1. HEALTH HAZARD INFORMATION

Effects of Overexposure

Eye Effects:

In the case of a fire or cell rupture, the electrolyte solution inside the battery is extremely corrosive

to eye tissues. May result in permanent blindness. Contact with the nickel oxide may cause minor

irritation.

Skin Effects: Contact with electrolyte solution inside battery may cause serious burns to skin tissues. Contact

with nickel compounds may cause skin sensitization, resulting in chronic eczema or nickel itch.

Ingestion: Ingestion of electrolyte solution causes damage to throat area and gastro / respiratory tract.

Ingestion of nickel compound causes nausea and intestinal disorders.

Inhalation: No exposure possible except in the case of fire or abuse. Effects of inhalation of metallic

compounds vary from mild irritation of nasal mucous membranes to damage of lung tissues

proper. Inhalation may cause dry throat, cough, headache, vomiting, chest pain

and chills.

Carcinogenicity: NIOSH recommends that nickel be treated as an occupational carcinogens.

2. EMERGENCY FIRST AID

Battery Electrolyte

Eye Contact: Flush with plenty of water for at least 15 minutes if abuse causes safety vents to activate. Get

immediate medical attention.

Skin Contact: Remove contaminated clothing and flush affected areas with plenty of water for at least 20

minutes. Wash with soap and water.

Ingestion: Do not induce vomiting. Dilute by giving water. If available, give several glasses of milk. Get

immediate medical attention. Do not give anything by mouth to an unconscious person.

Inhalation: Remove to fresh air. Give oxygen or artificial respiration, if needed. Get immediate medical

attention.

3. SPECIAL PROTECTION INFORMATION Respiratory Protection: Use NIOSH/MSHA approved respirator if cell is broken open during a fire to maintain exposure levels below the TWA for metal-based compounds. Eye Protection: Use splash goggles or face shield if cell activates due to abuse. Hand Protection: If exposure to electrolyte solution, or dried salts is likely, use any water insoluble non-permeable glove, i.e., synthetic rubber. DO NOT use leather or wool.
