N-NITROSOHEXAMETHYLENEIMINE Chemical Properties,Usage,Production

Uses

N-Nitrosohexamethylenimine is a carcinogen.

Safety Profile

Poison by ingestion. Experimental teratogenic and reproductive effects. Questionable carcinogen with experimental neoplastigenic data. Mutation data reported. Many N-nitroso compounds are carcinogens. When heated to decomposition it emits very toxic fumes of NO, and SOx. See also N-NITROSO COMPOUNDS.
