HAZARDS IDENTIFICATION ※ This is a product that fulfills a certain function in solid state with specific shape without discharging any chemical substance in its use and has no obligation to write (M)SDS. Since this document contains the precautions for safe handling related to its materials or chemical substances consisting of this product, please note that these overall information is irrelevant to this product. 2.1 Classification of the substance or mixture 2.1.1. Classification according to Regulation (EC) No. 1272/2008 [CLP] and OSHA 29 CFR 1910.1200 : Not classified 2.1.2 Additional information: Classification of the substance or mixture. Preparation Hazards and Classification: The product is a Lithium ion cell or battery and is therefore PAGE 2 classified as an article and is not hazardous when used according to the recommendations of the manufacturer. The hazard is associated with the contents of the cell or battery. Under recommended use conditions, the electrode materials and liquid electrolyte are non-reactive provided that the cell or battery integrity remains and the seals remain intact. The potential for exposure should not exist unless the cell or battery leaks, is exposed to high temperatures or is mechanically, electrically or physically abused/damaged. If the cell or battery is compromised and starts to leak, based upon the battery ingredients, the contents are classified as Hazardous Hazardous Materials Information Label (HMIS) Health: Not available Flammability: Not available Physical Hazard: Not available NFPA Hazard Ratings Health: Not available Flammability: Not available Reactivity: Not available 2.2 Label elements Hazard pictograms : Not applicable Signal word : Not applicable Hazard statement : Not applicable Precautionary statements: Not applicable Supplemental Hazard information (EU) : Not applicable 2.3 Other hazards : Appearance, Color and Odor: Solid object with no odor. Primary Routes(s) of Exposure: These chemicals are contained in a sealed enclosure. Risk of exposure occurs only if the cell or pack is mechanically, thermally, electrically or physically abused to the point of compromising the enclosure. If this occurs, exposure to the electrolyte solution contained within can occur by inhalation, ingestion, eye contact and skin contact. Potential Health Effect(s): Acute (short term): see Section 8 for exposure controls. In the event that this cell or pack has been ruptured, the electrolyte solution contained within the cell would be corrosive and can cause burns to skin and eyes. Inhalation: Inhalation of materials from a sealed cell is not an expected route of exposure. Vapors or mists from a ruptured cell may cause respiratory irritation. Ingestion: Swallowing of materials from a sealed cell is not an expected route of exposure. Swallowing the contents of an open cell can cause serious chemical burns to mouth, esophagus, and gastrointestinal tract. Skin: Contact between the cell and skin will not cause any harm. Skin contact with the contents of an open cell can cause severe irritation or burns to the skin. Eye: Contact between the cell and the eye will not cause any harm. Eye contact with the contents of an open cell can cause severe irritation or burns to the eye. CHRONIC (long term): see Section 11 for additional toxicological data. Interactions with other chemicals: Immersion in high conductivity liquids may cause corrosion and breaching of the cell or battery enclosure. The electrolyte solution inside of the cells may react with alkaline PAGE 3 (basic) materials and present a flammability hazard. Potential Environmental Effects: Not Available. 3.
