Toxicological information
Irritation / corrosion
Information on
:
calcium oxide
Assessment of irritating effects
:
Corrosive! Damages skin and eyes.
----------------------------------
Repeated dose toxicity
Information on:
crystalline silica
Assessment of repeated dose toxicity
:
Repeated inhalation exposure may affect certain organs.
T
he substance may cause increase in lung mass and
lung tissue changes after repeated inhalation.
This product may contain greater than 0.1% crystalline silica.
Repea
t
ed exposure to high concentration
s results
in silicosis, a lung disease characterized by coughing, difficult breathing, wheezing, scarring of the lungs, and
repeated, non-specific chest illnesses.
----------------------------------
Carcinogenicity
Information on:
Titanium dioxide
IAR
C (International Agency for Research on Cancer) has classified this substance as group 2B (The agent is
possibly carcinogenic to humans).
I
n long-term studies in rats in which the substance was given by inhalation, a
carcinogenic effect was observed.
Tumors were only observed in rats after chronic inhalative exposure to high
concentrations which caused sustained lung inflammation.
In long-term studies in rats and mice in which the
substance was given by feed, a carcinogenic effect was not observed.
Dermal exposure is not expected to be
carcinogenic.
Information on:
crystalline silica
In long-term studies in rats and mice in which the substance was given by feed, a carcinogenic effect was not
observed.
In long-term animal studies in which the substance was given by inhalation in high doses, a
carcinogenic effect was observed.
T
he substance and its compounds in the form of respirable dusts/aerosolsis
classified by the German MAK commision as a category 1 carcinogen (substances that cause cancer to
humans).
A c
arcinogenic effect cannot safely be ruled out.
The inhalation uptake of the alveolar fraction of the
fine dust may cause damage to the lungs.
T
he International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC) has
classified this substance as a Group 1 (known) human carcinogen.
T
he International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC) has classified this substance as a Group 1 (known)
human carcinogen.
NTP listed carcinogen
