SECTION VI - TOXICOLOGICAL PROPERTIES

*** Routes of exposure and acute/chronic effects ****

Primary routes of entry:	Skin contact, eye contact, ingestion
Exposure limits: ACG1H TLV-TWA:	10 mg/m³ (total dust) for nuisance particles such as calcium carbonate; 0.1 mg/m³ for silica (quartz) (respirable dust).
Inhalation:	Inhalation of mists or spray may cause coughing or sneezing, mild respiratory irritation.
Skin and eyes:	Abrasiveness of filler material may cause eye and skin irritation.
Ingestion:	Ingestion of large amounts may cause gastrointestinal irritation, with nausea and possible vomiting.
Chronic effects:	Prolonged or repeated skin contact may cause drying or cracking of the skin. Carcinogenicity: IARC found limited evidence in humans and sufficient evidence in animals that inhalation of silica dust could contribute to lung cancer. These effects seem to be associated in humans with silicosis. Avoid grinding or sanding dry product without respiratory protection. Teratogenicity, mutagenicity, other reproductive effects: None known.
Sensitization to material:	Product is not known to cause allergies.
Synergisitic materials:	Not known.

SECTION VII - FIRST AID

Inhalation:	Remove victim to fresh air. If breathing difficulty does not improve rapidly, get patient to a doctor.
Skin:	Wash skin with mild soap and water. Rinse thoroughly. See a doctor if irritation persists.
Eyes:	Flush with plenty of water for at least 15 minutes. If irritation persists, get medical attention immediately.
Ingestion:	If a large amount is ingested, and if patient is conscious, give large quantities of water. Get medical attention. Never give anything by mouth if patient is unconscious.

SECTION VIII - PREVENTATIVE MEASURES

Spill, leak or release:	Scoop up material or absorb with rags, sand or vermilucite. Place in containers for disposal.
Waste disposal:	Consult federal, provincial and local regulations for specific disposal information.
* PROTECTIVE EQUIPMENT *
