Safety Note: Potassium Chromate is a highly hazardous inorganic chemical containing hexavalent chromium (Cr(VI)). It is toxic if swallowed, may be fatal if inhaled, and can cause severe skin burns, serious eye damage, and allergic skin reactions. It is also classified as a carcinogen, mutagen, and reproductive toxicant. Avoid inhalation of dust and all direct contact with the substance. Handle in a properly functioning chemical fume hood using appropriate chemical-resistant gloves, safety goggles, protective clothing, and other protective equipment specified by the supplier's SDS. Keep away from combustible materials, reducing agents, and incompatible substances. Store in a tightly closed, clearly labelled container in a designated chemical storage area. Prevent environmental release and follow the supplier's Safety Data Sheet (SDS) for proper handling, storage, and disposal.
