2.HAZARDS IDENTIFICATION

For the battery cell, chemical materials are stored in a hermetically sealed metal case, designed to

withstand temperatures and pressures encountered during normal use. As a result, during normal use,

there is no physical danger of ignition or explosion and chemical danger of hazardous materials' leakage.

However, if exposed to a fire, added mechanical shocks, decomposed, added electric stress by misuse,

the gas release vent will be operated. The battery cell case will be breached at the extreme. Hazardous

materials may be released.

Moreover, if heated strongly by the surrounding fire, acrid or harmful fume may be emitted.

・Most important hazard and effects

Human health effects:

Inhalation: The electrolyte inhalation affects the respiratory tract membrane and the lugs. Cadmium

fume may cause a cough, chest pain and dyspnea. Bronchitis and pneumonia will be

occurred. Probably, it is carcinogen.

Skin contact: The electrolyte skin contact affects the skin seriously and may cause dermatitis.

Eye contact: The electrolyte leaked from the battery cell is strong alkali. When it goes into an eye, the

cornea may be affected and it may lead to blindness.

Ingestion: The electrolyte ingestion irritates the mouth and the throat seriously results in vomiting,

nausea, hematemesis, stomach pains and diarrhea.

Environmental effects:

Since a battery cell remains in the environment, do not throw out it into the environment.

・Specific hazards：

As previously described.
