Safety data sheet for product

1. PRODUCT AND COMPANY IDENTIFICATION

 Product name: Lithium ion rechargeable battery cell
 Product code: None

(All models Sanyo manufactured and whose capacity is less than or equal to 5.4Ah,
including the cell branded as Panasonic, excluding the cell whose shape is prismatic and
two or more short / middle / long side excess 12mm/85mm/110mm.)

 Company name: Sanyo Electric Co., Ltd., Panasonic group
 Address: 222-1 , Kaminaizen, Sumoto City, Hyogo, Japan
 Telephone number: [phone]
 Fax number: [phone]
 Emergency telephone number: [Weekday] [phone] [Night and holiday] [phone]

2. HAZARDS IDENTIFICATION
For the battery cell, chemicals are contained in sealed metal or metal laminated plastic containers and the

battery is designed to withstand temperatures and pressures during normal handling. Therefore, there will be
no physical hazard such as ignition, rupture, etc. and no chemical hazard due to leakage of battery contents in
normal handling.

However, when exposing to fire, applying strong impact, disassembling, or applying electrical stress due to

misuse, the gas release vent may operate. In the worst case, battery cell case will breach, and hazardous
materials may leak.

Also, if the battery is heated intensely due to surrounding fires etc., irritating or harmful gas may be

generated.

 GHS classification: Not available

(This product is outside the scope of GHS system since it's considered as an "article".)

 Most important hazard and effects

Human health effects:

Inhalation: Vapor of the electrolyte has anesthetic effect and will stimulate the respiratory tract.
Skin contact: Vapor of the electrolyte will stimulate the skin. If electrolyte contacts the skin, it will
cause sore and stimulation on the skin.
Eye contact: Vapor of the electrolyte will stimulate the eyes. If electrolyte contacts the eye, it will
cause sore and stimulation on the eye. Electrolyte contains a substance which causes strong

inflammation especially to the eyes.
Environmental effects: Since a battery cell remains in the environment, do not throw out it into the
environment.

 Specific hazards:

If the electrolyte contacts with water, it will generate detrimental hydrogen fluoride.
Since the leaked electrolyte is inflammable liquid, do not bring close to fire.

4. FIRST-AID MEASURES

Spilled internal cell materials

 Inhalation:

Make the victim blow his/her nose, gargle. Seek medical attention if necessary.

 Skin contact:

Remove contaminated clothes and shoes immediately. Wash extraneous matter or contact region with

soap and plenty of water immediately.

 Eye contact:

Do not rub one’s eyes. Immediately flush eyes with water continuously for at least 15 minutes. Seek

medical attention immediately.

A battery cell and spilled internal cell materials

 Ingestion:

Make the victim vomit. When it is impossible or the feeling is not well after vomiting, seek medical

attention.

5. FIRE-FIGHTING MEASURES
 Suitable extinguishing media: Plenty of water, carbon dioxide gas, nitrogen gas, chemical powder fire

extinguishing medium and fire foam.

 Specific hazards: Corrosive gas may be emitted during fire.
 Specific methods of fire-fighting: When the battery burns with other combustibles simultaneously, take fire-

extinguishing method which correspond to the combustibles. Extinguish a fire from the windward as much
as possible.

 Special protective equipment for firefighters:

Respiratory protection: Respiratory equipment of a gas cylinder style or protection-against-dust mask
Hand protection: Protective gloves
Eye protection: Goggle or protective glasses designed to protect against liquid splashes
Skin and body protection: Protective cloth

6. ACCIDENTAL RELEASE MEASURES

Spilled internal cell materials, such as electrolyte leaked from a battery cell, are carefully dealt with according

to the followings.

 Precautions for human body:

Remove spilled materials with protective equipment (protective glasses and protective gloves). Do not

inhale the gas as much as possible. Moreover, avoid touching with as much as possible.

 Environmental precautions: Do not throw out into the environment.
 Method of cleaning up: The spilled solids are put into a container. The leaked place is wiped off with dry

cloth.

 Prevention of secondary hazards: Avoid re-scattering. Do not bring the collected materials close to fire.

7. HANDLING AND STORAGE

 Handling suggestions

 Do not connect the positive terminal to the negative terminal with electrical wire or chain.
 Avoid polarity reverse connection when installing the battery to an instrument.
 Do not wet the battery with water, seawater, drink or acid; or expose to strong oxidizer.
 Do not damage or remove the external tube.
 Keep the battery away from heat and fire.
 Do not disassemble or reconstruct the battery; or solder the battery directly.
 Do not give a mechanical shock or deform.
 Do not use unauthorized charger or other charging method. Terminate charging when the charging

process doesn’t end within specified time.

 Storage

 Do not store the battery with metalware, water, seawater, strong acid or strong oxidizer.
 Make the charge amount 30~50% then store at room temperature or less (temperature= -20~35 degree

C) in a dry (humidity: 45~85%) place. Avoid direct sunlight, high temperature, and high humidity.

 Use insulative and adequately strong packaging material to prevent short circuit between positive and

negative terminal when the packaging breaks during normal handling. Do not use conductive or easy to
break packaging material.

12. ECOLOGICAL INFORMATION
 Persistence/degradability:

Since a battery cell and the internal materials remain in the environment, do not bury or throw out into

the environment.

13. DISPOSAL CONSIDERATIONS
 Recommended methods for safe and environmentally preferred disposal:

Product (waste from residues)

Specified collection or disposal of lithium ion battery is required by the law like as "battery control law" in
several nations. Collection or recycle of the battery is mainly imposed on battery's manufacturer or
importer in the nations recycle is required.

Contaminated packaging

Neither a container nor packing is contaminated during normal use. When internal materials leaked from
a battery cell contaminates, dispose as industrial wastes subject to special control.

14. TRANSPORT INFORMATION
In the case of transportation, avoid exposure to high temperature and prevent the formation of any

condensation. Take in a cargo of them without falling, dropping and breakage. Prevent collapse of cargo piles
and wet by rain. The container must be handled carefully. Do not give shocks that result in a mark of hitting on
a cell. Please refer to Section 7-HANDLING AND STORAGE also.
