9. Physical and Chemical Properties

General information

Appearance

The diamond powder is normally yellow but will vary due to the coating on the diamond. If coated with nickel the powder will be grey powder. If coated with copper the powder will be a salmon pink colour. Mixed with a white soft cream.

Odour

The cream presents an odour faint and typical to that of cetomacrogol cream.

10. Stability and Reactivity

Reactivity

No further relevant information available.

Chemical stability

Stable under normal conditions of use.

Possibility of hazardous reactions

On decomposition can release Carbon dioxide. Contact of dust with strong oxidiser may cause fire or explosion.

Conditions to avoid

Airborne fine powder dust in confined spaces. High heat and flame, diamond begins to burn at 800°C. Under special conditions, nickel can react with carbon monoxide in reducing atmosphere to form nickel carbonyl, a toxic gas. Copper reacts violently with acetylene, ammonia nitrate, bromates, chlorates, iodates, chlorine compounds, ethylene oxide, fluorine, hydrogen peroxide, hydrazine, hydrogen sulphide, hydrazoic acid, lead azide, potassium peroxide, sodium azide and sodium peroxide.

Incompatible materials

Contact with strong acids. Contact of dust with strong oxidiser may cause fire or explosion.

11. Toxicological Information

Acute effects

• Copper is a irritating to skin and eyes. Inhalation of copper will cause irritation to the lungs. Chronic copper
• poisoning is typified by hepatic cirrhosis, brain damage and demyelisation, kidney defects and copper
• deposition in the cornea as exemplified by humans with Wilson's disease.

Eye contact

• Diamond dust may cause irritation.
• Sorbolene with Glycerin 10% cream is non-irritating to the mucous membranes.

Skin contact

• Diamond dust may irritate skin.
• Sorbolene with Glycerin 10% cream is suitable for use on sensitive skin; sensitivity to preservative (methyl &
• propyl hydrobenzoates) may cause a reaction to those susceptible.

Ingestion

• Not likely due to the form of the product.
