2.1 Classification of the substance or mixture

Component Classified – None. GHS Classification in Accordance with 29 CFR 1910 (OSHA HCS) – Not Classified. Note: In its delivered state, the respirable particulate content of these products is at de minimis levels and incapable of causing harm under normal handling conditions or in case of extreme upset. Thus, these materials have been classified as non-hazardous for processing, shipping, and handling purposes. Applications which serve to crush, pulverize, grind, or fracture these materials could, however, generate hazardous levels of respirable particulate. As a result, and under these end use conditions or application scenarios, the user is cautioned to implement exposure controls and worker personal protective measures up to and until the time an exposure assessment is conducted, demonstrating that there is no human health risk and that occupational exposure levels are within regulatory limits.
