Most Important Hazards: Contains SUSPECT CANCER HAZARD. Risk of cancer depends on route, duration and<br />

level of exposure. Prolonged or repeated exposure may cause lung damage. Inhalation may result in respiratory<br />

irritation.<br />

Potential Health Effects:<br />

Inhalation:<br />

Ingestion:<br />

Skin Contact:<br />

Eye Contact:<br />

Causes respiratory tract irritation. May cause disabling, progressive pulmonary<br />

fibrosis (silicosis) due to crystalline silica. Symptoms include cough, dyspnea,<br />

wheezing, and impairment of pulmonary function. Progression of symptoms can<br />

continue after dust exposure ceases.<br />

No adverse health effects are expected from swallowing.<br />

May cause mechanical injury.<br />

Large amounts of dust may cause mechanical irritation.<br />
