Because of the cell structure the dangerous ingredients will not be available if used properly. During charge process a lithium graphite intercalation phase is formed.
First Aid Measures
Emergency procedures for chemical exposure incidents
In case of inhalation of organic electrolyte mist, remove from exposure to fresh air. If necessary give oxygen. Get medical attention.
Remove contaminated clothing and wash before reuse. Immediately rinse contact area with plenty of clean water. Provide first aid to contacted area to prevent infection. Get medical attention.
Rinse eyes with plenty of water for at least 15 minutes and seek medical attention.
In case of ingestion of electrolyte don't induce vomiting. If patient is conscious and alert give 2~4 cupful's of milk or water. Never give anything by mouth to an unconscious person. Get medical attention immediately.
Immediate Medical Attention
Get medical attention.
Firefighting Measures
Extinguishing media, specific hazards, and firefighter protection
When the scale of the fire is small, use a HFC (hydrofluorocarbon) clean-agent fire extinguisher or alcohol resistant foam fire extinguishers. (In case of battery overheating, wear protective gear and immerse heated battery in water). In case of large fire, use large amount of water to extinguish.
Flammable gas leaks before ignition and then the product ignites.
The ignited battery has a high temperature, so there is a risk of additional ignition even if the fire is extinguished at early stage. Sprinkle a large amount of water until the battery temperature drops to normal temperature. If the battery is ignited in multi-stacked condition, multi-stack should be disassembled and then extinguished so that heat is not transferred between batteries. In the event of a battery fire, cool it by spraying water directly on the battery.
Firefighter Protection
When handling a overheated battery, wear heat-resistant protective equipment.
Accidental Release Measures
Spill cleanup procedures, containment, and environmental protection
In case of cell damage, possible release of dangerous substances and a flammable gas mixture. Eliminate all ignition sources. Move battery to well ventilated area to prevent gas accumulation.
Avoid release to the environment.
Cover with Dry earth, DRY sand or other non-combustible material and put on the plastic sheet to minimize spreading or contact with rain. Move battery to well ventilated area to prevent gas accumulation.
Materials: Dry earth, DRY sand or other non-combustible material

Handling and Storage
Safe handling precautions, storage conditions, and workplace requirements
In case of cell damage, possible release of dangerous substances and a flammable gas mixture. The battery stores electrical energy and is capable of rapid energy discharge. Battery cell contents are under pressure. Handle battery carefully to avoid puncturing case or electrically shorting terminals.
Storage at room temperature (approx. 20°C) at approx. 40% of the nominal capacity. Keep in closed original container.
Exposure Controls / PPE
Occupational exposure limits, engineering controls, and protective equipment
Avoid charging batteries in areas where hydrogen gas accumulate. Use local exhaust ventilation to maintain concentrations of hydrogen below the Lower Explosive collect and transport flammable gases in ventilation systems. Insure proper ventilation is present and electrolyte mist and vapours.
Wear nitrile butyl rubber, neoprene, or PVC glove during battery component disassembly.
Wear ANSI approved safety glasses with side shield during normal use. Wear NIOSH approved face shield with safety glasses and H.V protection during intentional disassembly.
None required during normal use. Wear NIOSH or European Standard EN 149 approved full or half face piece (with goggles) respiratory protective equipment when necessary. In lack of oxygen (< 19.5%), wear the supplied-air respirator or self-contained oxygen breathing apparatus. In case exposed to particulate material, the respiratory protective equipments as follow are recommended; facepiece filtering respirator or air-purifying respirator, high-efficiency particulate air (HEPA) filter media or respirator equipped with powered fan, filter media of use (dust, mist, fume)
Wear protective clothing during battery component disassembly. Discard contaminated work clothing after one work day.

Stability and Reactivity
Chemical stability, hazardous reactions, and incompatible materials
There is no hazard when the measures for handling and storage are followed. Stable under normal temperatures and pressures.
Stable at ambient temperature.
Will not occur under normal conditions. In case of cell damage, possible release of dangerous substances and a flammable gas mixture. Containers may explode when heated. Fire may produce irritating and/or toxic gases. Some liquids produce vapors that may cause dizziness or suffocation. Inhalation of material may be harmful.
Keep away from heat/sparks/open flames/hot surfaces. No smoking. Friction, heat, sparks or flames. Dusts or shavings from borings, turnings, cuttings, etc. Do not exceed manufacturer’s recommendation for charging or use battery for an application for which it was not specifically designed. Do not electrically short.
Avoid contact with acids and oxidizers. Keep away from any possible contact with water, because of violent reaction and possible flash fire. Handle under inert gas. Protect from moisture. Combustibles, reducing agents
None under normal conditions. Corrosive and/or toxic fume. Material may produce irritating and highly toxic gases from decomposition by heat and combustion during burning. Irritating and/or toxic gases
