===================== Hazards Identification =====================
Routes of Entry: Inhalation:YES Skin:YES Ingestion:YES
Reports of Carcinogenicity:NTP:YES IARC:YES OSHA:YES
Health Hazards Acute and Chronic:EYE CONTACT MAY CAUSE IRRITATION. SKIN
CONTACT MAY CAUSE IRRITATION AND MAY CAUSE SENSITIZATION OR
ALLERGIC REACTIONS WHICH MAY BE ACCENTUATED BY HEAT AND HUMIDITY.
INAHLATION CAUSES UPPER RESPIRATORY IRRITATION. INGESTION IS
HARMFUL. CHRONIC:OVEREXPOSURE MAY LEAD TO COPPER POISONING,
RESULTING IN HEMOLYTIC ANEMIA & LIVER, KIDNEY & SPLEEEN DAMAGE.
EXCESSIVE ZINC INTAKE HAS BEEN ASSOCIATED WITH COP PER DEFICIENCY
ANEMIA. PROLONGED OR EXCESSIVE EXPOSURE MAY RESULT IN ARGYRIA, A
PERMANENT BLUE-GREY DISCOLORATION OF THE EYES, SKIN OR MUCOUS
MEMBRANES.
Explanation of Carcinogenicity:NTP? YES. NICKEL HAS BEEN CLASSIFIED BY
BOTH IARC & NTP AS HAVING SUFFICIENT EVIDENCE OF CARCINOGENICITY IN
HUMANS (CLASS 2B). ACGIH HAS CATEGORIZED NICKEL AS A5 (NOT
SUSPECTED AS A HUMAN CARCINOGEN).
Effects of Overexposure:THE SYMPTOMS OF THIS NICKEL DERMATITIS,
REFERRED TO AS "NICKEL ITCH," MAY INCLUDE AN ITCHING OR BURNING
SENSATION FOLLOWED BY THE ERUPTION OF SORES. INDIVIDUALS
HYPERSENSITIVE TO NICKEL MAY DEVELOP AS THMA, BRONCHITIS, SHORTNESS
OF BREATH OR WHEEZING. MAY CAUSE ABDOMINAL PAIN, NAUSEA, VOMITING
AND DIARRHEA.
Medical Cond Aggravated by Exposure:MAY AGGRAVATE EXISTING MEDICAL
CONDITIONS, SUCH AS RESPIRATORY AND/OR KIDNEY AILMENTS. INDIVIDUALS
WITH WILSON'S DISEASE ARE AT INCREASED RISK OF COPPER POISONING.
======================= First Aid Measures =======================
First Aid:EYE CONTACT: FLUSH EYES WITH PLENTY OF WATER. IF IRRITATION
DEVELOPS, CALL A PHYSICIAN. SKIN CONTACT: IMMEDIATELY WASH SKIN
WITH SOAP AND PLENTY OF WATER. IF IRRITATION PERSISTS, CALL A
PHYSICIAN. INH ALATION: IF EXPOSED TO EXCESSIVE LEVELS OF METAL
FUMES, REMOVE TO FRESH AIR AND SEEK MEDICAL ATTENTION. INGESTION:
PROCEDURES NORMALLY NOT NEEDED. IF LARGE QUANTITIES ARE INGESTED,
SEEK MEDICAL ADVICE .
===================== Fire Fighting Measures =====================
Extinguishing Media:USE CARBON DIOXIDE, CHEMICAL FOAM OR DRY CHEMICAL.
USE ANY MEANS FOR EXTINGUISHING SURROUNDING FIRE.
Fire Fighting Procedures:WEAR NIOSH/MSHA APPROVED POSITIVE-PRESSURE
SELF-CONTAINED BREATHING APPARATUS.
Unusual Fire/Explosion Hazard:NOT A FIRE OR EXPLOSION HAZARD IN SOLID
FORM. FINELY DIVIDED DUST MAY IGNITE AND BURN RAPIDLY WHEN MIXED
WITH AIR IN THE PROPER PROPORTIONS. TOXIC METAL FUMES MAY BE
RELEASED IN A FIRE SITUATION.
================== Accidental Release Measures ==================
Spill Release Procedures:CONTAIN SPILLAGE & SCOOP UP OR VACUUM.
NOTIFICATION OF THE NATIONAL RESPONSE CENTER (800/424-8802) MAY BE
REQUIRED. REFER TO EPA, DOT & APPLICABLE STATE & LOCAL REGULATIONS
FOR CURRENT RESPONSE INFORM ATION. IT IS RECOMMENDED THAT EACH USER
ESTABLISH A SPILL PREVENTION, CONTROL & COUNTERMEASURE PLAN (SPCC).
SUCH PLAN SHOULD INCLUDE PROCEDURES APPLICABLE TO PROPER STORAGE,
CONTROL/CLEANUP OF SPILL.
