Toxicological Information
=======================================================
Toxicological Information: THE INTERNATIONAL AGENCY FOR RESEARCH ON CANCER
(IARC) DETERMINED IN 1997 THAT "CRYSTALLINE SILICA INHALED IN THE FORM OF
QUARTZ OR CRYSTABALITE FROM OCCUPATIONAL SOURCES IS CARCINOGENIC TO HUMANS
(GR OUP 1)". ALSO, THE NATIONAL TOXICOLOGY PROGRAM (NTP) REPORTED IN 1991
THAT "SILICA, CRYSTALLINE (RESPIRABLE)" MAY BE REASONABLY ANTICIPATED TO BE A
CARCINOGEN. SILICA (SILICON DIOXIDE - SIO2) OCCURS I N CRYSTALLINE AND
NON-CRYSTALLINE (AMORPHOUS) FORMS. QUARTZ IS THE MOST COMMON FORM OF
NATURALLY OCCURRING CRYSTALLINE SILICA, BUT CRISTOBALITE AND TRIDYMITE ARE
ALSO FORMS FOUND IN REFRACTORY PRODUCT S. CRYSTALLINE (ECOLOGICAL INFO)
=======================================================
Ecological Information
=======================================================
Ecological: ACCIDENTAL RELEASE: NO INFORMATION HAS BEEN DEVELOPED REGARDING THE
ECOTOXICITY OR ENVIRONMENTAL FATE OF THIS PRODUCT. TOXICOLOGICAL INFO
(CONT): SILICA HAS LONG BEEN KNOWN TO CAUSE SILICOSIS, A FIBR ITIC LUNG
DISEASE. PARTICLE SIZE, CONCENTRATION & DURATION OF EXPOSURE ARE FACTORS
IN DETERMINING THE ATTACK RATE, LATENCY PERIOD, INCIDENCE, RATE OF
PROGRESSION & OUTCOME OF THIS DISEASE. A HIGHER AT TACH RATE AND SEVERITY
OF SILICOSIS IS SEEN WHERE EXPOSURE IS TO CRISTOBALITE OR TRIDYMITE. THIS IS
REFLECTED IN THE STANDARDS SET BY THE AMERICAN CONFERENCE OF GOVERNMENTAL
INDUSTRIAL HYGIENISTS (ACG IH) FOR THE THRESHOLD (TRANSPORT INFO)
