3. Hazards identifications

General advice: The common known rules for handling of chemicals should 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 the electrolyte is 2-20 ml, depending on battery size. Do not eat and

Drink batteries. Keep batteries away from small children.

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...

4. First-aid measures:

Inhalation:

In case of excessive in halation due to leaking batteries remove to fresh air. Obtain

medial advice.

Skin Contact: If exposed to a leaking battery, remove contaminated clothing. Wash exposed

areas

with plenty of water and soap. IF irritation occurs, consult a physician.

Eye contact: Not anticipated due to size of batteries. Choking may occur with the smaller size

batteries. If exposed to a leaking battery, rinse mouth and surrounding areas with running water

for at least 15minutes.

Give plenty of water to drink. Do not induce vomiting. Obtain medical advice.

Suitable extinguishing media: Carbon dioxide, foam, dry chemical powder. Extinguishing media not to be used: Never use a direct water jet. Exposure hazards from combustion products: In case of fire, carbon monoxide and other toxic organic substances will be generated. Do not inhale fumes and smoke. Personal protective equipments: Wear full protective clothing. Use self-contained breathing apparatus. 6. Accidental release measures Personal precautions: Notify safety personnel of large spills.

10. Stability and Reactivity Thermal decomposition: batteries may burst and release hazardous decomposition products when exposed to fire. Substances to avoid: Strong Oxidation agents. Hazardous reactions: Contents incompatible with strong oxidizing agents. Hazardous decomposition products: Thermal degradation may produce hazardous fumes of zinc and manganese; hydrogen gas; caustic vapors of potassium hydroxide and other toxic byproducts 11.
