A battery may burst and release hazardous decomposition products when exposed
to fire. Lithium polymer batteries contain flammable electrolyte that may vent,
ignite and produce sparks when subjected to high temperatures (›150°C/302°F),
when damaged or abused (e.g. mechanical damage or electrical overcharging),
may burn rapidly with flare-burning effect; may ignite other batteries in close
proximity.
Important
Any person responding to such an emergency should wear a self-contained
breathing apparatus.
Burning lithium polymer batteries produces toxic and corrosive lithium hydroxide
fumes and sulfur dioxide gas.
7.4
Accidental release measures
Personal precautions:
Wear the proper personal protective equipment.
Keep unprotected individuals away. Ensure
adequate ventilation.
Emergency procedures:
Remove ignition sources, evacuate the area.
Sweep up using a method that does not generate
dust. Collect as much of the spilled material as
possible, place the spilled material into an
appropriate disposal container. Keep spilled
material out of sewers, ditches and bodies of
water.
Environmental precautions:
Do not allow material to be released into the
environment without proper governmental
permits.
Methods and materials for
containment and cleaning up:
All waste must refer to the United Nations, the
national and local regulations for disposal.
