Health hazards
No human health hazards were reported for polyethylene. Ingeneral, polymers are considered of low toxicological hazard.Because polyethylene has not been tested for toxicity effectscompletely, a caution is recommended. Eye and Skin Contact: May cause eye irritation due to nuisance dust. Molten product may cause thermal burns. Inhalation: Fumes or vapour from heated material may be toxic and/or irritating to eyes, skin, mucous membrane and respiratory tract.
