CADMIUM CHLORIDE Chemical compatibility with O-rings, rubbers, & plastics
Cadmium chloride is a white crystalline compound with the chemical formula CdCl2. It is used in the manufacture of cadmium-based pigments, in electroplating, and as a reagent in laboratory analyses. Cadmium chloride is highly toxic and poses significant health risks, including respiratory and skin irritation. Proper handling, storage, and use of personal protective equipment (PPE) are essential to ensure safety.
