polymerization
Will Not Occur (Do not overcharge)
SECTION 11: Toxicological information
11.1. Information on toxicological effects
Information on the likely routes of exposure: The primary routes of exposure to lead are ingestion or inhalation of dust and fumes.
ACUTE :
INGESTION/INHALAATION : Exposure to lead and its compounds may cause headache, narsea, vomiting, abdominal spasms, fatigue, sleep
disturbances, weight loss, anemia, and pain in the legs, arms and joints. Kidney damage, as well as anemia, can occur from acute exposure.
CHRONIC :
INHALATION/INGESTION : Prolonged exposure to lead and its compounds may produce many of the symptoms of shour-term exposure and may
also cause central nervous system damage, gastrointestinal disturbances, anemia, and wrist drop. Symptoms of central nervous system
SECTION 12: Ecological information
12.1. Aquatic and terrestrial ecotoxicity
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.
12.2. Persistence and degradability
Lead may occur as sorbed ions or surface coatings on sediment mineral particles or may be carried in colloidal particles in surface water.
12.3. Bioaccumulative potential
Lead(when in the dissolved phase) is bioaccumulated by plants and animals, both aquatic and terrestrial.
12.4. Mobility in soil
Most lead is strongly retained in soil, resulting in little mobility. Lead may be immobilized by ion exchange with hydrous
oxides or clays or by chelation with humic or fulvic acids in the soil
SECTION 13: Disposal considerations
13.1. Waste treatment methods
Lead-acid batteries are completely recyclable. Return whol scrap batteries to distributor, manufacturer or lead smelter for recycling. For information
on returning batteries to ATLASBX Battery Company for recycling call 82-42-620-4332. For neutralized spills, place residue in acid-resistant
containers with sorbent material, sand or earth and dispose of in accordance with local, state and federal regulations for acid and lead compounds.
Contact local and/or state environmental officials regarding disposal information.
