General remark
This information is provided as a service to our customers. The details presented are in accordance with our present knowledge
and experiences. They are no contractual assurances of product attributes.
Legal remark (EU)
These batteries are no “substances” or “mixtures” according to Regulation (EC) No 1907/2006 EC. Instead they have to be
regarded as “articles”, no substances are intended to be released during handling. Therefore there is no obligation to supply a
safety data sheet according to Regulation (EC) 1907/2006, Article 31.
Legal remark (USA)
Safety Data Sheets are a sub-requirement of the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) Hazard Communication
Standard, 29 CFR Subpart 1910.1200. This Hazard Communication Standard does not apply to various subcategories including
anything defined by OSHA as an “article”. According to OSHA, Article means a manufactured item other than a fluid or particle: (i)
which is formed to a specific shape or design during manufacture; (ii) which has end use function(s) dependent in whole or in part
upon its shape or design during end use; and (iii) which under normal conditions of use does not release more than very small
quantities, e.g., minute or trace amounts of a hazardous chemical (as determined under paragraph (d) of this section), and does
not pose a physical hazard or health risk to employees.
Because all of our batteries are defined as “articles”, they are exempted from the requirements of the Hazard Communication
Standard.
2 Hazards identification
The battery is sealed hermetically. Thus, the ingredients have no hazard potential, except the battery is violated or dismantled.
If in case of mistreatment the ingredients are released, a spontaneously flammable gas mixture may be released under certain
circumstances (measures according to sections 4 to 6).
Attention: If batteries are treated wrong the danger of burns or bursts occurs. Batteries must not be heated above 100
◦
C or
incinerated. The battery contents must not get in contact with water. If the negative electrode gets in contact with water or
humidity hydrogen gas is formed, which may inflame spontaneously.
