| SECTION 11 - TOXICOLOGICAL PROPERTIES |
|=========================================================================|
No product or component toxicological information is available.
Toxicological Test Data: No information.
ACUTE EFFECTS - EYE CONTACT: Contact may cause mechanical eye irritation.
ACUTE EFFECTS - SKIN CONTACT: Substance may cause slight skin irritation.
Repeated and prolonged contact may cause sensitisation.
ACUTE EFFECTS - INHALATION: Repeated and prolonged inhalation may be
harmful.
ACUTE EFFECTS - INGESTION: Not expected to present a hazard in normal
industrial use.
CHRONIC OVEREXPOSURE EFFECTS: *This product contains encapsulated nickel
powder. No exposure to free respirable nickel is anticipated during normal
use of this product. It should be noted, however, that IARC has listed
nickel as a possible cancer hazard, although IARC could not state with
certainty which forms of nickel are human carcinogens. Rodents exposed to
high levels of nickel powder via inhalation did not develop increased
incidences of malignant tumours.
