2.3 Other hazards
Carbon fibers themselves are not classified as hazardous. However, in processing carbon fiber-reinforced materials (e.g. sawing, grinding, milling) fibrous particles can be released, which fulfill the WHO criteria for respirability, i.e. these fragments can penetrate the alveoli. Such fibers are classified under Technical Regulation for Hazardous Substances (TRGS) 905 as a category 2 carcinogenic substance (suspected carcinogenic substances). For this reason, suitable measures to minimize exposure must be implemented (enclosure and extraction). Assessment of the possible exposure at the workplace must be carried out by the user. This product does not contain a substance that has endocrine disrupting properties with respect to non-target organisms as no components meets the criteria.
