| NOTES |
|
There is little information on the effects of this compound. Health effects are here mainly based on the studies of other cadmium compounds. Depending on the degree of exposure, periodic medical examination is suggested. Welding and soldering of surfaces treated with cadmium sulfide release highly toxic cadmium oxide which may cause acute lung injury (see ICSC 0117 - cadmium monoxide). Do NOT take working clothes home. Cadmium golden 366, Cadmium lemon yellow, Cadmium orange, Cadmium primrose 819, Cadmium yellow 10G conc., Cadmium yellow conc. primrose, Cadmopur golden yellow N, Cadmopur yellow, Capsebon, Ferro lemon yellow are trade names. |
