SECTION 2: Hazards identification
POLYHEXAMETHYLENE ADIPAMIDE In general, skin irritation has not been produced in human patch tests with Nylon 66. However, a small percentage of subjects may respond to prolonged contact with redness of skin. Significant skin permeation, and systemic toxicity, after contact appears unlikely. There are no reports of human sensitization. If particles of Nylon 66 contact the eye, mechanical irritation with tearing, pain or blurred vision may result. CARCINOGENICITY INFORMATION None of the components present in this material at concentrations equal to or greater than 0.1% are listed by IARC, NTP, OSHA or ACGIH as a carcinogen.
