ACUTE HAZARDS | PREVENTION | FIRE FIGHTING | |
---|---|---|---|
FIRE & EXPLOSION | Not combustible. Gives off irritating or toxic fumes (or gases) in a fire. | See Chemical Dangers. | In case of fire in the surroundings, use appropriate extinguishing media. In case of fire: keep drums, etc., cool by spraying with water. |
PREVENT DISPERSION OF DUST! AVOID ALL CONTACT! | |||
---|---|---|---|
SYMPTOMS | PREVENTION | FIRST AID | |
Inhalation | Cough. Sore throat. | Use closed system or ventilation (not if powder). | Fresh air, rest. Refer for medical attention. |
Skin | Redness. | Protective gloves. Protective clothing. | Wear protective gloves when administering first aid. Remove contaminated clothes. Rinse skin with plenty of water or shower. |
Eyes | Redness. | Wear safety spectacles, face shield or eye protection in combination with breathing protection if powder. | First rinse with plenty of water for several minutes (remove contact lenses if easily possible), then refer for medical attention. |
Ingestion | Abdominal pain. Dizziness. Headache. Nausea. Vomiting. | Do not eat, drink, or smoke during work. | Rinse mouth. Give one or two glasses of water to drink. Refer for medical attention . |
SPILLAGE DISPOSAL | CLASSIFICATION & LABELLING |

ENVIRONMENT |
---|
The substance is very toxic to aquatic organisms. The substance may cause long-term effects in the aquatic environment. It is strongly advised not to let the chemical enter into the environment. |
NOTES |
---|
At temperatures up to 330 °C nickel (II) sulphate containing water of crystallization will gradually release its total water content. Depending on the degree of exposure, periodic medical examination is suggested. The symptoms of asthma often do not become manifest until a few hours have passed and they are aggravated by physical effort. Rest and medical observation are therefore essential. Anyone who has shown symptoms of sensitization due to this substance should avoid all further contact with nickel, nickel compounds and other metal compounds of e.g. copper, chromium and cobalt. Do NOT take working clothes home. Isolate contaminated clothing by sealing in a bag or other container. The recommendations on this Card also apply to Nickel sulfate hexahydrate (CAS 10101-97-0) and heptahydrate (CAS 10101-98-1). |
