Section 4. First-Aid Measures

INHALATION: move to fresh air; get medical attention if exposure has been severe.

INGESTION: give large amount of water.

EYES: flush with plenty of water for at least 15 min.

SKIN: flush with water. (USCG, 1999)

Section 5. Fire-Fighting Measures

Excerpt from ERG Guide 151 [Substances - Toxic (Non-Combustible)]:

SMALL FIRE: Dry chemical, CO2 or water spray.

LARGE FIRE: Water spray, fog or regular foam. If it can be done safely, move undamaged containers away from the area around the fire. Dike runoff from fire control for later disposal. Avoid aiming straight or solid streams directly onto the product.

FIRE INVOLVING TANKS, RAIL TANK CARS OR HIGHWAY TANKS: Fight fire from maximum distance or use unmanned master stream devices or monitor nozzles. Do not get water inside containers. Cool containers with flooding quantities of water until well after fire is out. Withdraw immediately in case of rising sound from venting safety devices or discoloration of tank. ALWAYS stay away from tanks in direct contact with flames. For massive fire, use unmanned master stream devices or monitor nozzles; if this is impossible, withdraw from area and let fire burn. (ERG, 2024)

If material involved in fire: Extinguish fire using agent suitable for type of surrounding fire. (Material itself does not burn or burns with difficulty). Use foam, dry chemical, or carbon dioxide. Keep run-off water out of sewers and water sources.

Section 6. Accidental Release Measures

Excerpt from ERG Guide 151 [Substances - Toxic (Non-Combustible)]:

IMMEDIATE PRECAUTIONARY MEASURE: Isolate spill or leak area in all directions for at least 50 meters (150 feet) for liquids and at least 25 meters (75 feet) for solids.

SPILL: Increase the immediate precautionary measure distance, in the downwind direction, as necessary.

FIRE: If tank, rail tank car or highway tank is involved in a fire, ISOLATE for 800 meters (1/2 mile) in all directions; also, consider initial evacuation for 800 meters (1/2 mile) in all directions. (ERG, 2024)

Nickel is removed from waste water containing nickel chloride by using membrane electrodialysis with a cell thickness 0.77 mm and flow rate 1.18 ml/min.

/Precipitator is/ effective for controlling ... /nickel chloride/ discharged on the ground or into water.

SRP: At the time of review, criteria for land treatment or burial (sanitary landfill) disposal practices are subject to significant revision. Prior to implementing land disposal of waste residue (including waste sludge), consult with environmental regulatory agencies for guidance on acceptable disposal practices.

Personnel protection: Keep upwind. Avoid breathing dusts and fumes from burning material. ... Avoid contact with the material.

If material not involved in fire: Keep material out of water sources and sewers.

SRP: Contaminated protective clothing should be segregated in such a manner so that there is no direct personal contact by personnel who handle, dispose, or clean the clothing. Quality assurance to ascertain the completeness of the cleaning procedures should be implemented before the decontaminated protective clothing is returned for reuse by the workers. All contaminated clothing should not be taken home at end of shift, but should remain at employee's place of work for cleaning.

SRP: The scientific literature for the use of contact lenses in industry is conflicting. The benefit or detrimental effects of wearing contact lenses depend not only upon the substance, but also on factors including the form of the substance, characteristics and duration of the exposure, the uses of other eye protection equipment, and the hygiene of the lenses. However, there may be individual substances whose irritating or corrosive properties are such that the wearing of contact lenses would be harmful to the eye. In those specific cases, contact lenses should not be worn. In any event, the usual eye protection equipment should be worn even when contact lenses are in place.

Section 7. Handling and Storage

Excerpt from ERG Guide 151 [Substances - Toxic (Non-Combustible)]:

Do not touch damaged containers or spilled material unless wearing appropriate protective clothing. Stop leak if you can do it without risk. Prevent entry into waterways, sewers, basements or confined areas. Cover with plastic sheet to prevent spreading. Absorb or cover with dry earth, sand or other non-combustible material and transfer to containers. DO NOT GET WATER INSIDE CONTAINERS. For solids, prevent dust cloud and avoid inhalation of dust. (ERG, 2024)

Use ambient storage temp and open venting.

