XI. Toxicological Information:
Carbon Black contains trace amounts of Polynuclear Aromatic Hydrocardons (PAH). In non-absorbed form, some PAHs have been
found to be carcinogens in certain animal studies, however, no correlating carcinogenic effect has been observed in humans due to
exposure to carbon black. Carbon black has not been listed as a carcinogen by the National Toxicology Program (NTP) or the
Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA). The International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC) has recently
reviewed carbon black and published a monograph changing its classification from insufficient evidence to make a determination to
possible carcinogen. The National Institute of Occupational Safety and Health (NIOSH) criteria document on carbon black
recommends that only carbon blacks with PAH levels greater than 0.1% even be considered carginogens. The carbon black used in
this product is certified to contain less than 0.1% of absorbed polynuclear aromatic hydrocarbons (PAH).
XII. Ecological Information:
Prevent from entering sewers or waterways. May be toxic to some aquatic life.
XIII. Disposal Considerations:
Disposal must be made in accordance with local, state, and federal regulations pursuant to 40 CFR part 261 ot the Resource
Conservation & Recovery Act (RCRA).
XIV. Transport Information:
Keep in closed container. Avoid ignition sources (heat, open flame, spark). Avoid incompatible materials. Avoid dust generation
and accumulation. Avoid contact with skin and eyes. Wash thoroughly after handling.
XV. Regulatory Information:
This material is subject to the reporting requirements of Section 313 of SARA Title III and 40 CFR Part 373.
