4. First Aid Measures
Eyes: Flush with water for at least 15 minutes. If irritation occurs and persists, contact a
medical doctor.
Skin: Remove contaminated clothing and thoroughly wash with soap and plenty of water. If
irritation persists, contact a medical doctor.
Inhalation: Remove to fresh air. If breathing difficulty or discomfort occurs and persists, see
a medical doctor. If breathing has stopped, give artificial respiration and see a medical
doctor IMMEDIATELY.

6. Accidental Release Measures
Procedure for Release and Spill:
Sweep up and place in a suitable container, Dispose or waste according to all local,
state and Federal Laws and Regulations.
Before cleanup measures begin, review the entire MSDS with particular attention Potential
Health Effects; and on Recommended Personal Protective Equipment.
7. Handling and storage
Handling: Avoid contact with eyes, skin or clothing, use with adequate ventilation. Wear
safety glasses and rubber gloves. Wash thoroughly after handling.
Material Storage
Lithium Cobalt Oxide Keep away from strong acids. Keep container closed.
Carbon Store this material in a sealed enclosure to avoid dispersion
of carbon fiber dust. Keep container closed.
Bond Store in a cool, dry place. This material is not hazardous
under normal storage condition; however, material should be
stored in closed container, in a secure area to prevent container
damage and subsequent spillage.
Electrolyte Store in tightly closed containers in a cool, dry, isolated,
well-ventilated area away from heat, sources of ignition and in
compatibles. Store in original container. Keep from freezing.
Avoid exposure to high temperatures
8. Exposure Controls/Person Protection.
Engineering controls: Investigate engineering techniques to reduce exposures use with
adequate ventilation a Recommended personal protective Equipment
Eye/Face protection: Use good industrial practice to avoid eye contact. Processing of this
product releases vapors or fumes which may cause eye irritation. Where
eye contact may be likely wear chemical goggles and have eye flushing

equipment available
Skin protection: Minimize skin contamination by following good industrial hygiene
practices Wearing protective gloves is recommended Wash hands and
contaminated skin thoroughly after handling.
Respiratory protection: Avoid breathing dust and processing vapors When adequate
ventilation is not available wear a NIOSH/MSHA respirator approved
for protection against inorganic dusts.
Special clothing: Robber gloves.
Other: Quick-drench eye wash and safety shower.
