Precautionary statements

Disposal P501 Dispose of contents/container to an approved waste disposal plant. IMPORTANT NOTE(S) Used battery may also contain lead contaminated acid. Lead sulfate is often seen in the plates/electrodes of car batteries, as it is formed when the battery is discharged. When the battery is recharged, then the lead sulfate is transformed back to metallic lead and sulfuric acid on the negative terminal or lead dioxide and sulfuric acid on the positive terminal. Lead sulfate is toxic by inhalation, ingestion and skin contact. It is classified as a known or presumed human reproductive or developmental toxicant and causes damage to organs. Lead and lead sulphate is classified as very toxic to aquatic life with long lasting effects.
