EMERGENCY OVERVIEW:
The product is a grey, refractory unshaped for installation. Slight health risk from inhalation of dust generated
during installation. Not a fire, spill or environmental hazard.
ACUTE EFFECTS
Eye contact: Dust particulate is a physical irritant.
Skin contact: Physical abrasion.
Inhalation: Inhalation of airborne particulate from mixing or gunning may irritate upper respiratory
system.
Ingestion: An unlikely route of exposure. If ingested in sufficient quantity, may cause gastrointestinal
disturbances. Symptoms will include irritation and may include nausea, vomiting and abdominal pain.
CHRONIC EFFECTS
Dust which may be generated from sawing, or crushing product during installation and from after service tear-
out may contain free/crystalline silica. The prolonged inhalation (usually years) of mineral dusts containing
free/crystalline silica may result in the development of a disabling pulmonary fibrosis known as silicosis; a
progressive, incapacitating and sometimes fatal lung disease. IARC has classified crystalline silica as a "Known
Human Carcinogen - Group 1". NTP lists respirable crystalline silica amongst substances which may
"reasonably be anticipated to be carcinogens". See Section 16 for safe "Removal After Service Precautions".

neoplastigen. CLASS OF COMPOUND(RTECS): Tumorigen; Mutagen; Human data. Human
systemic effects by inhalation: cough, dyspnea, liver effects. Listed by IARC as a
"known human carcinogen" Group 1. Listed by NTP. No LD50 in RTECS.
