lithium battery dangerous

lithium battery is a kind of lithium metal or lithium alloy positive/negative electrode materials, the use of non-aqueous electrolyte solution of the battery. Because the chemical characteristics of lithium metal are very active, the processing, preservation and use of lithium metal have very high environmental requirements. According to international regulations such as the United Nations Model Regulations on the Transport of Dangerous Goods and the International Maritime Dangerous Goods Code, lithium batteries may be classified as Class 9 miscellaneous dangerous goods (miscellaneous dangerous substances and articles, including environmentally hazardous substances).

The following procedure is only for lithium batteries or equipment containing lithium batteries that do not meet the special 188.

Lithium battery shipping export declaration requirements

article 17 of the the People's Republic of China Law on Import and Export Commodity Inspection stipulates:"An enterprise that produces packaging containers for dangerous goods for export must apply to the commodity inspection authorities for the performance appraisal of the packaging containers. An enterprise that produces dangerous goods for export must apply to the commodity inspection authorities for the appraisal of the use of the packaging containers. Dangerous goods that use packaging containers that have not been qualified for appraisal are not allowed to be exported."

therefore, for lithium batteries that use dangerous goods packaging, dangerous goods packaging manufacturers (I. e. lithium battery manufacturers or exporters) should apply to the local customs before exporting. Export dangerous goods packaging performance inspection and use identification, acquired outbound Goods Transport Packaging Performance Inspection Results Sheet "Outbound Dangerous Goods Transport Packaging Use Identification Results Sheet".

Before applying for the "Outbound Goods Transport Packaging Performance Inspection Results Sheet", the enterprise should first obtain the export dangerous goods packaging production enterprise code within the validity period.

What is the export of dangerous goods packaging production enterprise code?

Customs to export dangerous goods packaging production enterprises to implement code management, code should reflect the production of enterprises in the region directly under the customs information. The production enterprise code consists of a capital letter C (representing "Customs") and six Arabic numerals. The first two Arabic numerals represent the customs directly under the region where the enterprise is located (e.g. 52 represents Huangpu Customs), and the last four Arabic numerals 0001-9999 represent the production enterprise.

Application outbound Dangerous Goods Transport Packaging Use Identification Results List the rated energy (Wh) of the lithium battery must be marked, and the customs will make a qualified judgment when carrying out the identification of the packaging for the transport of dangerous goods out of the country.

1. Whether the packaging container is printed with clear, firm and correct UN packaging marks, batches and dangerous goods marks, and whether the marks, marks and packaging meet the relevant requirements.

2, the appearance of the packaging should be clean, no residue, pollution or leakage is allowed.

3, wooden box, fiberboard box with nail fastening should be nailed, nail tip to plate down, nail tip, nail cap shall not protrude; The box body should be intact, the corrugated box with tight hoop should be intact, the sealing should be flat and firm, and the box with tight hoop should be packed.

4. Between each battery or battery pack, between the upper and lower layers of stacked batteries, there should be non-conductive material separation to prevent mutual contact.

5, the battery should have a short-circuit protection device.

6. The electrode of the battery shall not support the quality of other superimposed batteries.

Special provisions on the packaging of lithium batteries or lithium battery packs in international regulations.

Lithium battery shipping export process

lithium battery shipping material needed for export

lithium battery shipping export needs to be carried out to the local commodity inspection bureau external packaging container compliance filing, and then "Outbound cargo transport packaging performance inspection results sheet" (performance sheet) and hazard characteristics classification identification report., apply to the local commodity inspection bureau dangerous Package Certificate that is, the "exit dangerous goods transport packaging use identification results list" after preparing the above documents, prepare the power of attorney for freight forwarding and apply to the shipping company for booking space.
