GREENFINE INTENSE

SECTION 2: Hazards identification

According to Regulation (EC) No. 1272/2008 (CLP) Classification of the substance or mixture

Contains

Crystalline Silica; Cristobalite (Silice Cristaline)

Other hazards which do not result in classification

Activated carbon (especially when wet) can deplete oxygen from air in enclosed spaces, and dangerously low levels of oxygen may result. Prior to entering a confined space that contains or previously contained activated carbon, the space should be evaluated for oxygen and carbon monoxide concentrations, and any other hazards, by a qualified person. This product contains less than 1 % crystalline silica (fine fraction) consisting of cristobalite (fine fraction) and quartz (fine fraction). Cristobalite CAS-No. 14464-46-1 EC No. 238-455-4 Quartz CAS-No. 14808-60-7 EC No. 238-878-4. Do not generate dust because airborne respirable crystalline silica may be generated.

2.1 Classification of the substance or mixture

Classification according to Regulation (EC) No. 1272/2008 [CLP] Not classified Adverse physicochemical, human health and environmental effects This product does not meet the criteria for classification as hazardous as defined in the Regulation EC 1272/2008. Depending on the type of handling and use (e.g. grinding, drying), airborne respirable crystalline silica may be generated. Prolonged and/or massive inhalation of respirable crystalline silica dust may cause lung fibrosis, commonly referred to as silicosis. Principal symptoms of silicosis are cough and breathlessness. Occupational exposure to respirable crystalline silica dust should be monitored and controlled.
