Procedures
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.
Unusual Fire and
Explosion Hazards
Cells or batteries may flame or leak potentially hazardous organic vapors if exposed to
excessive heat or fire. 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.
