Carcinogenicity
The table below indicates whether each agency has listed any ingredient as a carcinogen. However, the product as a whole has not been tested. IARC has classified “strong inorganic acid mist containing sulfuric acid” as a category 1 carcinogen, substance that is carcinogenic to humans. This classification does not apply to liquid forms of sulfuric acid or sulfuric acid solutions contained within a battery. Inorganic acid mist is not generated under normal use of this product. Misuse of the product, such as overcharging, may result in the generation of sulfuric acid mist. Hazardous exposure to lead can occur only when product is heated, oxidized or otherwise processed or damaged to create dust, vapor or fumes.
