Section 2
SECTION 2: Hazards identification
EMERGENCY OVERVIEW: Brass and copper alloys in their solid state present no inhalation, ingestion or contact health hazard. However, inhaling dusts, fumes or mists which may be generated during certain manufacturing procedures (burning, melting, welding, sawing, brazing, grinding, and machining) may be hazardous to your health. Dusts may also be irritating to the unprotected skin or eyes. ID: ACUTE EFFECTS: Excessive exposure to dusts/fumes may cause irritation of eyes, nose and throat, Inhalation of dusts/fumes may result in metal fumes fever (metallic taste in mouth, dryness and irritation of throat, chills and fever).
Potential chronic health
Prolonged inhalation of fumes or dusts may caused a variety of adverse health effects to the respiratory system, including (but not necessarily limited to) lesions of the mucous membrane, bronchitis, pneumonia and cancers of the nasal cavity and respiratory tract. POTENTIAL HEALTH EFFECTS/MEDICAL CONDITIONS AGGRAVATED BY EXPOSURE: Any preexisting chronic respiratory condition (asthma, chronic bronchitis, emphysema).
Principle Routes of Exposure
Inhalation (dust/fumes/mists), contact with skin and eyes (dust/mist), ingestion (dusts).
