10.STABILITY AND REACTIVITY
Stability : Stable under normal use
Hazardous reactions occurring under specific conditions
By misuse of a battery cell or the like, oxygen or hydrogen accumulates in the cell and the internal
pressure rises. These gases may be emitted through the gas release vent. When fire is near, these gases
may take
fire.
When a battery cell is heated strongly by the surrounding fire, acrid or harmful fume may be emitted.
Conditions to avoid : Direct sunlight, high temperature and high humidity
Materials to avoid : Conductive materials, water, seawater, strong oxidizers and strong acids
Hazardous decomposition products: Acrid or harmful fume is emitted during fire.
