SYNONYM REFERENCE
- (Ariel GlobalView, 2001; Budavari, 2000; HSDB, 2001; Lewis, 2000; Lewis, 1998; RTECS, 2001)
USES/FORMS/SOURCES
Zinc chromate is used as a pigment in paints, varnishes, rubber, and linoleum. It is also used to impart corrosion resistance to epoxy laminates and paint-primers, and as an ingredient in anti-freeze (ACGIH, 1991a; Budavari, 2000; ILO, 1998; OHM/TADS, 2001; Lewis, 1998; Sittig, 1991a).
Zinc chromate is produced by the reaction of chromic acid with zinc oxide slurries or zinc hydroxide (ILO, 1998). It is commercially available in the United States only in the form of basic zinc chromate (comprised of zinc oxide (71%), chromium oxide (17%), water and water-soluble salts) (HSDB, 2001).
SYNONYM EXPLANATION
- Note: The title compound is a hexavalent chromium compound. Please refer to the "CHROMIUM VI" Document for more information.
-CLINICAL EFFECTS
GENERAL CLINICAL EFFECTS
- Zinc chromate may be irritating to the eyes, skin, and mucous membranes. Signs and symptoms of exposure may include conjunctivitis, ulceration and perforation of the nasal septum, rhinitis, pharyngitis, cough, dyspnea, headache, dizziness, dermatitis, and skin ulceration. Abdominal pain, vomiting and diarrhea may occur following ingestion. Leukocytosis, leukopenia, monocytosis, and eosinophia have also be observed.
- Studies of persons involved in the manufacture of zinc chromate pigments have shown an increased risk for cancer of the lungs, nasal cavity, and paranasal sinuses.
- POTENTIAL HEALTH HAZARDS - EMERGENCY RESPONSE GUIDEBOOK, GUIDE 171 (ERG, 2004)
Inhalation of material may be harmful. Contact may cause burns to skin and eyes. Inhalation of Asbestos dust may have a damaging effect on the lungs. Fire may produce irritating, corrosive and/or toxic gases. Some liquids produce vapors that may cause dizziness or suffocation. Runoff from fire control may cause pollution.
ACUTE CLINICAL EFFECTS
- Zinc chromate is a severe eye, nose, throat, and respiratory tract irritant (HSDB). Hexavalent chromates can be absorbed through the GI tract, lungs, or skin in toxic amounts EVEN FROM PRODUCTS WHICH HAVE BEEN PREVIOUSLY USED, such as during sanding of dried paints containing chromates.
CHRONIC CLINICAL EFFECTS
- Both zinc and chromium have long half-lives in the body (approximately 2 or 3 years). It is thus likely that zinc chromate could exhibit CUMULATIVE TOXICITY. Chromium compounds, including zinc chromate, can cause ulcerative dermatitis, with deep, slow-healing lesions with exposure, or during sanding of dried chromate-containing paint (Engel & Calnan, 1963; Hal, 1944).
-MEDICAL TREATMENT
LIFE SUPPORT
- Support respiratory and cardiovascular function.
SUMMARY
- FIRST AID - EMERGENCY RESPONSE GUIDEBOOK, GUIDE 171 (ERG, 2004)
Move victim to fresh air. Call 911 or emergency medical service. Give artificial respiration if victim is not breathing. Administer oxygen if breathing is difficult. Remove and isolate contaminated clothing and shoes. In case of contact with substance, immediately flush skin or eyes with running water for at least 20 minutes. Ensure that medical personnel are aware of the material(s) involved, and take precautions to protect themselves.
INHALATION EXPOSURE - INHALATION: Move patient to fresh air. Monitor for respiratory distress. If cough or difficulty breathing develops, evaluate for respiratory tract irritation, bronchitis, or pneumonitis. Administer oxygen and assist ventilation as required. Treat bronchospasm with an inhaled beta2-adrenergic agonist. Consider systemic corticosteroids in patients with significant bronchospasm. If bronchospasm and wheezing occur, consider treatment with inhaled sympathomimetic agents.
DERMAL EXPOSURE - DECONTAMINATION: Remove contaminated clothing and jewelry and place them in plastic bags. Wash exposed areas with soap and water for 10 to 15 minutes with gentle sponging to avoid skin breakdown. A physician may need to examine the area if irritation or pain persists (Burgess et al, 1999). Treat dermal irritation or burns with standard topical therapy. Patients developing dermal hypersensitivity reactions may require treatment with systemic or topical corticosteroids or antihistamines.
EYE EXPOSURE - DECONTAMINATION: Remove contact lenses and irrigate exposed eyes with copious amounts of room temperature 0.9% saline or water for at least 15 minutes. If irritation, pain, swelling, lacrimation, or photophobia persist after 15 minutes of irrigation, the patient should be seen in a healthcare facility.
ORAL EXPOSURE - Because of the potential for gastrointestinal tract irritation, DO NOT induce emesis. DILUTION: If no respiratory compromise is present, administer milk or water as soon as possible after ingestion. Dilution may only be helpful if performed in the first seconds to minutes after ingestion. The ideal amount is unknown; no more than 8 ounces (240 mL) in adults and 4 ounces (120 mL) in children is recommended to minimize the risk of vomiting.
