SECTION 2: Hazards identification

Emergency Overview Bronze. Non-sag gunnable paste. No serious effects anticipated under normal conditions of use. Vapor may irritate respiratory tract. Leave area to breathe fresh air. Avoid further overexposure. If symptoms persist, get medical attention. Acute Potential Health Effects/ Routes of Entry Inhalation No serious effects anticipated under normal conditions of use. Vapor may irritate respiratory tract. Eyes Slightly irritating. Ingestion May cause irritation to the mouth, throat and stomach. May cause gastrointestinal irritation, nausea, and vomiting. Skin Irritant effect may be delayed.

Medical Conditions Generally Aggravated by Exposure

Pre-existing eye, skin, liver, kidney, and respiratory disorders may be aggravated by exposure.

Potential chronic health

Prolonged or repeated exposure to xylene may cause defatting, drying, and irritation of the skin, dermatitis, central nervous system (CNS) effects, heart muscle sensitization and arrhythmia, hearing loss, and brain, liver, kidney damage. Xylene overexposure may affect fetal development. Inhalation of crystalline silica (quartz) can cause cancer based on animal data, and IARC concludes sufficient evidence in humans (Group 1). Prolonged and repeated overexposure to free crystalline silica dust above the TLV level may cause scarring of the lungs with cough and shortness of breath. A delayed lung injury, silicosis may result from breathing free silica. The International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC) has evaluated ethylbenzene and classified it as a possible human carcinogen (Group 2B) based on sufficient evidence for carcinogenicity in experimental animals, but inadequate evidence for cancer in exposed humans. Prolonged and repeated exposure to excessive airborne concentrations of talc can result in scarring of the lungs (pneumoconiosis) or the covering of the lungs (pleural thickening). Fillers are encapsulated and not expected to be released from product under normal conditions of use. Prolonged or repeated exposure to mineral spirits (petroleum naphtha or stoddard solvent) may cause defatting, drying, and irritation of the skin, dermatitis, central nervous system (CNS) effects, and adverse liver, kidney, and lung effects.
