Additional information
EUH210 — «Safety data sheet available on request». The alloys do not require a label if they do not present a danger to human health following inhalation, ingestion or contact with the skin or to te aquatic environment in the form in which they are placed on the market.
Other physicochemical hazards
High dust concentrations can causeskin/eye/respiratory system irritations. High dust concentrations can form, under certain conditions, a flammable/explosive mixture with air. Contact with acids or bases can generate flammable and/or noxious gas Danger to human health In bulk form, the product does not present any known health risk under the normal conditions of use and storage Eye contact: Dust can cause eye irritation and dryness due to mechanical action. At high temperatures, fumes that are irritating to the eyes can be generated. Skin contact Dust can cause skin irritation and dryness due to mechanical action. In clumps or granules, the product can cause abrasions or cuts. Prolonged and/or repeated exposure can cause skin rash (dermatitis) in particular cases. Inhalation Dust can cause irritation and dehydration of the mucus membranes due to mechanical action. Overexposure to manganese fumes or respirable dust can adversely affect the central nervous system (apathy, sleepiness, weakness, and postural tremors) and cause a syndrome known as manganism, characterized by headache, restlessness, spasms, and pain. At temperatures above the melting point, metal oxides can be released that can cause metal smoke fever, symptoms of which are chills, fever, malaise and muscle pain. Effects can also appear delayed. Swallowing This route of exposure is reasonably unexpected. In limited quantities, no adverse effects are expected. Significant quantities can cause gastrointestinal irritation.
Environmental hazards
In bulk form, the product does not present any known risk to the environment under the normal conditions of use and storage. The
2.1 Classification of the substance or mixture
The product is not classified as hazardous based on the requirements of EC Regulation n° 1272/2008 (CLP).
