Battery Electrolyte

Remove to fresh air immediately. If breathing is difficult, give oxygen. Consult a physician.

Flush with large amounts of water for at least 15 minutes; remove contaminated clothing completely, including shoes. If symptoms persist, seek medical attention. Wash contaminated clothing before reuse. Discard contaminated shoes.

Flush immediately with large amounts of water for at least 15 minutes; consult physician.

Give large quantities of water; do not induce vomiting or aspiration into the lungs may occur and can cause permanent injury or death; consult a physician.

CO₂; foam; dry chemical; water; water fog.

Reacts violently with metals, nitrates, chlorates, carbides and other organic materials. Reacts with most metals to yield explosive and flammable hydrogen gas.

Water applied to sulfuric acid generates heat and causes acid to splatter.

Stop flow of material, contain/absorb small spills with dry sand, earth or vermiculite. Do not use combustible materials. If possible, carefully neutralize spilled electrolyte with soda ash, sodium bicarbonate, lime, etc.

contain/absorb small spills with dry sand, earth or vermiculite

Handle cautiously; avoid contact with skin and eyes.

Store in cool, dry, well-ventilated areas with impervious surfaces and adequate containment in the event of spills. Store and handle only in areas with adequate water supply and spill control. Avoid damage to containers. Keep away from metallic objects.

Store and handle in well-ventilated area. If mechanical ventilation is used, components must be acid-resistant.

Use rubber or plastic acid-resistant gloves with elbow-length gauntlet

Use chemical goggles or face shield.

None required under normal conditions. When concentrations of sulfuric acid mist are known to exceed the PEL, use NIOSH or MSHA-approved respiratory protection.

Acid-resistant apron, clothing and boots. Under severe exposure emergency conditions, wear acid-resistant clothing and boots.

This product is stable under normal conditions at ambient temperature.

Will not occur.

Contact with organic materials, combustibles, strong reducing agents, metals, strong oxidizers, water.

Contact with combustibles and organic materials may cause fire and explosion. Also reacts violently with strong reducing agents, metals, sulfur trioxide gas, strong oxidizers and water. Contact with metals may produce toxic sulfur dioxide fumes and may release flammable hydrogen gas.

Sulfur trioxide, carbon monoxide, sulfuric acid mist, sulfur dioxide, and hydrogen sulfide.

Place neutralized slurry into sealed containers and handle as applicable with state and federal regulations. Large water-diluted spills, after neutralization and testing, should be managed in accordance with approved local, state and federal requirements.

Consult state environmental agency and/or federal EPA.
