Eyes
Potential health effects
EYES: Solid or dust causes irritation or corneal injury due to mechanical action. SKIN: Essentially nonirritating to skin. Mechanical injury only. Molten material may burn skin. INGESTION: Single dose oral LD50 has not been determined. Single dose oral toxicity is believed to be very low. Now hazards anticipated from ingestion incidental to industrial exposure. INHALATION: Dust may cause irritation to upper respiratory tract. At room temperature, exposure to vapors are unlikely due to physical properties, normal processing temperatures may generate vapors, which may cause irritation if ventilation is inadequate.
