CONTINUED: SECTION 3. COMPOSITION, INFORMATION OR INGREDIENTS
For information purposes:
(*) Main ingredients: Lithium hexafluorophosphate, organic carbonates
Because of the cell structure the dangerous ingredients will not be available if used properly. During charge process a lithium graphite
intercalation phase is formed.
Mercury content:
Hg < 0.1mg/kg
Cadmium content:
Cd < 1mg/kg
Lead content:
Pb< 10mg/kg
Wh rating:
Under 100Wh
Anode (negative electrode):
Based on intercalation graphite
Cathode (positive electrode):
Based on lithiated metal oxide (Cobalt, Nickel, Manganese)
SECTION 4. FIRST AID MEASURE
General information:
The following first aid measures are required only in case of exposure to interior battery components
after damage of the external battery casing.
Undamaged, closed cells do not represent a danger to the health.
After inhalation:
Ensure of fresh air. Consult a physician.
After contact with skin:
In case of contact with skin wash off immediately with plenty of water. Consult a physician.
After contact with eyes:
Rinse immediately with plenty of water, also under the eyelids, for at least 15 minutes. Seek medical
treatment by eye specialist
After ingestion:
Drink plenty of water. Call a physician immediately.
SECTION 5. FIRE FIGHTING MEASURES
Suitable extinguishing
media:
Cold water and dry powder in large amount are applicable.
Use metal fire extinction powder or dry sand if only few cells are involved.
Special hazards arising from
the chemical:
May form hydrofluoric acid if electrolyte comes into contact with water.
In case of fire, the formation of the following flue gases cannot be excluded:
Hydrogen fluoride (HF), Carbon monoxide and carbon dioxide.
Protective equipment and
precautions for firefighters:
Wear self-contained breathing apparatus and protective suit.
Additional information:
If possible, remove cell (s) from firefighting area. If heated above 125°C, cell (s) can explode/vent. Cell
is not flammable but internal organic material will burn if the cell is incinerated.
SECTION 6. ACCIDENTAL RELEASE MEASURES
Personal precautions:
Use personal protective clothing.
Avoid contact with skin, eyes and clothing.
Avoid breathing fume and gas.
Environmental precautions:
Do not discharge into the drains/surface waters/groundwater.
Methods for cleaning up/taking up
Take up mechanically and send for disposal.
