Permanence: Nickel azomethine yellow has excellent lightfastness.
Toxicity: Nickel azo yellow pigment is mildly toxic and often labelled hazardous. Avoid respiratory and skin exposure to pigment dust. It should be disposed of properly with other hazardous wastes, not washed down the sink.

Nickel is used heavily in steelmaking and many industrial processes and products.
History: Nickel azomethine yellow has been developed as an artist's pigment because it is closely matched to gamboge, a historic yellow.
