The battery products referenced in this document are consumer products. Under OSHA regulations,

batteries are considered “articles” and are not subject to the OSHA Hazard Communication Standard

SDS requirements that apply for “hazardous chemicals in the workplace.” Additionally, batteries are

considered “articles” under the Global Harmonized System and are exempted from the GHS labeling

and SDS classification criteria. This document is provided as service in response to requests for

information on battery use, safety and regulatory compliance.

2. Hazards Identification

CAUTION: Batteries may explode or leak, and cause burn injury, if recharged, disposed of in fire, mixed

with a different battery type, inserted backwards or disassembled. Replace all used batteries at the

same time. Do not carry batteries loose in your pocket or purse. Do not remove the battery label. Keep

small batteries (i.e., AAA) away from children. If swallowed, consult a physician at once.

The common known rules for handling of chemicals need to be obeyed. These chemicals are contained

in a sealed steel can. For consumer use, adequate hazard warnings are printed on both the package

and the battery. Potential for exposure should not exist unless the battery leaks, is exposed to high

temperatures or is mechanically or electrically abused. Concentrated potassium hydroxide contained is

caustic. Anticipated potential leakage of potassium hydroxide is 2-20 ml, depending on battery size. Do

not eat and drink batteries.

Physical-Chemical Hazards: This preparation is not classified as dangerous according to the criteria of

directive 99/45/EEC.

Hazards to man: If battery leaking, exposure to caustic ingredients may occur. Therefore, may cause

sensitization by skin contract.

Hazards to environment: N.A..
