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
