2. HEALTH HAZARD INFORMATION


2.1 Health Effects - Acute

Swallowed

No significant health effects could be found.

Eye

Mechanical action arising from eye contact (action of dust) may cause slight temporary irritation of the mucosa.

Skin

Slightly irritative.

Inhaled

Irritant to mucous membranes and the respiratory tract.

2.2 Health Effects - Chronic

According to the present state of knowledge this pigment is physiologically harmless; under extreme conditions, however, mechanical action arising from eye contact (action of dust) may cause slight temporary irritation of the mucosa.

2.3 First Aid

Swallowed

If symptoms occur seek medical attention.

Eye

In case of eye contact rinse with plenty of water. If irritation of the eyes persists, consult a doctor (ophthalmologist).

Skin

Wash affected areas thoroughly with mild soap and water.

Inhaled

Remove from contaminated area immediately, avoid becoming a casualty. If NOT breathing apply artificial resuscitation.

First Aid Facilities

Ensure an eye bath and safety shower are available and ready for use.

2.5 Advice to Doctor

Treat symptomatically based on judgement of doctor and individual reactions of patient.

2.6 Toxicity Data

Toxicological tests on chemically identical products yielded the following

results :

Oral LD50 = >5000 mg/kg (Rat)


3. PRECAUTIONS FOR USE


3.1 Exposure Standards

No exposure standard has been established for this particular material, however the following is recommended for nuisance dust : TWA 10 mg/m3 (total dust) or 5 mg/m3 (respirable dust).

3.2 Engineering Controls

Ensure workplace is well ventilated to maintain airborne concentrations below standards.

3.3 Personal Protection

Eye protection : goggles Respiratory protection : dust-protection mask if the exposure limit is exceeded. Wash hands and face thoroughly after handling and before work breaks, eating, drinking, smoking and using toilet facilities.

3.4 Flammability

Material is non-flammable

4.3 Spills and Disposal

Spills

Avoid raising dust. Clean-up personnel should wear protective clothing including breathing apparatus/dust mask.

Disposal

May be disposed of in approved landfills provided local regulations are observed

4.4 FIRE AND EXPLOSION HAZARD

Fire / Explosion

Thermal decomposition : no decomposition when used as directed. Hazardous decomposition products : not applicable. Hazardous reactions : no hazardous reactions observed.

Extinguishing Media

Use equipment/media appropriate to surrounding fire conditions. No restriction in fire conditions.


5 OTHER INFORMATION


Other Information

Ecotoxicological tests on chemically identical products yielded the following results : Acute fish toxicity : Golden orfe (Leuciscus idus) LCo > 1000 mg/L Acute bacterial toxicity : No harmful effect on Pseudomonas putida > 1000 mg/L As the product is practically insoluble in water, it is separated in almost any filtration and sedimentation process.
