1. Product and Company identification Product Category Product name Nominal Voltage Supplier's Name Supplier's Address : Alkaline Manganese Battery : LR20, LR14, LR6, LR03, LR1, 6LR61(6LF22), LR8D425 : 1.5 V (exception for 6LR61: 9V) : FDK CORPORATION : 1-6-41 Konan, Minato-ku, Tokyo 108-8212, Japan Telephone +81-3-5715-7435 : Same as above Emergency Contact Note: SDS is not applied to the product hermetically sealed as dry battery. The battery has no risk to life and health under normal use or transportation because ingredients of battery are not leaked out by virtue of hermetical sealing with metal case. This SDS notifies possible risk of our battery under abnormal use but mainly aim to provide information about ingredients, notice of handling and transportation regulations as a useful reference.
2. Hazards identification

3. Composition/ information on Ingredients

4. First-aid measures

5. Fire-fighting measures
Fire extinguishing agent: Water and all kind of extinguishers are available. Extinguishing method: Because packaging material of battery is paper, use water extinguisher, CO 2 extinguisher or powder extinguisher as normal extinguisher. Since vapor, generated from burning batteries may make eyes, nose and throat irritates, be sure to extinguish the fire on the windward side. Wear the respiratory protection equipment in some cases. Special equipment for the protection of firefighters A pair of flame-proof groves Hand protection: Eye protection: Face mask Protective wear of skin and/or body:  Protective clothing
6. Accidental release measures
Chemical contents are sealed in metal can. However if the battery is mechanically or electrically abused, contents may leak out. In such case, take action as showing below. Personal precautions : Temporary inhalation of fume or attaching of electrolyte to skin does not cause serious health hazard. Be sure the ventilation and washing out of electrolyte quickly. Environmental precautions : Clean up it quickly. Specific environmental precaution is not necessary. Method and materials for containment and methods and materials for cleaning up: Not applicable. Clean up and dispose of it according to section 13 Prevention of secondary hazards : No need. 7.
Handling and storing

8. Exposure controls and personal protection There is no need of personal protective equipment on regular handling and storage, but lot of electrolyte is released by mechanical or electrical abuse, use the protections as shown below. Respiratory protection: Mask (with a filter preferably) Hand protection: Synthetic rubber gloves Eye protection: Goggles or glasses 9. Physical and chemical properties State:   Solid Shape: Cylindrical   (Exception for 6LR61: Prismatic) Since battery is not chemical product other than above information is not applicable.
10. Stability and reactivity
Stability: Stable on regular handling External short circuit of battery, deformation by crush, exposure at high Conditions to avoid: temperature of more than 85 degree C (may cause leakage and rupture), direct sunlight, high humidity Water, a chain, and a piece of metal that may cause short circuit. Materials to avoid: Hazardous decomposition product: Emitted acrid or poisonous gases in fire. 11.
Toxicological information
Since chemicals are contained in a sealed can, there are no hazards.
12. Ecological information

Exposure of internal content of battery may occur by corrosion of metal case of battery after batteries are disposed of in ground and kept for long time. But no available information about environmental hazard is reported after evaluation of long term landfill experiment. Our battery does not involve more than limited contents of hazardous materials prohibited in EU Battery Directive (2013/56/EU).
13. Disposal considerations
Dispose of batteries in accordance with applicable federal, state and local regulations. For safety precaution, battery should insulate in proper manner; covering both terminals by tape, wrapping of battery in insulative bag or packing battery in original package is recommended for prevent from leakage and rupture due to short-circuit.
14. Transport Information
Caution for handling Avoid rough handling of battery cartons. Batteries shall be kept in dry and cool conditions. Do not place batteries in a place exposed to direct sunshine for a long time or splashed by rain water. Do not mix unpacked batteries so as to avoid mechanical damage and/or short-circuit among each other. Compliance with special Provision of transportation Because our battery is compliance with US DOT special provision 130 and IATA SP A123 as followings, any transportation is available. Alkaline Manganese Batteries are considered to be "dry cell" batteries and are unregulated for purposes of transportation by the U.S. Department of Transportation (DOT), International Civil Aviation Administration (ICAO), International Air Transport Association (IATA) and the International Maritime Organization (IMO). The only requirement for shipping these batteries by DOT is Special Provision 130 which states: "Batteries, dry are not subject to the requirements of this subchapter only when they are offered for transportation in a manner that prevents the dangerous evolution of heat (for example, by the effective insulation of exposed terminals). The requirements for shipping of theses batteries by ICAO and IATA is Special Provision A123 which states: "A battery or battery powered device having the potential of dangerous evolutions of heat that is not prepared so as to prevent a short-circuit (e.g. in the case of batteries, by the effective insulation of exposed terminals; or in the case of equipment, by disconnection of the battery and protection of exposed terminals) is forbidden from transportation. In addition, in the case of air transportation of batteries which is conformed to this requirement, the information "Not restricted, as per Special Provision A123" shall be noted in certain column of "Substances" of air waybill." Our battery complies above requirements because of implementation of applicable packaging preventing outer short-circuit by applying effective packing and obeying of waybill notation requirement.

15. Regulatory information
Environment-related law of batteries; EU nations have applicable law in accordance with Directive 2013/56/EU and other some countries, China, Korea, Brazil, some provinces of USA and Canada or so have similar law.
