Health Hazards (Acute and
Chronic) – This product has the potential for generation of
respirable dust during handling and use.
Dust may contain respirable crystalline silica. Overexposure to dust may result in
pneumocononiosis, a respiratory disease cause by inhalation of mineral dust,
which can lead to fibrotic changes to the lung tissue or silicosis, a
respiratory disease caused by inhalation of silica dust, which can lead to
inflammation and fibrosis of the lung tissue.
Occupational exposure to respirable dust and respirable crystalline silica
should be monitored and controlled. |

Signs and
Symptoms of Exposure: Eyes— Dust or powder may irritate eye tissue. Skin— Non-irritating to the skin. Inhalation—Repeated or prolonged inhalation may cause toxic
effects. Ingestion— No significant adverse effects are expected upon
ingestion of the product. |
||||||||
|
Toxicological Information— Overexposure to dust may result in
pneumocononiosis, a respiratory disease caused by inhalation of mineral dust,
which can lead to fibrotic changes to the lung tissue, or silicosis, a
respiratory disease cause by inhalation of silica dust, which can lead to
inflammation and fibrosis of the lung tissue. Acute Effects— Mild irritant to eyes (according to
the modified Kay & Calandra criteria)
Acute LD50: > 5,000 mg/kg, Rat, Oral. Chronic Effects— In 1997, IARC (the International
Agency for Research on Cancer) concluded that crystalline silica inhaled from
occupational sources can cause lung cancer in humans. However in making the
overall evaluation. IARC noted that
“carcinogenicity was not detected in all Industrial circumstanced
studied. Carcinogenicity may be
dependent on inherent characteristics of the crystalline silica or on
external factors affecting its biological activity of distribution of its
polymorph.” (IARC monographs on the evaluation of the carcinogenic risks of
chemicals to humans, Silica silicates dust and organic fibres, 1997, Vol. 68
IARC, Lyon, France) In 2003, SCOEL (the EU Scientific committee on
Committee on Occupational Exposure Limits) concluded that the main effect in
humans of the inhalation of respirable crystalline silica dust is
silicosis. There is sufficient
information to conclude that the relative risk of lung cancer is increased in
persons with silicosis (and, apparently, not in employees without silicosis
exposed to silica dust in quarries and in the ceramic industry). Therefore, preventing the onset of
silicosis will also reduce the cancer risk. (SCOEL SUM Doc 91 final, June
2003) |

|
Medical Conditions
Generally Aggravated –Individual with pulmonary and/or
respiratory disease including but not limited to asthma and bronchitis should
be precluded from exposure to dust. |
||||||||
|
Emergency and
First Aid Procedures. Inhalation—Remove to fresh air. If not breathing, give artificial
respiration or give oxygen by trained personnel. Get medical attention if needed. Skin—No special measures required. Get medical attention if irritation
develops or persists. Eyes—Flush eyes immediately wit large amounts of
water. If irritation persists get
medical attention. Ingestion— No special measure required. If ingestion of a large amount does occur,
seek medical attention. |

Section VII –
Precautions For Safe Handling and Use
|
||||||||
|
Steps to be
Taken in Case Material is Released or Spilled – Material can be slippery
when wet. Wear a dust mask if dust is
generated above exposure limits. Avoid
the generation of dust during clean up.
Collect dust of particulates using a vacuum cleaner with a HEPA
filter. Reduce airborne dust and
prevent scattering by moistening with water. |
||||||||
|
Disposable Considerations – Dispose in accordance
will all applicable regulations.
Material should be recycled if possible. |
||||||||
|
Precautions
to be Taken in Handling and Storing – Keep formation of
airborne dusts to a minimum. Avoid
breathing dust. Provide appropriate
exhaust ventilation at places where dust is formed. In case of insufficient ventilation, wear
suitable respiratory equipment. No
special storage conditions required.
No special restriction on storage with other products. Guard against dust accumulation of this
material. Keep in a cool,
well-ventilated place. |
||||||||
Section VIII –
Control Measures
|
||||||||
|
Respiratory
Protection (Specify Type) – Use a particulate filter respirator for
particulate concentrations exceeding the occupation exposure limit. |
||||||||
|
Ventilation – Use local exhaust as required maintaining
exposures below applicable occupational exposure limits (See Section II). |
||||||||
|
Protective
Gloves – No special protective
equipment required. |
Eye
Protection – Wear dust goggles. |
|||||||
|
Other
protective Clothing or Equipment – As appropriate for work
environment. Dusty clothing should be
laundered before reuse. Eye wash
fountain is recommended. |
||||||||
|
Work/Hygienic Practices – Observe good hygiene. Wash hands thoroughly after eating, drinking,
and using restrooms, etc. |
