Other hazards which do not result in classification
WARNING: POSSIBLE CANCER HAZARD BY INHALATION DUE TO FIBER DIAMETER SIZE.
2.1 Classification of the substance or mixture
In 1988 the International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC) classified "ceramic fibers" as possible human carcinogens (Group 2b), and at that time, polycrystalline wool was included in this broad category of materials. See section 11 for more information. The Annual Report on Carcinogens prepared by the National Toxicology Program (NTP), (latest edition) classified “ceramic fibers (respirable size)” as reasonably anticipated to be carcinogens.
Precautionary statements
Do not handle until all safety instructions have been read and understood. Use respiratory protection as required; see section 8 of the Safety Data Sheet. If concerned about exposure, get medical advice. Store in a manner to minimize airborne dust. Dispose of waste in accordance with local, state and federal regulations.
Supplemental label elements
May cause temporary mechanical irritation to exposed eyes, skin or respiratory tract. Minimize exposure to airborne dust when machining. Mild mechanical irritation to skin, eyes and upper respiratory system may result from exposure. Effects are usually temporary.
