Section 2
2.1 Classification of the substance or mixture
o Non-flammable brown solid grain or powder that is non-combustible and is stable. o Abrasive particulate may cause minor Eye Irritation and/or Skin Irritation. o Specific Target Organ Toxicity - May cause damage to lungs through prolonged or repeated exposure to dust. o Titanium Dioxide (TiO2) component is suspected of causing cancer via inhalation. Warning
Hazard statements
o Harmful if swallowed. o May cause minor skin or eye irritation. Particulate may scratch cornea or cause other mechanical eye injury. o In Inhaled; May cause respiratory irritation through single use, or cause damage to lungs through prolonged or repeated exposure to concentrations in excess of the PEL or TVL without respiratory protection. This may also decrease the ability of the lungs to clear particulate matter which may cause shortness of breath and increase susceptibility to respiratory disease. Minor component titanium dioxide is suspected of causing cancer via inhalation.
Prevention
o Wash hands thoroughly after use. o Wear protective gloves and eye/face protection. o Do not breathe dust. Do not use compressed air or dry sweeping to remove dust from work areas. o Wear respiratory protection for concentrations in excess of the PEL or TVL. o Store in dry area in closed containers. o Dispose of according to applicable federal, state and local regulation. FIRST AID: o If Swallowed: Call doctor if you feel unwell. o If on Skin: Wash with soap and water. Seek medical advice if symptoms persist. o If in Eyes: Flush with warm water for 15 minutes (remove contacts if possible).
