SECTION 2: Hazards identification

Quick Guide inhalation of product dust may damage lung, possible carcinogen Canada: WHMIS D2A U.S.A.: HMIS Health – 1, Fire – 0, Reactivity – 0 TOXICITY Effects, Acute Exposure Skin Contact no effect Skin Absorption nil Eye Contact dust may be a mechanical irritant Inhalation dust may be a mechanical irritant, causing coughing and/or sneezing Ingestion not known; probably no effect – not a route of industrial exposure Effects, Chronic Exposure General prolonged exposure to dust in iron ore miners has resulted in iron oxide accumulation in lungs; a form of benign pneumoconiosis has been associated with high levels of exposure to iron oxide dust. Chronic inhalation of kaolin may cause a particular type of pneumoconiosis called kaolinosis; pure kaolin is apparently not fibrogenic and does not induce debilitating silicosis; however, if it is contaminated with crystalline silica it may produce severe lung effects, including emphysema and pulmonary fibrosis due to the contaminating silica. Prolonged exposure to magnesium silicate by inhalation may cause talc pneumoconiosis (talcosis), which affects the lungs. Sensitizing not a sensitizer in humans or animals Carcinogen/Tumorigen iron oxide is not considered a tumorigen or a carcinogen in humans or animals crystalline silica is considered to be a human carcinogen and carbon black is considered a possible human carcinogen. Remaining components are neither tumorigens nor carcinogens in humans or animals Reproductive Effect no known effect in humans or animals Mutagen no known effect on humans or animals Synergistic With not known LD50 (oral) above 10,000 LD50 (skin) not known LC50 (inhalation) not known
