Potential health effects

ADDITIONAL HEALTH EFFECTS Read "ZYTEL" Molding Guide before using this product. POLYHEXAMETHYLENE ADIPAMIDE (Nylon 66) In general, skin irritation has not been produced in human patch tests with Nylon 66. However, a small percentage of subjects may respond to prolonged contact with redness of skin. Significant skin permeation, and systemic toxicity, after contact appears unlikely. There are no reports of human sensitization. If particles of Nylon 66 contact the eye, mechanical irritation with tearing, pain or blurred vision may result. CARBON BLACK Continued) Immediate effects of overexposure to Carbon Black by inhalation may include irritation of the nose, throat, and lungs with cough, difficulty breathing or shortness of breath. If particles from Carbon Black contact the eye, mechanical irritation with tearing, pain or blurred vision may result. Significant skin permeation, and systemic toxicity, after contact with Carbon Black appears unlikely. There are no reports of human sensitization. Epidemiologic studies demonstrate no significant risk of human cancer from exposure to Carbon Black. While some reports cite an increased incidence of pulmonary abnormalities, such as decreased pulmonary function and radiological changes among Carbon Black workers, other reports show no correlation between exposure and effects on pulmonary function or disease. Increased susceptibility to the effects of Carbon Black may be observed in persons with pre-existing disease of the lungs. Carcinogenicity Information
