SECTION 2: Hazards identification
Inhalation of nickel Sulphate dust or mist can cause irritation of the upper respiratory tract. Skin contact may be irritating and can cause allergic dermatitis (“nickel itch”) characterized by itching, erythematic, and skin eruption. Eye contact with dust pr solutions may cause irritation. Ingestion of nickel salts can cause nausea, vomiting, and giddiness. The NTP and IARC list “nickel and certain nickel compounds” as suspected carcinogens. This is based in part on epidemiological evidence of excess incidences of nasal and lung cancer in populations of workers exposed to nickel or nickel compounds. The specific nickel compounds responsible have not been identified. ****************N.F.P.A.************************ Degree of hazard Emergency hazard rating 4=extreme Health < 3 > 3=High Fire < 0 > 2=Moderate Reactivity < 0 > 1=Slight Specific hazard < > 0=insignificant *********************************************** Hazard Label
