Potential health effects
INHALATION (acute): Breathing dust may cause nose, throat or lung irritation and choking. The described effect depends on the degree of exposure. INHALATION (chronic): Prolonged or repeated exposure may cause lung injury including silicosis. This product may contain crystalline silica. Crystalline silica has been classified by [ARC as a known human carcinogen. Some human studies indicate potential for lung cancer from crystalline silica exposure. Risk of injury depends on duration and level of exposure. Long term exposures which result in silicosis may result in additional health effects. EYE CONTACT (acute/chronic): May cause eye irritation, severe burns and damage fo comea. SKIN CONTACT (acute/chronic): May cause dry skin, redness, discomfort, irritation or severe burns. May produce allergic reaction potentially ‘associated with hexavalent chromium. Thickening of the skin (scleroderma) may be associated with exposure to high levels of crystalline silica. INGESTION (acute/chronic): Ingestion of large amounts may cause intestinal distress.
