Hazard statements
May form combustible dust concentrations in air.
Precautionary statements
Keep away from all ignition sources including heat, sparks and flame. Prevent dust accumulations to minimize explosion hazard. Control dust exposures to below applicable occupational expo- sure limits.
2.3 Other hazards
A solid, black, odourless, insoluble, substance that can burn or smoulder at temperatures greater than 752ºF (400ºC, VDI 2263). Hazardous products of decomposition can include carbon monoxide, carbon dioxide, and oxides of sulphur. May cause reversible mechanical irritation to the eyes and respiratory tract, especially at concen- trations above the occupational exposure limit. Some grades of carbon black are sufficiently electrically non-conductive to allow a build-up of static charge during handling. Take measures to prevent the build-up of electrostatic charge. Inhalation Temporary discomfort to upper respiratory tract may occur due to mechanical irritation when ex- posures are above the occupational exposure limit. Skin contact May cause mechanical irritation, soiling, and skin drying. No cases of sensitization in humans have been reported. Eye contact High dust concentrations may cause mechanical irritation to eye. . Long-term exposure below the current occupational exposure limit of 3.5 mg/m3 (when measured as traditional total dust) may result in a small loss in one aspect of lung function (FEV1) over a working life-time. IARC listed: Group 2B (possibly carcinogenic to humans). Not listed as a carcinogen by NTP,
2.1 Classification of the substance or mixture
1910.1200) According to the criteria in OSHA HCS (2012) 29 CFR 1910.1200 for classifying hazardous sub- stances, Carbon Black is not classified for any toxicological or eco-toxicological endpoint. As a combustible dust it is designated by OSHA as a hazardous chemical. Not a hazardous substance or mixture according to the Globally Harmonised System (GHS). According to the criteria in GHS (UN) for classifying hazardous substances, Carbon Black is not classified for any physico-chemical, toxicological or eco-toxicological endpoint.
