2.3 Other hazards
This product is physiologically inert in its massive form. However, user-generated dust and/or fumes may pose a physiological hazard if inhaled or ingested. Avoid inhalation of metal dusts and fumes. May cause an influenza-like illness. Avoid skin and eye contact with dusts to prevent mechanical irritation. User-generated dust is easily ignited and difficult to extinguish. Not a fire hazard unless in particle form. Suspensions of aluminum dust in air may pose a severe explosion hazard. Explosion/fire hazards may be present when (See sections 5, 7, and 10 for additional information): Dust and fines are dispersed in air Chips, dust or fines are in contact with water. Dust and fines are in contact with certain metal oxides (e.g., rust, copper oxide). Molten metal in contact with water/moisture or certain metal oxides (e.g., rust, copper oxide) Dust and fumes from processing can cause irritation to the eyes, skin and upper respiratory tract. Additional health effects from elevated temperature processing (e.g. welding, melting); Acute overexposures can cause metal fume fever (nausea, fever, chills, shortness of breath and malaise) and the accumulation of fluid in the lungs (pulmonary edema). Chronic overexposures can cause asthma, benign lung disease (siderosis) and lung cancer. Carcinogenicity and Reproductive Hazard: Product as shipped does not present any cancer or reproductive hazards. Dust from mechanical processing does not present any cancer hazards. It can present a reproductive hazard (manganese). Dust and fumes from welding or elevated temperature processing can present a reproductive hazard (manganese compounds, inorganic).
