First Aid Measures
Emergency procedures for chemical exposure incidents
Remove victim to fresh air and keep at rest in a position comfortable for breathing. Administer oxygen if breathing is difficult. Give artificial respiration if victim is not breathing. Do not use mouth-to-mouth method if victim inhaled the substance; give artificial respiration with the aid of a pocket mask equipped with a one-way valve or other proper respiratory medical device.
Wash with plenty of soap and water. Take off contaminated clothing and wash before reuse.
Rinse cautiously with water for several minutes. Remove contact lenses, if present and easy to do. Continue rinsing.
Do NOT induce vomiting. If conscious, drink large quantities of milk or water. Follow with milk of magnesia, beaten egg, egg whites or vegetable oil.
Immediate Medical Attention
If signs/symptoms develop, get medical attention. Get medical attention immediately.
Medical Treatment
All treatments should be based on observed signs and symptoms of distress in the patient. Consideration should be given to the possibility that overexposure to materials other than this product may have occurred.
Firefighting Measures
Extinguishing media, specific hazards, and firefighter protection
Dry chemical or CO2.
Water should not be used unless from a safe distance due to vigorous and exothermic reaction which will result.
Hydrogen and oxygen gases are produced during normal battery operation and charging. These gases escape through the battery vents and may form an explosive atmosphere around the battery if ventilation is poor. Avoid open flame, sparks and other ignition sources in areas where batteries are used or stored.
Firefighter Protection
Fire fighters should wear complete protective clothing including self-contained breathing apparatus. Wear chemical protective clothing that is specifically recommended by the manufacturer. It may provide little or no thermal protection. Fire fighters to wear acid-resistant full protective clothing, including rubber footwear and self-contained breathing apparatus.
Accidental Release Measures
Spill cleanup procedures, containment, and environmental protection
As an immediate precautionary measure, isolate spill or leak area for at least 50 meters (150 feet) in all directions. Keep unauthorized personnel away. Do not get water inside container.
If battery is leaking, place battery in a heavy-duty plastic bag.
Avoid run off to waterways and sewers.
Make certain mixture is neutral then collect residue and place in a drum or other suitable container.

Handling and Storage
Safe handling precautions, storage conditions, and workplace requirements
Use only in well-ventilated areas. Use caution when combining with water; DO NOT add water to corrosive liquid, ALWAYS add corrosive liquid to water while stirring to prevent release of heat, steam and fumes. Wear appropriate personal protective equipment, avoid direct contact. Do not get in eyes, on skin, or on clothing. Do not breathe mist, vapors, spray. Avoid direct conductive connection across positive and negative terminals to prevent short circuit.
Store in a cool/low temperature, well-ventilated place. Avoid storage in areas exposed to heat or solar buildup. Whenever feasible, store on shipping pallet or rack. Do not stack loaded pallets or racks on top of other batteries.
Wash thoroughly with soap and water after handling and before eating, drinking, or using tobacco.
Batteries should be kept away from ignition sources.
Exposure Controls / PPE
Occupational exposure limits, engineering controls, and protective equipment
Good general ventilation should be used. Ventilation rates should be matched to conditions. If applicable, use process enclosures, local exhaust ventilation, or other engineering controls to maintain airborne levels below recommended exposure limits. If exposure limits have not been established, maintain airborne levels to an acceptable level.
Acid resistant gloves such as rubber, neoprene, vinyl coated, PVC.
Wear eye/face protection - Chemical splash goggles, or - Full-face shield with safety glasses.
Follow the OSHA respirator regulations found in 29 CFR 1910.134 or European Standard EN 149. Use a NIOSH/MSHA or European Standard EN 149 approved respirators if exposure limits are exceeded or symptoms are experienced.
Acid resistant clothing with rubber/neoprene boots for major spill clean-up.
Controls should be engineered to prevent release to the environment, including procedures to prevent spills, atmospheric release and release to waterways. Follow best practice for site management and disposal of waste.
