MATERIAL
OVERVIEW
Characteristics:
Malleable, silvery metal; readily fabricated by hot
and cold working; takes high polish; excellent
resistance to corrosion. Attacked slightly by
hydrochloric and sulfuric acids, somewhat more by
nitric; highly resistant to strong alkalies.
Hazards:
Flammable and toxic as dust or fume. Tolerance 1 mg/m3 of air (soluble compounds). (as Ni), 0.1 mg/m3
of
air. Classified as a carcinogen (OSHA).
