SECTION 2: Hazards identification
EMERGENCY OVERVIEW *** Form-paste Color-black Odor-sweet May be harmful if swallowed. May cause eye, skin and respiratory tract irritation.
Potential health effects
Eye contact Irritating. May cause tearing, reddening and/or swelling. May injure eye tissue if not removed promptly. Skin Contact Severely irritating. Inhalation May cause irritations of the respiratory tract. If misted, causes irritation of mucous membranes, nose, eyes, and throat. May cause coughing and difficulty in breathing. Ingestion May be harmful if swallowed. May cause gastrointestinal irritation, nausea, vomiting, and diarrhea.
Health hazards
Some studies have linked exposure of carbon black dust to lung effects. IARC classifies carbon black as a Category 2B Carcinogen (known animal carcinogen, possible human carcinogen) based on inhalation studies. However, the manufacturers of carbon black state that epidemiologic studies of workers in the carbon black industry in the U.S. and W. Europe show no significant adverse health effects due to occupational exposure. Because this product is a free-flowing liquid or paste, dust inhalation is not an expected route of exposure.
