SECTION 2: Hazards identification
1272/2008 2.1 This product contains respirable quartz as an impurity and
2.1 Classification of the substance or mixture
therefore is classified as STOT RE1 according to criteria defined in the Regulation EC 1272/2008 and harmful according to criteria defined in Directive 67/548/EEC due to the potential for generation of airborne respirable crystalline silica. Depending on the type of handling and use (e.g. grinding, drying), airborne respirable crystalline silica may be generated. Prolonged and/or massive inhalation of respirable crystalline silica dust may cause lung fibrosis, commonly referred to as silicosis. Principal symptoms of silicosis are cough and breathlessness. Occupational exposure to respirable crystalline silica dust should be monitored and controlled. This product should be handled with care to avoid dust generation Regulation EC 1272/2008 DANGER : STOT RE1 H372: Causes damage to lung through prolonged or repeated exposure by inhalation.
67/548/EEC
Symbol letter: Xn Identification of danger: Harmful
