Potential health effects

Inhalation: Inhalation of airborne dusts may cause mechanical irritation of the upper respiratory tract. Eye Contact: Exposure to dust from this product can produce a drying sensation and mechanical irritation of the eyes. Skin Contact: Skin contact with dust from this product can produce a drying sensation and mechanical Irritation of the skin and mucous membranes. Ingestion: This material is not intended to be ingested (eaten). If ingested in large quantity, the material may produce mechanical irritation and blockage Acute Health Dust from this product is a physical irritant, and may cause temporary irritation or scratchiness of the throat and / or itching and redness of the eyes and skin. Chronic Health Some studies of long term amorphous silica dust exposures indicate a potential for decreased lung function. In surveyed studies, this effect is characterized as compounded by smoking. Additionally, surveyed studies characterize the decreased lung function effect as reversible on discontinuation of exposure. Per the fiberglass manufacturer, the fiberglass is considered textile grade and is not classified as a human carcinogenic by IARC (Group 3), ACGIH (Group A4) , NTP, or OSHA. Medical Excessive inhalation of dust may aggravate pre-existing chronic lung conditions Conditions including, but not limited to, bronchitis, emphysema, and asthma. Dermal contact Aggravated by may aggravate existing dermatitis. Exposure: CARCINOGENICITY Component ACGIH NTP IARC Continuous Filament Glass Fibers A4 Not Listed 3 Amorphous Silica NA Not Listed None SECTION 2 NOTES: This product is composed of synthetic amorphous silica dioxide, often referred to as silica gel or amorphous precipitated silica. Amorphous silica should not to be confused with crystalline silica. Epidemiological studies indicate low potential for adverse health effects from exposure to amorphous silica.