-RANGE OF TOXICITY
MINIMUM LETHAL EXPOSURE
- The oral dose of chromium(VI) which has been estimated to cause death in humans is from one to three grams (HSDB, 2001).
MAXIMUM TOLERATED EXPOSURE
After drinking a 5 ppm solution of chromium(VI) on an empty stomach, a volunteer noted mild nausea; this did not occur with solutions of 2.5-3.5 ppm (HSDB, 2001). Exposure to zinc chromate through inhalation and/or ingestion can cause cough, redness of the eyes (in the case of exposure to the dust), abdominal pain, nausea, diarrhea and vomiting (CHRIS, 2001; (ILO , 1998). Exposure to zinc chromate has been reported to cause dermatitis, though these instances are thought to be rare (HSDB, 2001).
Bronchial carcinomas developed in three zinc chromate paint workers following 6 to 9 years occupational exposure to approximately 0.5-1.5 mg/m(3) zinc chromate dust (ACGIH, 1991). A family drank water containing up to 25 ppm of chromium(VI) for three years with no adverse effects (HSDB, 2001). Nausea was noted in a volunteer who drank a 10 ppm solution of chromium(VI) as his only fluid for a period of 15 days. A total of 235 ppm was ingested (HSDB, 2001). Refer to the "CHROMIUM VI" HAZARDTEXT(R) Management for more information.

CONTAINMENT/WASTE TREATMENT OPTIONS
SPILL OR LEAK PRECAUTIONS - EMERGENCY RESPONSE GUIDEBOOK, GUIDE 171 (ERG, 2004) Do not touch or walk through spilled material. Stop leak if you can do it without risk. Prevent dust cloud. Avoid inhalation of asbestos dust.
RECOMMENDED PROTECTIVE CLOTHING - EMERGENCY RESPONSE GUIDEBOOK, GUIDE 171 (ERG, 2004) Consult all existing state and federal regulations regarding hazardous waste disposal prior to disposing of zinc chromate and/or materials contaminated with it (HSDB, 2001).
SMALL SPILL PRECAUTIONS - EMERGENCY RESPONSE GUIDEBOOK, GUIDE 171 (ERG, 2004) SMALL DRY SPILL PRECAUTIONS - EMERGENCY RESPONSE GUIDEBOOK, GUIDE 171 (ERG, 2004) Restrict access to area of zinc chromate spill to those wearing appropriate protective equipment until clean-up is complete (Sittig, 1991). Wet methods of cleaning up solid zinc chromate spills are preferable, though vacuum cleaning is an acceptable alternative. Spills should be removed immediately to prevent generation of dusts (HSDB, 2001; (ILO , 1998).
LARGE SPILL PRECAUTIONS - EMERGENCY RESPONSE GUIDEBOOK, GUIDE 171 (ERG, 2004) Dike far ahead of liquid spill for later disposal. Cover powder spill with plastic sheet or tarp to minimize spreading. Prevent entry into waterways, sewers, basements or confined areas.
Restrict access to area of zinc chromate spill to those wearing appropriate protective equipment until clean-up in complete (Sittig, 1991).
Route wastes to a metal reclamation facility (OHM/TADS, 2001). Waste management activities associated with material disposition are unique to individual situations. Proper waste characterization and decisions regarding waste management should be coordinated with the appropriate local, state, or federal authorities to ensure compliance with all applicable rules and regulations.
-ENVIRONMENTAL HAZARD MANAGEMENT
POLLUTION HAZARD
- Contamination of water sources results from the use of chromates as corrosion inhibitors (HSDB, 2001).
- In waters contaminated with zinc chromate, zinc will eventually precipitate as a basic salt but chromates can remain in solution indefinitely (OHM/TADS, 2001).
- Sewage organisms may be inhibited by as little as 1 ppm of zinc. Concentrations greater than 20 mg/L were found to have a toxic effect on activated sludge (OHM/TADS, 2001).
- Refer to the "CHROMIUM VI" HAZARDTEXT(R) Management for more information.
ENVIRONMENTAL FATE AND KINETICS
SURFACE WATER Hexavalent chromium rarely occurs in nature, apart from anthopogenic sources, because it is readily reduced by oxidizable organic matter. However, once in water, hexavalent chromium frequently remains unchanged because of low concentration of reducing matter (HSDB, 2001). In waters contaminated with zinc chromate, zinc will eventually precipitate as a basic salt but chromates can remain in solution indefinitely (OHM/TADS, 2001). Refer to the "CHROMIUM VI" HAZARDTEXT(R) Management for more information.
OTHER Zinc has been seen to adsorb to river sediment (OHM/TADS, 2001). Soil pH is a major factor in zinc uptake; high pH, organic chelates and phosphate reduce mobility (OHM/TADS, 2001). Refer to the "CHROMIUM VI" HAZARDTEXT(R) Management for more information.
