Safety Data Sheet

1. Identification of the substance/preparation and of the company / undertaking

Product name: Alkaline zinc-manganese dioxide batteries

Product designation: LR6

Nominal Voltage: 1.5V

Chemical system: Zinc/ Manganese Dioxide

Designed for recharge: Yes No√

Company name: Original Power, Inc.

2133 Lawrenceville-Suwanee Road

Suite 12-311

Suwanee, GA 30024

Tel: (770) 418-1850

Fax: (770) 418-0258

2. Hazards identifications

General advice: The common known rules for handling of chemicals should be obeyed. These chemicals

are contained in a sealed steel can. For consumer use, adequate hazard warnings are

printed on both the package and the battery. Potential for exposure should not exist unless

the battery leaks, is exposed to high temperatures or is mechanically or electrically abused.

Concentrated potassium hydroxide contained is caustic. Anticipated potential leakage of

potassium hydroxide is 2-20 ml, depending on battery size. Do not eat and drink batteries.

Keep batteries away from small children.

Physical-Chemical Hazards: This preparation is not classified as dangerous according to the criteria of

directive 99/45/EEC.

Hazards to man: If battery leaking, exposure to caustic ingredients may occur. Therefore, may cause

sensitization by skin contract.

Hazards to environment: N.A..
