11. TOXICOLOGICAL INFORMATION
Routes of Entry: Skin Contact, Eye Contact, Inhalation and Ingestion
Effects of Acute Exposure to Product:
• May cause eyes, skin and respiratory irritation, inflammation or severe chemical burns if direct contacted by
large amount of product.
• May cause skin thickening, cracking or fissuring if contacted to wet product or dry product with wet skin.
• May cause coughing, sneezing and shortness of breath if exposed in excess of occupational exposure limits.
Effects of Chronic Exposure to Product:
• Multiple skin exposure over weeks or months leading to eczema or dermatitis. Content of sensitizing Cr(VI) is
below 0.002% according to regulation.
• Exposure to crystalline silica may cause silicosis and serious lung disease.
• Repeated or prolonged inhalation of dust may lead to chronic respiratory irritation
• Sensitivity reactions may occur from prolonged and repeated exposure
Irritancy of Product: Can be irritating to eyes, skin, and respiratory tract.
Skin Sensitization: Can cause caustic burns and dermatitis when wet.
Respiratory Sensitization: Can cause chemical burn when wet. Respirable crystalline silica can cause silicosis and
serious lung disease.
