Safety Data Sheet (SDS)

10.0 Stability and Reactivity
This section describes the reactivity hazards of the chemical and the chemical stability information.
Reactivity
The product is stable under normal conditions. If battery leakage occurs, the internal materials may
react with strong oxidizers, strong acids, strong bases, etc.
Chemical stability
The product is stable under normal conditions.
Conditions to Avoid
Incompatible materials, any sources of ignition or heat (e.g., open flames, smoking, hot surfaces,
excess heat), freezing conditions, mechanical damage, or electrical overcharge or overdischarge.
Incompatibilities
Conductive materials, water, seawater, oxidizing agents, strong acids, strong bases.
Hazardous Decomposition
Products
In case of fire or high temperature, metal oxides and irritating/harmful fumes/smoke may be
generated.
11.0 Toxicological Information
No health effects are expected under normal use. Inhalation, skin contact, and eye contact are possible when the battery is opened.
• Exposure to internal contents, the corrosive fumes will be very irritating to skin, eyes, and mucous membranes.
• Long-term exposure to internal contents can cause lung damage (pulmonary fibrosis).
• Prolonged or repeated exposure to internal contents may cause damage to organs (liver).
• If battery electrolyte is swallowed, it may cause severe chemical burns to mouth, esophagus, and gastrointestinal system.
• If battery is broken, inhalation of fumes/dust may cause respiratory irritation, cough, shortness of breath, or chemical burns.
12.0 Ecological Information
No ecological effects are expected under normal use. Do not allow product to be released to the environment without proper treatment.
Internal contents of battery may cause long lasting harmful effects to aquatic life. At the end of useful life, observe all Lithium-Ion
battery disposal regulations (See section 13).
13.0 Disposal Considerations
• Do not discard with general waste.
• Keep away from sunlight, water, rain, and snow.
• Batteries should be fully discharged prior to disposal.
• Batteries should be considered hazardous waste.
• Dispose of the batteries in accordance with approved local, state, and federal requirements.
• The batteries must be neutralized through an approved secondary treatment facility prior to disposal as a hazardous waste.
Recycling of battery can be done in an authorized facility, through a licensed waste carrier.
