Safety and Specifications of ZnSe: The Essential Guide by KM Innovation USA - Safety Data Sheet

KM Innovation USA highlights the critical safety aspects and characteristics of ZnSe (Zinc Selenide), a key material in optical component manufacturing. This reddish-yellow, transparent solid is toxic if ingested or inhaled and may cause skin irritation, necessitating strict safety measures during handling, including the use of gloves, lab coats, and goggles.

ZnSe's stability is notable, with a high melting point of 1525°C and non-solubility in water. However, it reacts with oxidizing agents, leading to the formation of hydrogen selenide, and can impact the nervous system, requiring careful exposure management.

Environmentally, ZnSe poses risks to aquatic life and groundwater, urging responsible disposal. Transporting ZnSe follows Class 6.1 hazardous material guidelines to ensure safety.

KM Innovation USA is committed to supplying high-quality ZnSe, adhering to safety, environmental responsibility, and regulatory standards. This commitment ensures user and environmental safety and reflects the company’s ethos of sustainable, responsible practices.
