Section 2
SECTION 2: Hazards identification
Ceramic slabs are made with a mixtures of predominately Clays,Sands, Feldspar and other naturally-occurring mineral, that have been mixed with water and fired in a very high temperature kiln (> 1200°C - >2190°F). The finished, fired slabs are odorless, stable, non-flammable, and pose no immediate hazard to health. If dust is produced by cutting slabs during installation or if dust is produced by any other operations (including demolition/removal projects) respiratory, hand and eye protection may be needed to prevent excess exposure to airborne particulates; only in this particular case an hazard to health could arise due to breathable crystalline silica. Emergency Overview (dust/breathable crystalline silica): Danger! Lung injury and Cancer GHS Classification (Global Harmonized Standard Classification): Carcinogenicity Category 1A (H350) • Specific target organ toxicity, single exposure; Respiratory tract irritation - Category 3 (H335) • Specific target organ toxicity, repeated exposure - Category 1A (H372) GHS Label, Hazards and Precautionary Statements GHS Pictogram: Crystalline Silica: Category 3 (Respiratory tract irritation) (H335) Category 1A(Carcinogenicity)(H372) Label Signal Word: Danger