NICKEL CHLORIDE is a yellow, crystalline material, mildly toxic, carcinogenic. On contact with strong acids or acid fumes it produces highly toxic and corrosive hydrogen chloride gas. When heated to decomposition it emits toxic chloride fumes [Lewis, 3rd ed., 1993, p. 915].

Section 11. Toxicological Information

... Nickel chloride is a water soluble salt. ... Respiratory absorption with secondary GI absorption of nickel (insoluble & soluble /salts/) is the major route of entry during occupational exposure. A significant quantity of inhaled material is swallowed following mucocillary clearance from the respiratory tract. Poor personal hygiene & work practices can contribute to GI exposure. Percutaneous absorption is negligible, quantitatively, but is important in the pathogenesis of contact hypersensitivity. Absorption is related to the solubility of the compound, followed the general relationships nickel carbonyl > soluble nickel compounds > insoluble nickel compounds. ... Studies in which nickel was administered via inhalation are limited. Studies on hamsters & rats ... /with/ soluble nickel chloride ... /absorption was/ rapid. ... Nickel chloride injected ip into mice & rats caused a rapid decr in body temperature. Nickel chloride given orally, or by inhalation, has been reported to decr iodine uptake by the thyroid /gland/. ... Nickel chloride affects the T-cell system & suppresses the activity of natural killer cells. Parenteral administration of nickel chloride ... has been reported to cause interuterine mortality & decr weight gain in rats & mice. ... Nickel chloride /did not/ induce tumors of the peritoneal cavity in rats after repeated administration. /Another study reported that/ ... nickel chloride which had not induced local tumors in im studies, were tested using repeated ip administration, ... elicited a carcinogenic response. ... Cases of nickel poisoning ... /have been reported/ in electroplaters who accidentally ingested water contaminated with ... nickel chloride.

Nickel is known to substitute for other essential elements in certain enzmes, such as calcineurin. It is genotoxic, and some nickel compounds have been shown to promote cell proliferation. Nickel has a high affinity for chromatin proteins, particularly histones and protamines. The complexing of nickel ions with heterochromatin results in a number of alterations including condensation, DNA hypermethylation, gene silencing, and inhibition of histone acetylation, which have been shown to disturb gene expression. Nickel has also been shown to alter several transcription factors, including hypoxia-inducible transcription factor, activating transcription factor, and NF-KB transcription factor. There is also evidence that nickel ions inhibit DNA repair, either by directly inhibiting DNA repair enzymes or competing with zinc ions for binding to zinc-finger DNA binding proteins, resulting in structural changes in DNA that prevent repair enzymes from binding. Nickel ions can also complex with a number of cellular ligands including amino acids, peptides, and proteins resulting in the generation of oxygen radicals, which induce base damage, DNA strand breaks, and DNA protein crosslinks. (L41, A40)

A4: Not classifiable as a human carcinogen. /Nickel, soluble inorganic compounds (NOS), as Ni/

Evaluation: There is sufficient evidence in humans for the carcinogenicity of nickel sulfate, and of the combinations of nickel sulfides and oxides encountered in the nickel refining industry. There is inadequate evidence in humans for the carcinogenicity of metallic nickel and nickel alloys. There is sufficient evidence in experimental animals for the carcinogenicity of metallic nickel, nickel monoxides, nickel hydroxides and crystalline nickel sulfides. There is limited evidence in experimental animals for the carcinogenicity of nickel alloys, nickelocene, nickel carbonyl, nickel salts, nickel arsenides, nickel antimonide, nickel selenides and nickel telluride. There is inadequate evidence in experimental animals for the carcinogenicity of nickel trioxide, amorphous nickel sulfide and nickel titanate. The Working Group made the overall evaluation on nickel compounds as a group on the basis of the combined results of epidemiological studies, carcinogenicity studies in experimental animals, and several types of other relevant data, supported by the underlying concept that nickel compounds can generate nickel ions at critical sites in their target cells. Overall evaluation: Nickel compounds are carcinogenic to humans (Group 1). Metallic nickel is possibly carcinogenic to humans (Group 2B). /Nickel compounds/

