Potential health effects
EYES: Causes eye irritation. SKIN: May cause skin irritation. INGESTION: Not a likely route of entry. INHALATION: Do not breathe dust as it may cause permanent lung injury (Silicosis). The IARC has classified crystalline silica inhaled in the form of quartz or cristobalite carcinogenic to humans (Group I). US GHS Carcinogen Classification: WARNING Carcinogen, Category 1 H350: May Cause Cancer (Inhalation)
Medical Conditions Generally Aggravated by Exposure
The condition of individuals with lung disease (e.g., bronchitis, emphysema, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease) can be aggravated by exposure.
Principle Routes of Exposure
Inhalation TARGET ORGAN STATEMENT: Respiratory system, skin COMMENTS: Crystalline silica exists in several forms, the most common of which is quartz. If crystalline silica (quartz) is heated to more than 870oC (1600oF) it can change to a form of crystalline silica known as trydimite, and if crystalline silica (quartz) is heated to more than 1470oC (2680oF), it can change to a form of crystalline silica known as cristobalite. Crystalline silica as trydimite and cristobalite are more fibrogenic than crystalline silica as quartz.
