EXPOSURE LIMITS SOURCE Carbon black 6 - 8 1333-86-4 3.5mg/m3 3.5mg/m3 OSHA PEL ACGIH TLV Polyester resin 75214-60-7 not listed n/a Polyester resin <94 TSCA Confidential Trade Secret No. n/a 80100252-5001-P Wax 9003-07-0 not listed n/a Pigment 31714-55-3 not listed n/a *PEL as the product: 15mg/m3 (total dust), 5mg/m3 (respirable dust) *TLV as the product: 10mg/m3 (total dust), 5mg/m3 (respirable dust) Section 3: Hazards Identification Hazard Rating: FIRE = 1 HEALTH = 1 REACTIVITY = 0 SPECIAL = none Health Hazards (Acute, Chronic, Immediate and Potential): Minimum irritation to respiratory tract may occur as with exposure to any non-toxic dust. May cause gasping if inhaled. Inhalation should be avoided. May cause temporary eye discomfort. Health Hazards of Long Term exposure (Chronic): A manufacturer sponsored chronic inhalation study in rats using a special test toner revealed there were no lung changes at all in the lowest exposure level (1mg/m3), the most relevant level to potential human exposures. A very slight degree of fibrosis was noted in 25% of the animals at the middle exposure level (4mg/m3), while a slight degree of fibrosis was observed at the highest exposure level (16mg/m3) in all animals. These findings are attributed to “Lung Overloading”, a generic response to excessive amount of any dust retained in the lungs for a prolonged interval. The special test toner was ten times more respirable than commercially available toner to comply with EPA testing protocol and would not function properly in Xerographic equipment. Section 4: First Aid Measures Inhalation: Remove to fresh air if effects occur. local medical personnel Consult Eye Contact: In case of contact, immediately flush eyes with water for 5 minutes. Skin Contact: Wash with soap and water. Ingestion: Dilute stomach contents with water. Call a physician Section 5: Fire Fighting Measures Suitable extinguishing media: CO2, dry chemical, foam or water. Extinguishing media which may not be used for safety reasons: none 1 MATERIAL SAFETY DATA SHEET Page 2 of CP-312 Flash point : > 150°C (O.C.) This material will burn in case of fire. The decomposition products are CO and other decomposition products in case of incomplete combustion.. Avoid inhalation of smoke. Special protective equipment for fire fighters: wear self-contained breathing apparatus UEL: n/a LEL: 34.5/m3 Section 6: Accidental Release Measures Sweep up or clean up with an approved toner vacuum. Section 7: Handling and Storage Special Handling: Cleanse skin after contact before breaks or meals, and end of work day. Avoid inhalation. Special Storage: Keep out of reach of children. Store in a cool dry place. Section 8: Exposure Control and Personal Protection Information: Respiratory Protection: none required under normal use. Hand Protection: none required under normal use. Eye Protection: none required under normal use. Skin Protection: none required under normal use. Section 9: Physical and Chemical Properties CHARACTERISTICS: Appearance: Black Melting point: n/a Form: Fine powder Vapor pressure: n/a Odor: Practically odorless Vapor density: n/a Solubility in Water: Insoluble Evaporation rate: n/a Specific gravity: 1.2 Boiling point: n/a Section 10: Stability and Reactivity Conditions to avoid: Strong acid or alkaline Materials to avoid: none Stability: Stable Hazardous decomposition products: CO, phenol derivative at high temps. Section 11: Toxicological Information: Acute oral toxicity (rat) LDLO: 5.0 g/kg Ames Test result: Negative Carcinogenicity: In 1996, the IARC reevaluated carbon black as a GROUP 2B carcinogen (possible human carcinogen). This evaluation is given to carbon black for which there is inadequate human evidence, but sufficient animal evidence. The latter is based upon the development of lung tumors in rats receiving chronic inhalation exposures to free carbon black at a level that induce particle overload of the lungs. Studies performed in mice have not demonstrated an association between carbon black and lung tumors. Moreover, a two-year cancer bioassay using a typical toner preparation containing carbon black demonstrated no association between toner and tumor development in rats. Section 12: Environmental / Ecological Information None Section 13: Disposal Consideration Waste material should be disposed of in accordance with all federal, state and local environmental regulations. Do not incinerate. Section 14: Transportation Information None None Section 15: Regulatory Information Section 16: Miscellaneous Information On the basis of the data available to us, this toner is not a dangerous substance. One should, however , observe the usual precautionary measures for dealing with chemicals.
