Section 2
SECTION 2: Hazards identification
Non-hazardous PRODUCT as an intact tile. Intact tiles (finished fired tiles) are odourless and non-flammable, and pose no hazard to health or the environment. In some processes (such as cutting, grinding, chipping or drilling, for example) dust can be released which may irritate the exposed areas due to its abrasive effect. Dust released as a result of the above processes contains respirable crystalline silica (SiO2) which by inhaling may lead to the development of acute or chronic silicosis (a nodular pulmonary fibrosis), depending on the quantity in haled and the time of exposure. The amount of respirable crystalline silica in the generated dust varies depending on its composition and the size of the generated particles. The size of the respirable crystalline silica particles is less than 4 µm. A preliminary study of a grinding process shows a percentage of respirable crystalline silica lower than 1%.
