Lead compounds: Temperatures above the melting point are likely to produce toxic metal fume,
vapor, or dust; contact with strong acid or base or presence of nascent hydrogen may generate
highly toxic arsine gas.
Hazardous Polymerization
Will not occur.
11. TOXICOLOGICAL INFORMATION
NOTE: Under normal conditions of use, this product does not present a health hazard. The following
information is provided for organic electrolyte and lead exposure that may occur due to container breakage
or under extreme conditions such as fire.
Organic electrolyte – reacts with moisture/water to produce hydrofluoric acid in trace quantities.
Hydrofluoric acid is extremely corrosive and toxic. In severe exposures it acts as a systemic poison and causes
severe burns. The reaction may be delayed. Any contact with this material, even minor, requires immediate
medical attention.
ROUTES AND METHODS OF ENTRY
Inhalation
EXPOSURE IS NOT EXPECTED FOR PRODUCT UNDER NORMAL CONDITIONS OF
USE.
Sulfuric Acid: Breathing of sulfuric acid vapors or mists may cause severe respiratory
irritation.
Lead Compounds: Inhalation of lead dust or fumes may cause irritation of upper
respiratory tract and lungs.
Skin Contact
EXPOSURE IS NOT EXPECTED FOR PRODUCT UNDER NORMAL CONDITIONS OF
USE.
Sulfuric Acid: Severe irritation, burns and ulceration.
Lead Compounds: Not absorbed through the skin.
Skin Absorption
EXPOSURE IS NOT EXPECTED FOR PRODUCT UNDER NORMAL CONDITIONS OF
USE.
In the event of overcharging or damage to the unit, exposure to organic electrolyte
solution/mist is possible. Extreme exposures to the organic electrolyte can be
absorbed through the skin.
Eye Contact
EXPOSURE IS NOT EXPECTED FOR PRODUCT UNDER NORMAL CONDITIONS OF
USE.
Sulfuric Acid: Severe irritation, burns, cornea damage, and blindness.
Lead Compounds: May cause eye irritation.
Ingestion
EXPOSURE IS NOT EXPECTED FOR PRODUCT UNDER NORMAL CONDITIONS OF
USE.
Sulfuric Acid: May cause severe irritation of mouth, throat, esophagus and stomach.
Lead Compounds: Acute ingestion may cause abdominal pain, nausea, vomiting,
diarrhea and severe cramping. This may lead rapidly to systemic toxicity and must
be treated by a physician.
SIGNS AND SYMPTONS OF OVEREXPOSURE
Acute Effects
EXPOSURE IS NOT EXPECTED FOR PRODUCT UNDER NORMAL CONDITIONS OF USE.
Sulfuric Acid: Severe skin irritation, damage to cornea, upper respiratory irritation.
Lead Compounds: Symptoms of toxicity include headache, fatigue, abdominal pain, loss of
appetite, muscular aches and weakness, sleep disturbances and irritability
Chronic Effects
EXPOSURE IS NOT EXPECTED FOR PRODUCT UNDER NORMAL CONDITIONS OF USE.
Sulfuric Acid: Possible erosion of tooth enamel, inflammation of nose, throat & bronchial tubes.
