Physical Hazards: This product is not classified as flammable or combustible. It will burn in case of fire. Avoid contact with strong oxidizers such as chromate, bromate and nitrates. Routes of Exposure: Inhalation, dermal contact, incidental ingestion Inhalation: Excessive inhalation may cause irritation of the nose, throat and respiratory tract. Eye Contact: Mild irritant. Dermal Contact: Mild irritant, non-sensitizer. Ingestion: Not currently known. Chronic Effects: In a study in rats by chronic inhalation exposure to a typical toner, a mild to moderate degree of lung fibrosis was observed in 92% of the rats in the high concentration (16 mg/m3) exposure group, and a minimal to mild degree of fibrosis was noted in 22% of the animals in the middle (4 mg/m3) exposure group. These findings are attributed to "lung overloading", a general response to excessive amounts of any dust retained in the lungs for a prolonged period. Carcinogenicity: In 1996, the IARC classified carbon black as a Group 2B carcinogen (possible human carcinogen). In 2010, the IARC classified titanium dioxide as a Group 2B carcinogen (possible human carcinogen). Reproductive/Developmental: Not identified. Target Organs: Prolonged breathing of high concentrations may cause adverse effects on the respiratory system. Signs and Symptoms of Exposure: Prolonged exposure to dusts of this product may irritate the respiratory system. Medical Conditions Aggravated by Exposure to This Product: Respiratory disorders, such as asthma, may be aggravated by prolonged exposure to high concentrations of this product. FIRST AID MEASURES Eye Contact: Immediately flush eyes with plenty of water for at least 15 minutes. If irritation persists, call a physician. Skin Contact: Wash with soap and water. Wash clothing before reuse. If irritation occurs or is persistent, seek medical attention. Ingestion: Dilute stomach contents with several glasses of water. Inhalation: Remove from exposure area to fresh air immediately. Contact a physician if there is any difficulty in breathing or other signs of distress. FIRE FIGHTING MEASURES General Hazard: Product will burn in case of fire. Flash Point: Not applicable Flammable Limits: Not applicable Auto Ignition Temperature: Not applicable Flammability classification: Not applicable Extinguishing Media: Foam, halon, carbon dioxide, dry chemical & water fog. Unusual Fire & Explosion Hazard: Combustible powder. Dust of this product at sufficient concentrations can form explosive mixtures with air. Fire Fighting Procedures: Keep away from sources of ignition. Fight fire from upwind position if possible. Firefighters should wear self-contained breathing apparatus and full protective gear. Hazardous Combustion Products: Carbon monoxide, carbon dioxide and smoke. ACCIDENTAL RELEASE MEASURES Spills or Leaks: Vacuum-clean spilled toner and carefully transfer into sealable waste container. If no vacuum-cleaner is available, sweep slowly to minimize generation of dust during clean-up. Residue can be removed with soap and cold water. HANDLING AND STORAGE Handling: Avoid dust, keep away from ignition sources. Prevention of Fire and Explosion: This material is capable of creating a dust explosion. Keep away from heat, sparks & flame. Storage: Keep container in cool and dry area. Hygienic Practices: Avoid inhalation and ingestion. Avoid getting in eyes, on skin or clothing. Wash hands thoroughly after handling, and before eating, drinking, or smoking.
