Section 2
SECTION 2: Hazards identification
Eyes and skin: Mild mechanical irritant Inhalation: May release fibrous dust Irritant effects: Mechanical irritant to skin, eyes and upper respiratory system may result from exposure. Chronic respiratory health effects: Refractory ceramic fibres belong to a group of fibres classified under Directive 97/69/EC as a category 2 carcinogen (“substances which should be regarded as if they are carcinogenc to human”). Based on results of some animals studies there is a concern that excessive dust exposure may cause fibrosis and cancer of the lung or the pleura. This has not been confirmed by human data.
