Inhalation
l
Remove to fresh air and ventilate the contaminated area.
l
Give oxygen or artificial respiration if needed.
Fire fighting measures
Fire and explosion hazard
The battery can leak and/or spout vaporized or decomposed and combustible electrolyte fumes in case of
exposure above 70 °C (158 °F) resulting from inappropriate use or the environment.
Cells or batteries may flame or leak potentially hazardous organic vapors if exposed to excessive heat or
fire. Fire, excessive heat, or over voltage conditions may produce hazardous decomposition products.
Damaged or opened cells or batteries can result in rapid heating and the release of flammable vapors.
Vapors may be heavier than air and may travel along the ground or be moved by ventilation to an ignition
source and flash back
Fire, excessive heat, or over voltage conditions may produce hazardous decomposition products.
Use a positive pressure self-contained breathing apparatus if batteries are involved in a fire. Full protective
clothing is necessary. During water application, caution is advised as burning pieces of flammable particles
may be ejected from the fire.
Extinguishing media
Suitable:
CO2
Dry chemical or foam extinguishers
Not to be used:
Type D extinguishers
Special exposure hazards
Following cell overheating due to external source or due to improper use, electrolyte leakage or battery
container rupture may occur and release inner component/material in the environment.
Eye contact:
The electrolyte solution contained in the battery is irritant to ocular tissues.
Skin contact:
The electrolyte solution contained in the battery causes skin irritation.
Ingestion:
The ingestion of electrolyte solution causes tissue damage to throat and
gastro/respiratory tract.
Inhalation:
Contents of a leaking or ruptured battery can cause respiratory tract, mucus,
membrane irritation and edema.
Special protective equipment
Use self-contained breathing apparatus to avoid breathing irritant fumes.
Wear protective clothing and avoid body contact with electrolyte solution.
Accidental release measures
The material contained within the batteries would only be expelled under abusive conditions.
