Germ cell mutagenicity
Not classified based on available information.
Carcinogenicity
May cause cancer.
In 1997, IARC (the International Agency for Research on Cancer) concluded that
crystalline silica inhaled from occupational sources can cause lung cancer in
humans. However in making the overall evaluation, IARC noted that
"carcinogenicity was not detected in all industrial circumstances studied.
Carcinogenicity may be dependent on inherent characteristics of the crystalline
silica or on external factors affecting its biological activity or distribution of its
polymorphs." (IARC Monographs on the evaluation of the carcinogenic risks of
chemicals to humans, Silica, silicates dust and organic fibres, 1997, Vol. 68, IARC,
Lyon, France.) In June 2003, SCOEL (the EU Scientific Committee on Occupational
Exposure Limits) concluded that the main effect in humans of the inhalation of
respirable crystalline silica dust is silicosis. "There is sufficient information to
conclude that the relative risk of lung cancer is increased in persons with silicosis
(and, apparently, not in employees without silicosis exposed to silica dust in
quarries and in the ceramic industry). Therefore, preventing the onset of silicosis
will also reduce the cancer risk..." (SCOEL SUM Doc 94-final, June 2003) According
to the current state of the art, worker protection against silicosis can be
consistently assured by respecting the existing regulatory occupational exposure
limits. Occupational exposure to respirable dust and respirable crystalline silica
should be monitored and controlled.

Not listed
Reproductive toxicity
Not classified based on available information.
Specific target organ toxicity –
single exposure
Not classified based on available information.
Specific target organ toxicity –
repeated exposure
Causes damage to organs (lungs) through prolonged or repeated exposure if
inhaled. Once sensitized, a severe allergic reaction may occur when subsequently
exposed to very low levels.
Aspiration hazard
Due to the physical form of the product it is not an aspiration hazard.
Chronic effects
Prolonged or repeated exposure may cause lung injury and may result in delayed
lung disease (silicosis). May cause skin disorders if contact is repeated or prolonged.
Irritancy may happen if hardened product is abraded, ground, etc.
12 ECOLOGICAL INFORMATION
Ecotoxicity
The product is not classified as environmentally hazardous. However, this does not
exclude the possibility that large or frequent spills can have a harmful or damaging
effect on the environment.
