Quartz (14808-60-7)
IARC group
1 - Carcinogenic to humans
National Toxicology Program (NTP) Status
2 - Known Human Carcinogens
Reproductive toxicity
:
Based on available data, the classification criteria are not met.
STOT-single exposure
:
Based on available data, the classification criteria are not met.
STOT-repeated exposure
:
Causes damage to organs through prolonged or repeated exposure. Respirable crystalline
silica in the form of quartz or cristobalite from occupational sources is listed by the International
Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC) and National Toxicology Program (NTP) as a lung
carcinogen. Prolonged exposure to respirable crystalline silica has been known to cause
silicosis, a lung disease, which may be disabling. While there may be a factor of individual
susceptibility to a given exposure to respirable silica dust, the risk of contracting silicosis and
the severity of the disease is clearly related to the amount of dust exposure and the length of
time (usually years) of exposure.
Aspiration hazard
:
Based on available data, the classification criteria are not met.
Symptoms/injuries after inhalation
:
May cause respiratory tract irritation.
Symptoms/injuries after skin contact
:
May cause skin irritation. Symptoms may include redness, drying, defatting and cracking of the skin.
Symptoms/injuries after eye contact
:
May cause eye irritation. Symptoms may include discomfort or pain, excess blinking and tear
production, with possible redness and swelling.
Symptoms/injuries after ingestion
:
May be harmful if swallowed. May cause stomach distress, nausea or vomiting.
