First Aid Measures
4.1. Description of first aid measures
The hazardous components of this cell or battery are contained within a sealed unit. The following measures are only applicable if
exposure has occurred to components when a cell or battery leaks, is exposed to high temperatures or is mechanically, electrically
or physically abused/damaged. The hazardous contents are caustic alkaline electrolytes contained in cells with lithium metal oxide
cathodes, graphite and carbon anodes and Polyvinylidenfluoride binders.
Ingestion:
Have victim rinse mouth thoroughly with water. DO NOT INDUCE VOMITING. Quickly transport victim to an emergency care facility. If eye contact with contents of an open cell occurs, immediately flush the contaminated eye(s) with water. Quickly transport victim to an emergency care facility. Skin Contact:
Immediately flush with water. If irritation or pain persists, seek medical attention. Inhalation:
Remove the patient from exposure into fresh air, seek medical attention. _ E-One Moli Energy (Canada) Ltd PROTECTION FOR FIRST
AIDERS:
Do not enter corrosive vapor contaminated areas without a respirator or Self Contained Breathing Apparatus. Wear adequate personal protective equipment as indicated in Section 8.
FIRST AID FACILITIES:
Eye wash bottle, fountain, safety showers or at least a source of running water are required in the area where the product is used. 4.2 MOST IMPORTANT SYMPTOMS & EFFECTS, ACUTE & DELAYED, CAUSED BY EXPOSURE:

ACUTE:
The contents of the battery are rated as corrosive. Ingestion of the electrolyte could lead to severe gastrointestinal tract irritation with nausea, vomiting and potentially burns. Inhalation of vapors may lead to severe irritation of the mouth and upper respiratory tract with a burning sensation, pain, burns and inflammation in the nose and throat; there may also be coughing or difficulty breathing. Eye contact may lead to severe eye irritation or in worst case scenario irreversible damage and possible eye burns. Skin contact may lead to irritation and possible skin burns.
CHRONIC:
Skin contact may aggravate/exacerbate existing skin conditions, such as dermatitis. Chronic inhalation may lead to the same symptoms as listed for acute inhalation above.
4.3 Indication of any immediate medical attention and special treatment needed
ADVICE TO DOCTOR:
Treat symptomatically if the person comes into contact with the corrosive electrolyte liquid contents of a damaged battery. 5. Fire Fighting Measures
5.1 Extinguishing media
Suitable extinguishing media:
Dry chemical, carbon dioxide and foam. Water acts as a cooling agent. Unsuitable extinguishing media: Strong oxidizing agents, strong reducing agents, strong acids and strong alkalis.
Despite water incompatibility, water is the most effective firefighting tool to control the spread of fire to other
cells and batteries and combustibles.
Explosion Data: Closed containers may explode, burst, rupture or vent when exposed to temperatures above 120°C
(248°F).
Hazchem Code (Australia, New Zealand, UK and Malaysia): 4W
Sensitivity to Mechanical Impact: Extreme mechanical abuse will result in rupture of the individual battery cells.
Sensitivity to Static Discharge: Electrostatic discharges imposed directly on the spilled electrolyte may start
combustion.
5.2 Special hazards arising from the Chemical:
The interaction of water vapor and exposed lithium hexafluorophosphate (LiPF6) may result in the generation of hydrogen and
hydrogen fluoride (HF) gas. Contact with battery electrolyte may be irritating to skin, eyes and mucous membranes. Thermal
degradation may produce hazardous fumes of lithium, cobalt and manganese, hydrofluoric acid, hydrogen and oxides of carbon,
aluminum, lithium, copper and cobalt as well and smoke and irritating, corrosive and/or toxic gases. Fumes may cause dizziness
or suffocation.
5.3 Advice for firefighters:
In case of fire where lithium-ion cells and batteries are present, flood the area with water. If any cells or batteries are burning,
water may not extinguish them, but will cool the adjacent cells or batteries and control the spread of fire. Carbon Dioxide, dry
chemical and foam extinguishers may be preferred for small fires, but also may not extinguish burning lithium-ion cells or batteries.
Burning cells or batteries will burn themselves out. Virtually all fires involving lithium-ion cells and batteries can be controlled with
water. When water is used, however, hydrogen gas may be evolved which can form an explosive mixture with air. LITH-X
(powdered graphite) or copper powder fire extinguishers, sand, dry ground dolomite or soda ash may also be used. These
materials act as smothering agents.
5.4 Protective Equipment and Precautions for firefighters:
In the case of a fire and the release of hydrogen fluoride, it is critical to protect the skin from any contact. Fire fighters should wear
a self-contained breathing apparatus. Burning lithium-ion cells and batteries can produce toxic fumes including hydrogen fluoride
(HF), oxides of carbon, aluminum, lithium, copper and cobalt. Volatile phosphorous penta fluoride may form at temperatures above
110°C (230°F). Wear adequate personal protective equipment as indicated in Section 8.
6. Accidental
Measures
6.1. Personal precautions, protective equipment and emergency procedures:
6.1.1. As an immediate precautionary measure, isolate spill or leak area for at least 25 meters (75 feet) in all directions. Keep
unauthorized personnel away. Stay upwind. Keep out of low areas. Ventilate closed areas before entering. Wear adequate personal protective equipment as indicated in Section 8. _ E-One Moli Energy (Canada) Ltd 6.2. Environmental precautions
6.2.1. Absorb spilled material with non-reactive absorbent such as vermiculite, clay or earth. Prevent from migration into soil,
sewers and natural waterways – inform local authorities if this occurs. 6.3. Methods and material for containment and cleaning up
6.3.1. Evacuate spill area immediately and remove sources of ignition. Do NOT touch spilled material. Cleanup personnel
must be trained in the safe handling of this product. Spills may be absorbed on non-reactive absorbents such as vermiculite. Place cells or batteries into individual plastic bags and then place into appropriate containers and close tightly for disposal. Ensure that cleanup procedures do not expose spilled material to any moisture. Immediately transport closed containers outside. Lined steel drums are suitable for storage of damaged cells or batteries until proper disposal can be arranged. 6.4. Reference to other sections

and is expect to cause respiratory irritation by inhalation. Inhalation of vapors may lead to severe irritation of the mouth and upper respiratory tract with a burning sensation, pain, burns and inflammation in the nose and throat; there may also be coughing or difficulty breathing. Specific Target Organ Toxicity (STOT) – Repeated Exposure: The cells or batteries are not expected to cause
organ damage from prolonged or repeated exposure according to tests such as OECD tests 410 and 412, based on the available data and the known hazards of the components. 11.11. Aspiration
Hazard: The cells or batteries are not classified as an aspiration hazard, based on the available data and

potential for short-circuiting to occur. Cells and batteries should be fully discharged before being sent for recycling. Do not
store used cells or batteries near heat sources, chemicals or food. Do not store or transport used lithium-ion cells or batteries
with lead acid batteries as they have different regulatory requirements. Do not break open or damage lithium-ion cells or
