Reactivity
NIOSH considers nickel metal and other compounds (as Ni) to be a potential occupational carcinogen. Nickel metal and other compounds (as Ni)
Decomposes on heating and on contact with acids. This produces carbon dioxide (see ICSC 0021). Reacts with aniline, hydrogen sulfide, flammable solvents, hydrazine and metal powders, especially zinc, aluminium and magnesium. This generates fire and explosion hazard.
Chemical stability
no data available
Possibility of hazardous reactions
Decomposes on heating and on contact with acids. This produces carbon dioxide (see ICSC 0021). This produces toxic fumes of nickel monoxide. See ICSC 0926.

STOT-single exposure
The substance is irritating to the skin.
STOT-repeated exposure
Repeated or prolonged contact may cause skin sensitization. Repeated or prolonged inhalation may cause asthma. The substance may have effects on the lungs. This substance is carcinogenic to humans if inhaled.
Aspiration hazard
Evaporation at 20°C is negligible; a harmful concentration of airborne particles can, however, be reached quickly when dispersed.

Disposal methods
ProductThe material can be disposed of by removal to a licensed chemical destruction plant or by controlled incineration with flue gas scrubbing. Do not contaminate water, foodstuffs, feed or seed by storage or disposal. Do not discharge to sewer systems.
Containers can be triply rinsed (or equivalent) and offered for recycling or reconditioning. Alternatively, the packaging can be punctured to make it unusable for other purposes and then be disposed of in a sanitary landfill. Controlled incineration with flue gas scrubbing is possible for combustible packaging materials.

Other Information
Temperature of decomposition is unknown in the literature.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.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.Isolate contaminated clothing by sealing in a bag or other container.Do NOT take working clothes home.
