9) PHYSICAL AND CHEMICAL PROPERTIES
Appearance: Lithium-ion polymer rechargeable cells are set in a resin case.
10) STABILITY AND REACTIVITY
External short-circuit, deformation by crush, high temperature (over 100
o
C) exposure of a battery may cause generation of heat and
ignition.
11) TOXICOLOGICAL INFORMATION
Acute toxicity: No information as a battery
Local effects: No information as a battery
12) ECOLOGICAL INFORMATION
If battery is buried in the ground, corrosion may occur on the outer plastic case of battery and the electrolyte may leak out. There is no
information on environmental influence.
13) DISPOSAL CONSIDERATIONS
When battery is disposed, isolate positive (+) and negative (-) terminals of the battery to avoid those terminals from touching each other.
Batteries may be short-circuited when piled up or mixed with the other batteries. Dispose in accordance with applicable federal, state
and local regulations.
14) TRANSPORT INFORMATION
When large amount of batteries are transported by ship, vehicle and railroad, avoid high temperature and dew condensation.
Avoid transportation which may cause damage of package.
Lithium ion batteries are not subject to dangerous goods regulation for the purpose of transportation by the U.S. Department of
Transportation (DOT), the International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO), The International Air Transport Association (IATA) or the
International Maritime Dangerous Goods regulations (IMDG). For Lithium ion batteries, the Watt-hour rating is no more than 20Wh/cell
and 100Wh/battery pack and the equivalent Lithium content is no more than 1.5 grams/cell and no more than 8.0 grams/battey pack. The
watt hour ratings and equivalent Lithium content in the battery means they can be treated as "non-dangerous goods" by the United
Nations Recommendations on the Transport of Dangerous Goods/Special Provision 188, provided that the products are prevented from
being short-circuited with each other and are packaged in an appropriate condition which satisfies Packing Group II performance level.
The shipment complies with the Packing Instruction 965 Part 1 under IATA and so the cargo can be exempted from Dangerous Goods
Regulations
Each cell or battery is of the type proven to meet the requirements of each test in the UN Manual of Tests and Criteria Part III,
subsection 38.3
Each package must be capable of withstanding a 1.2m drop test in any orientation without:
- damage to cells or batteries contained therein;
- shifting of contents so as to allow battery to battery (or cell to cell) contact;
- release of contents.
