SECTION 2: HAZARDS IDENTIFICATION  
Physical Appearance: Copper top battery.  
EMERGENCY OVERVIEW  
CAUTION: May explode or leak, and cause burn injury, if recharged, disposed of in fire, mixed with a  
different battery type, inserted backwards or disassembled. Replace all used batteries at the same time. Do  
not carry batteries loose in your pocket or purse. Do not remove the battery label.  
Potential Health Effects:  
The chemicals and metals in this product are contained in a sealed can. Exposure to the contents will not  
occur unless the battery leaks, is exposed to high temperatures or is mechanically, physically, or  
electrically abused. Damaged battery will release concentrated potassium hydroxide, which is caustic.  
Anticipated potential leakage of potassium hydroxide is 2 to 20 mL, depending on battery size.  
Eye Contact: Contact with battery contents may cause severe irritation and burns. Eye damage is  
possible.  
Skin Contact: Contact with battery contents may cause severe irritation and burns.  
Inhalation: Inhalation of vapors or fumes released due to heat or a large number of leaking batteries may  
cause respiratory and eye irritation.  
Ingestion: Swallowing is not anticipated due to battery size. Choking may occur if smaller AAA batteries  
are swallowed. Ingestion of battery contents (from a leaking battery) may cause mouth, throat and  
intestinal burns and damage.

SECTION 7: HANDLING AND STORAGE  
Avoid mechanical or electrical abuse. DO NOT short circuit or install incorrectly. Batteries may explode,  
pyrolize or vent if disassembled, crushed, recharged or exposed to high temperatures. Install batteries in  
accordance with equipment instructions. Do not mix battery systems, such as alkaline and zinc carbon, in  
the same equipment. Replace all batteries in equipment at the same time. Do not carry batteries loose in a  
pocket or bag. Do not remove battery tester or battery label.  
Storage: Store batteries in a dry place at normal room temperature. Do not refrigerate – this will not  
make them last longer.  
SECTION 8: EXPOSURE CONTROLS/PERSONAL PROTECTION  
The following occupational exposure limits are provided for informational purposes. No exposure to the  
battery components should occur during normal consumer use.

Hazardous Decomposition Products: Thermal decomposition may produce hazardous fumes of zinc  
and manganese; caustic vapors of potassium hydroxide and other toxic by-products.  
Hazardous Polymerization: Will not occur  
SECTION 11: TOXICOLOGICAL INFORMATION  
Acute Toxicity Data:  
Manganese Dioxide: LD50 oral rat >3478 mg/kg  
Potassium Hydroxide: LD50 oral rat 273 mg/kg  
Chronic Effects: The chemicals in this product are contained in a sealed can and exposure does not  
occur during normal handling and use. No chronic effects would be expected from handling a leaking  
battery.  
Target Organs: Skin, eyes and respiratory system.  
Carcinogenicity: None of the components of this product are listed as carcinogens by ACGIH, IARC,  
NTP or OSHA.  
SECTION 12: ECOLOGICAL INFORMATION  
No ecotoxicity data is available. This product is not expected to present an environmental hazard.  
SECTION 13: DISPOSAL INFORMATION  
Disposal should be in accordance with Federal, state/provincial and local regulations. Products covered  
by this MSDS, in their original form, when disposed as waste, are considered non hazardous waste  
according to Federal RCRA regulations (40 CFR 261).  
Alkaline batteries can be safely disposed of with normal household waste. Due to concerns about mercury  
in the municipal solid waste stream, Duracell has voluntarily eliminated all of the added mercury from its  
alkaline batteries since 1993. Individual consumers may dispose of spent (used) batteries with household  
trash. Duracell does not recommend that spent batteries be accumulated and disposed of in large  
quantities. Do not incinerate except for disposal in a controlled incinerator.  
Some communities offer recycling or collection of alkaline batteries – contact your local government for  
disposal practices in your area.  
SECTION 14: TRANSPORT INFORMATION  
Products covered by this MSDS, in their original form, are considered “dry cell” batteries and are not  
regulated for transportation as “DANGEROUS GOODS.” The batteries must be packaged in a manner  
that prevents the generation of a dangerous quantity of heat and short circuits.  
For finished packaged product transported by ground (US DOT): – not regulated  
For finished packaged product transported by sea (IMDG) – not regulated  
For finished packaged product transported by air (IATA): – not regulated
