2. Hazards identification
Inhalation of nickel sulfamate 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.
