SECTION 9. PHYSICAL AND CHEMICAL PROPERTIES
Appearance: Lithium-ion rechargeable cells are set in a resin case.
Average Operating Voltage : 18V
SECTION 10. STABILITY AND REACTIVITY
External short-circuit, deformation by crush, high temperature (over 100°C) exposure of the battery may cause generation of heat and
ignition.
SECTION 11. TOXICOLOGICAL INFORMATION
Acute Toxicity: No information as a battery
Local Effects: No information as a battery
SECTION 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.
SECTION 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.
SECTION 14. TRANSPORT INFORMATION
• The cells in these batteries have been tested and meet the requirements for the UN Manual of Tests and Criteria, Part III, subsection
38.3.
• When a number 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 International Maritime
Dangerous Goods regulations (IMDG). For Lithium-ion batteries, the Watt-hour rating is no more than 20Wh /cell and
100Wh/ battery pack 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.
• IATA (International Air Transport Association): Dangerous Goods Regulation
Packing Instruction 965 (Lithium ion or lithium polymer cells and batteries without electronic equipment) went into effect April 1,
2016: Lithium ion cells and batteries must be offered for transport at a state of charge not exceeding 30 per cent of their rated capacity.
UN 3480, PI 965, Section IA and IB and II will be restricted to carriage on cargo aircraft. All packages must bear the Cargo Aircraft
Only label in addition to the other marks and labels required by the Regulations.
• US Hazardous Materials Regulations 49 CFR (Code of Federal Regulations) Sections 173-185 Lithium batteries and cells.
Section II requirements apply to lithium-ion cells with a Watt-hour rating not exceeding 20 Wh and lithium-ion batteries with a Watt-
hour rating not exceeding 100 Wh packed in quantities that within the allowance permitted in Section II, Table 965-11.
