Health Hazards: The ingredients are not listed in ACGIH (1986) and OSHA (1989) except carbon
black and paraffin wax
Carcinogenicity: In 1996 the IARC reevaluated carbon black as a Group 2B carcinogen (possible
human carcinogen). This classification is given to chemicals for which there is
inadequate human evidence, but sufficient animal evidence on which to base an
opinion of carcinogenicity. The classification is based upon the development of lung
tumors in rats receiving chronic inhalation exposures to free carbon black at levels
that induce particle overload of the lung. Studies performed in animal models other
than rats did not show any association between carbon black and lung tumors.
Signs and Symptoms of Exposure: not applicable
Medical Conditions Generally Aggravated by Exposure: not applicable
Emergency and First Aid Procedures: not applicable
