Section II – HAZARDS IDENTIFICATION

※ This is a product that fulfills a certain function in solid state with specific shape without discharging any
chemical substance in its use and has no obligation to write (M)SDS. Since this document contains the
precautions for safe handling related to its materials or chemical substances consisting of this product,
please note that these overall information is irrelevant to this product.

2.1 Classification of the substance or mixture

2.1.1 Classification according to Regulation (EC) No. 1272/2008 [CLP] and OSHA 29 CFR 1910.12
00 : Not classified
2.1.2 Additional information:
Classification of the substance or mixture.
Preparation Hazards and Classification: The product is a Lithium ion cell or battery and is therefore
classified as an article and is not hazardous when used according to the recommendations of the
manufacturer. The hazard is associated with the contents of the cell or battery. Under recommended
use conditions, the electrode materials and liquid electrolyte are non-reactive provided that the cell or
battery integrity remains and the seals remain intact. The potential for exposure should not exist
unless the cell or battery leaks, is exposed to high temperatures or is mechanically, electrically or
physically abused/damaged. If the cell or battery is compromised and starts to leak, based upon the
battery ingredients, the contents are classified as Hazardous.

Page 2 of 22
SAMSUNG SDI Co., Ltd.
Date: 23 May. 2019 Revision no.: 02
MODEL EB-BT545AB*

Appearance, Color and Odor: Solid object with no odor.

Primary Routes(s) of Exposure: These chemicals are contained in a sealed enclosure. Risk of
exposure occurs only if the cell or pack is mechanically, thermally, electrically or physically abused to the
point of compromising the enclosure.
If this occurs, exposure to the electrolyte solution contained within can occur by inhalation, ingestion, eye
contact and skin contact.

Potential Health Effect(s):

Acute (short term): see Section 8 for exposure controls.
In the event that this cell or pack has been ruptured, the electrolyte solution contained within the cell
would be corrosive and can cause burns to skin and eyes.
Inhalation: Inhalation of materials from a sealed cell is not an expected route of exposure. Vapors
or mists from a ruptured cell may cause respiratory irritation.
Ingestion: Swallowing of materials from a sealed cell is not an expected route of exposure.
Swallowing the contents of an open cell can cause serious chemical burns to mouth, esophagus,
and gastrointestinal tract.
Skin: Contact between the cell and skin will not cause any harm. Skin contact with the contents of
an open cell can cause severe irritation or burns to the skin.
Eye: Contact between the cell and the eye will not cause any harm. Eye contact with the contents of
an open cell can cause severe irritation or burns to the eye.
CHRONIC (long term): see Section 11 for additional toxicological data.

Interactions with other chemicals: Immersion in high conductivity liquids may cause corrosion and
breaching of the cell or battery enclosure. The electrolyte solution inside of the cells may react with
alkaline (basic) materials and present a flammability hazard.

Potential Environmental Effects: Not Available.

Section V – FIRE-FIGHTING MEASURES

5.1 Extinguishing media
- 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.
5.2 Special hazards arising from the substance or mixture
- Flammable gas leaks before ignition and then the product ignites.
5.3 Advice for firefighters
- 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.
- When handling a overheated battery, wear heat-resistant protective equipment.

- Lithium hexafluorophosphate(1-) : According to expert review of fluoride intake and effects on human
health, fluoride intake in drinking water at levels close to or above 4 mg/l is associated with dental
fluorosis and perhaps also bone fluorosis and/or weakening.; Damage to dental enamel recorded:
especially notable in young animals, which also showed atrophy of respiratory organs/tissues with
local oedema of bronchial mucosa. Older animals showed peribronchial hyperplasia. Animals around
1 year in age showed cavity formation in their bones.(Information on major hydrolysis product of the
registered substance (released rapidly on contact with water/moisture))(OECD Guideline 412)
