Section 2
SECTION 2: Hazards identification
Classification of the substance or mixture Classification according to UN-GHS Batteries are considered as articles and are as such exempted from the UN-GHS classification requirements The classification based on the hazardous substances contained in the product (electrode materials and liquid electrolyte contained in the batteries) is provided below for information purposes only Ox. Sol. 1 H271: May cause fire or explosion; strong oxidiser Eye Dam. 1 H318: Causes serious eye damage Skin Corr. 1A H314: Causes severe skin burns and eye damage STOT RE 2 H373: May cause damage to organs (Brain) through prolonged or repeated exposure Inhalation) Aquatic Acute 1 H400: Very toxic to aquatic life Aquatic Chronic 1 H410: Very toxic to aquatic life with long lasting effects
2.2 Label elements
The UN GHS labeling information is not provided in this section as batteries are articles and therefore are exempted from the UN GHS labeling requirements. Other labeling requirements apply for batteries according to EU Directive 2006/66/EC and EU Regulation 2023/1542/EU. Nevertheless the following warning must be observed: Keep out of reach of children.
Other hazards which do not result in classification
The chemicals mentioned in Section 3 are contained in a stable container and are sealed. Risk of exposure occurs only if the battery is mechanically or electrically abused or if it is ingested (see Safety precautions in Section VII). No adverse effects expected in case of swallowing an intact silver battery (small diameter and low voltage). Swallowing a damaged battery leads to chemical burns and perforation of soft tissues. Severe burns can occur within 2 hours of ingestion. In case of ingestion, seek medical attention immediately.
