Section 11: TOXICOLOGICAL INFORMATION
ACUTE TOXICITY DATA: Lead/lead compounds: No data is available.
Sulfuric Acid: LD50 oral rat: 2140 mg/kg
LD50 inhalation: 510 mg/m
3
/2 hour
CARCINOGENICITY: The National Toxicological Program (NTP) and The International Agency for Research
on Cancer (IARC) have classified “strong inorganic acid mist containing sulfuric acid” as a Category 1
carcinogen, a substance that is carcinogenic to humans. The ACGIH has classified “strong inorganic acid mist
containing sulfuric acid” as an A2 carcinogen (suspected human carcinogen). These classifications do not apply
to liquid forms of sulfuric acid or sulfuric acid solutions contained within a battery. Inorganic acid mist (sulfuric
acid mist) is not generated under normal use of this product. Misuse of the product, such as overcharging, may
result in the generation of sulfuric acid mist.
The NTP and the IARC have classified lead as an A3 carcinogen (animal carcinogen). While the agent is
carcinogenic in experimental animals at relatively high doses, the agent is unlikely to cause cancer in humans
except under uncommonly high levels of exposure. For further information, see the ACGIH’s pamphlet, 1996
Threshold Limit Values and Biological Exposure Indices.
REPRODUCTIVE TOXICITY: Lead is known to cause birth defects in human and animals.
TERATOGENICITY: Lead is known to cause birth defects in human and animals.
MUTAGENICITY: Lead has been found to be mutagenic.
SYNERGISTIC EFFECTS: Other heavy metals (arsenic, cadmium, mercury) may cause additive toxic effects.
Section 12: ECOLOGICAL INFORMATION
EFFECTS OF MATERIALS ON PLANTS OR ANIMALS: Lead and its compounds may cause an adverse
effect to animals and plants that come into contact with them.
EFFECTS ON AQUATIC LIFE: Lead and its compounds may cause an adverse effect to animals and plants in
an aquatic environment that come into contact with them.
Section 13: DISPOSAL
Battery Electrolyte (Acid): Neutralize as above for a spill, collect residue, and place in a drum or suitable
container. Dispose of as a hazardous waste.
DO NOT FLUSH LEAD-CONTAMINATED ACID INTO SEWER.
Batteries: Send to lead smelter for reclamation following applicable Canadian, provincial, and local regulations.
