SECTION 10: STABILITY AND REACTIVITY
INCOMPATIBLE MATERIALS:
Water, heat and strong acids.
DECOMPOSITION PRODUCTS MAY INCLUDE:
Hydrogen Fluoride, Phosphorus Oxides, Carbon Monoxide, Carbon Dioxide, Lithium Hydroxide, Manganese Oxides, Aluminum
Oxide, possible fluoro‐compounds, Carbon soot.
CONDITIONS TO AVOID:
Do not crush, puncture, incinerate, immerse in water or heat over 80°C. Steel casing slowly dissolves in strong mineral acids.
POLYMERIZATION:
Hazardous polymerization will not occur. Spontaneous decomposition will not occur at normal temperature.
CHEMICAL STABILITY:
This product is stable.
REACTIVITY:
Hazardous polymerization will not occur. Spontaneous decomposition will not occur at normal temperature.
SECTION 11: TOXICOLOGY INFORMATION
LIKELY ROUTES OF EXPOSURE: Inhalation, Eye and Skin contact
There will be no contact with toxically ingredients of the battery, in case of accidental release, eye contact, skin contact, skin
absorption, inhalation only if burned. Hydrofluoric acid is extremely corrosive. Contact with hydrogen fluoride fumes is to be
avoided. Permissible exposure limit is 3ppm. In case of contact with hydrogen fluoride fumes, immediately leave the area and
seek first aid and emergency medical attention. Symptoms may have delayed onset. Fluoride ions penetrate skin readily causing
destruction of deep tissue layers even bone. Fluoride interferes with nerve impulse conduction causing severe pain or absence of
sensations. Immediately flush eyes or skin with water for at least 20 minutes to neutralize the acidity and remove some fluoride.
Remove and destroy all contaminated clothing and permeable personal possessions. Before re‐use, impermeable possessions
should be soaked in benzalkonium chloride after washing. Following flushing of the affected areas, an iced aqueous solution of
benzalkonium chloride or 2.5% calcium gluconate gel should be applied to react with the fluoride ion. Compresses and wraps may
be used for areas where immersion is not practical.
