Health hazards
Primary Exposure Routes Primary: Nuisance dust - inhalation, irritation - skin and eye contact. Eye Contact: May cause irritation to the eyes. Eye irritation may be treated by flushing eyes with large amounts of water. If irritation persists, seek medical attention. Contact with hot product is abnormal and a possible emergency circumstance because of its adhesive and temperature features, the molten asphalt contact with eyes may cause physical eye damage due to adhesive properties as well as thermal burns. Seek medical attention immediately in case of eye contact with molten asphalt contact. Skin Contact: May cause irritation (itching) to the skin. Skin irritation may be treated by gently washing affected area with soap and warm water. Contact with molten asphalt can result in physical injury/damage and thermal burns. Seek medical attention immediately in case of molten asphalt contact. Ingestion: This product is not intended to be ingested. If ingested, it may cause irritation of the digestive system. Inhalation: May cause irritation of the upper respiratory tract. Acute exposure may irritate mucous membranes with tightness in chest, coughing, wheeziness, or congestion. Individuals affected should be moved to fresh air. Occupational exposures to asphalt, oxidized asphalt, silica and formaldehyde, which may occur from these products during abnormal conditions of use or emergencies, have been found to be probable or known human carcinogens, and may cause serious irreversible lung disease and other non-cancerous effects. See Section 11 of this document.
Acute Health Hazards
NIOSH has found that studies of workers exposed to asphalt fumes have repeatedly found irritation of the serous membranes of the conjunctivae (eye irritation) and the mucous membranes of the upper respiratory tract (nasal and throat irritation).
Medical Conditions Generally Aggravated by Exposure
Exposure to dust may aggravate pre-existing upper respiratory and lung diseases or conditions.
