Health Hazard Data

Routes of Entry: Inhalation, Ingestion, Eyes, Skin.

Health Hazards:

1. Styrene-Butyl Acrylate Copolymer

Subcutaneous implantation of polymeric styrene powder in rats has induced tumors at the site of implantation.

2. Carbon black

(Group 3 “Not Classifiable”; IARC)

Overexposure to carbon black is associated with causing irritation, conjunctivitis, and corneal hypoplasia of the eyes; minor irritation and eczema of the skin; and irritation and bronchitis. Long-term inhalation exposure may be associated with causing lung cancer.

3. Polypropylene

(Group 3 “Not Classifiable”; IARC)

Subcutaneous implantation of polypropylene powder in rats has induced tumors at the site of implantation.

4. Amorphous Fumed Silica

(Group 3 “Not Classifiable”; IARC)

Overexposure to amorphous silica has been associated with causing irritation of the lungs and pneumoconiosis. Long-term inhalation exposure may be associated with producing tumors in laboratory animals.
