2.3 Other hazards
Mechanical irritation only Supplemental information based on route of entry: Skin contact: Repeated or prolonged contact may cause skin dryness as skin oils are absorbed. Skin absorption: N/A Eye contact: May irritate or injure eyes, mechanically. Inhalation Upper respiratory irritant May aggravate pre-existing respiratory conditions. Long-term inhalation of respirable crystalline silica can cause disabling lung disease (silicosis). Ingestion: LD50 not established, presumed over 10,000 mg/kg. Sensitization: Non-sensitizing. Emergency Overview: Coarse and fine particle size products represent inhalation hazards that can readily be controlled with appropriate dust protection equipment and techniques. Avoid processes that generate unnecessary dust.
