NiCd Material Safety Data Sheet QAPTEC0024 Product Name: Nickel Cadmium Battery Chemical Systems: Nickel Cadmium Designed for Recharge: Yes According to REACH regulation (EC1907/2006, Article 31) these batteries are considered to be ARTICLES with no intended release. RoHS- Directive 2011/65/EU refers batteries to 2006/66EC and in turn to 2002/95/EC. The 2002/95/EC directive does not apply to batteries used in electrical and electronic equipment. Once batteries are removed from end of life electrical and electronic equipment batteries should comply again with the Battery directive 2011/65/EU as waste batteries. It is a requirement under this directive that all batteries should be recycled at end-of-life. SECTION I - MANUFACTURER INFORMATION Yuasa Battery Sales (UK) Ltd.