1, carcinogenic to humans. (L135)

The most common harmful health effect of nickel in humans is an allergic reaction. This usually manifests as a skin rash, although some people experience asthma attacks. Long term inhahation of nickel causes chronic bronchitis and reduced lung function, as well as damage to the naval cavity. Ingestion of excess nickel results in damage to the stomach, blood, liver, kidneys, and immune system, as well as having adverse effects on reproduction and development. (L41)

Inhalation (L41) ; oral (L41) ; dermal (L41)

Symptoms of nickel poisoning include headache, nausea, vomiting, dizziness, irritability, and difficulty sleeping, followed by chest pains, sweating, rapid heart beat, and a dry cough. (L42)

Skin Sensitizer - An agent that can induce an allergic reaction in the skin.

Asthma - Reversible bronchoconstriction (narrowing of bronchioles) initiated by the inhalation of irritating or allergenic agents.

The toxicity of nickel salts to carp was relatively lower ... /and/ the inhibition of nickel accumulation by the presence of complexans was recognized throughout the fish, but no significant decrease of mortality was seen.

Nickel chloride induction of /metallothionein/ in liver and kidneys /of male Fischer rats/ was inhibited by cycloheximide (2 mg/kg, ip).

Synergistic induction /of microsomal heme oxygenase activity/ was observed in liver and kidneys of rats killed after administration of sodium diethyldithiocarbamate and nickel chloride (NiCl2) at all dosage combinations (diethyldithiocarbamate dosages: 0.33 to 1.33 mmol/kg, im, 17 hr before death; NiCl2 dosages: 0.125 and 0.25 mmol/kg, sc, 17 hr before death). At the highest dosages ... the dual treatments induced heme oxygenase activity 11 fold in liver and 16 fold in kidneys ... at the same dosage given /alone/ ... NiCl2 induction was 1.3 fold in liver and 6 fold in kidneys.

Cells from the CHO-K1-Chinese hamster fibroblast line and human lymphocytes from the peripheral blood of a male subject were used to evaluate subtoxic doses of insoluble metal compounds in the sister chromatid exchange assay. While NTA did not induce sister chromatid exchange in the CHO cell line, soluble compounds of cadmium chloride, potassium dichromate, mercury chloride, and nickel chloride significantly increased sister chromatid exchange in CHO cells, establishing a clear dose effect relationship. Equimolar concentrations of NTA did not enhance sister chromatid exchange induction by metals. The NTA/metal complexes, once formed, were genetically active at extremely low concentrations. The enhancement of the genetic activity was not pH dependent. These effects were also demonstrated in the presence of sodium, magnesium and calcium ions in concentrations largely exceeding those of the genotoxic metal cationic and anionic forms.

Thirty-two workers in an electroplating plant accidentally drank water contaminated with nickel sulfate and nickel chloride (1.63 g nickel/l). Twenty workers rapidly developed symptoms (e.g., nausea, vomiting, abdominal discomfort, diarrhoea, giddiness, lassitude, headache, cough, shortness of breath) that typically lasted a few hours, but persisted for 1-2 days in 7 cases. The nickel doses in workers with symptoms were estimated to range from 0.5 to 2.5 g. In 15 exposed workers, who were investigated on day 1 after exposure, serum-nickel concentrations ranged from 12.8 to 1340 ug/l (average 286 ug/l) with urinary nickel concentrations ranging from 0.23 to 37.1 mg/l (average 5.8 mg/l) compared with control values for nickel-plating workers of 2.0-6.5 ug/l (average 4.0 ug/l) for serum nickel and 22-70 ug/l (average 50 ug/l) for urinary nickel. Laboratory tests showed transiently elevated levels of blood reticulocytes (7 workers), urine-albumin (3 workers), and serum-bilirubin (2 workers) ... .

When aqueous solutions of nickel chloride were applied to the back, the threshold concentrations for irritancy were 1% with occlusion and 10% without occlusion ... .
