Component Information/Information on Non-Hazardous Components:
Glass is a solid material produced by combining various raw materials (e.g.
oxide, carbonates, etc.), melting these components together, and cooling to a
solid having its own unique properties.
Processing of this article may produce dusts or fumes which are considered
hazardous under 29CFR 1910.1200 (Hazard communication).
**NOTE: This component is not a separate component; it is included in the
glass product.
3. Hazard Identification
Emergency Overview
This is a non-combustible, non-reactive solid material. It is supplied in the form of drawn sheets or powdered glass. Exposure to glass powder or
dusts may be irritating to eyes, nose and throat. At very high exposure levels, the dust may have effect on the lungs. The metallic elements contained
in the glass may be biologically available if ingested or inhaled and contain barium, which can affect the heart and lungs. Product also contains < 1
% arsenic which is specifically regulated by OSHA and designated as carcinogenic to humans. Use methods suitable to fight surrounding fire.
