Li-ion Battery

SECTION 2: Hazards identification

2.1 Classification of the substance or mixture

dismantle、open Not dangerous with normal use. Do not or shred battery. The hazards indicated are for a ruptured battery. Exposure to the ingredients contained within or their ingredients products could be harmful.

Appearance/Odor

Invasion route Solid object with no odor, no color. ACUTE: see Section 8 for exposure controls In the event that this battery has been ruptured, the electrolyte solution contained within the battery would be corrosive and can cause burns. Skin contact: The leakage of the electrolyte may cause sore and stimulation on the skin Eye contact: The steam of the electrolyte may stimulate eyes. Especially, substance that may cause inflammation of the eyes is contained Inhalation: Inhalation of materials from a sealed battery is not an expected route of exposure. Vapors or mists from a ruptured battery may cause respiratory irritation. Ingestion: Swallowing is not anticipated due to the battery size. The ingestion of the electrolyte causes tissue damage to throat

Health hazards

For the battery or cell, chemical materials are stored in a sealed metal or metal laminated plastic case, which designed to withstand temperatures and pressures encountered during normal use. As a result, during normal use, there is no physical danger of ignition, explosion or leakage of hazardous materials. However, if exposed to a fire, added mechanical shocks or decomposed, these improper handlings would cause the leakage of electrolyte. Moreover, if heated strongly by the surrounding fire, acrid gas may be emitted

Environmental hazards

Electrolyte leakage or battery container rupture may lead to the leakage of inner Burn & burst component into the environment Do not dispose of battery in fire--may explode. Do not short-circuit the battery— danger may cause fire
