can cause silicosis, a fibrosis (scarring) of the lungs. There is evidence that exposure to
respirable silica or the disease silicosis is associated with an increased incidence of
Scleroderma, tuberculosis and kidney disorders.
Crystalline silica is listed as carcinogenic according to IARC. ACGIH classified
crystalline silica as a suspected human carcinogen.
Portland cements are categorized as Health Hazard Serious Eye Damage/Eye Irritation
Category 1 and Serious Skin Category 2, because they form a strong alkaline solution
in water.
