| Cas # 1313-13-2 | |||||||||
| ACGIH: Not classifiable as a human carcinogen: Inadequate data on which to classify | |||||||||
| the agent in terms of carcinogencity in humans/animals. | |||||||||
| SYMPTOMS OF OVEREXPOSURE: | |||||||||
| Inhalation: Repeated prolonged exposure to trivalent compounds may cause delayed | |||||||||
| effects involving the respiratory system. | |||||||||
| Eye Contact: Mechanical irritation to the eye may occur such as watering, reddening | |||||||||
| do to exposure to fines. | |||||||||
| Skin Contact: Expected to be non irritating. | |||||||||
| Ingestion: Considered to be non-irritating, non-toxic if swallowed. | |||||||||
| ACGIH-TLVs | OSHA PELs | NOISHA RELs | |||||||
| Cobalt Oxide (Co3O4) | 0.02 mg/m3 | 0.5 mg/m3 | N/A | ||||||
| Cas # 1396-06-1 | |||||||||
| ACGIH: Animal carcinogen: Agent is carcinogenic in experimental animals at dose levels, by route(s) of | |||||||||
| administration at site, or histologic type, or by mechanism considered relevant to workers exposure. | |||||||||
| Available epidemiologis studies do not confirm an increased risk of cancer in humans except under | |||||||||
| common levels of exposure. | |||||||||
| SYMPTOMS OF OVEREXPOSURE: | |||||||||
| Inhalation: Prolonged inhalation of dust or metal dust, and fume or mist containing cobalt may | |||||||||
| cause serious respiratory illness. May cause an irritation of respiratory organs of sensitive persons | |||||||||
| resulting in obstruction of airways with shortness of breath. | |||||||||
| Eye Contact: May cause serious eye irritation. | |||||||||
| Skin Contact: Prolonged exposure may produce irritation | |||||||||
| Ingestion: Large amounts may cause irritation of the gastrointestinal tract, nausea, vomiting and | |||||||||
| diarrhea. | |||||||||

| Silica, Crystalline (SiO2) | 0.1 mg/m3 | 10 mg/m3 | 0.05 mg/m3 | ||||||
| Cas # 14808-60-7 | |||||||||
| SiO2 + 2 | |||||||||
| SYMPTOMS OF OVEREXPOSURE: | |||||||||
| Inhalation: | |||||||||
| a) Prolonged exposure to respirable crystalline silica (quartz) can cause Silicosis, a | |||||||||
| fibrosis (scarring) of the lungs. Silicosis may be progressive; it may lead to disability | |||||||||
| and death. Silicosis increases risk of Tuberculosis. | |||||||||
| b) Inhaled from occupational sources is classified as carcinogenic to humans. (cancer) | |||||||||
| c) There is evidence that exposure to respirable crystalline silica or that the disease | |||||||||
| Silicosis is associated with increased incidence of Sceroderma, an auto-immune | |||||||||
| disorder manifested by fibrosis (scarring) of the skin and internal organs. | |||||||||
| d) Thjere are several studies suggesting that exposure to respirable silica or that the | |||||||||
| disease Silicosis is associated with the increased incidence of kidney disorders. | |||||||||
| (Nephrotoxicity) | |||||||||
| Eye Contact: May cause abrasions of the cornea. | |||||||||
| Skin Contact: Not applicable | |||||||||
| Ingestion: Not applicable | |||||||||
| ACGIH-TLVs | OSHA PELs | NOISHA RELs | |||||||
| Zinc Oxide (ZnO) | 10 mg/m3 | 10 mg/m3(total) | 5 mg/m3 | ||||||
| Cas # 1314-13-2 | 5 mg/m3 (respirable) | ||||||||
| SYMPTOMS OF OVEREXPOSURE: | |||||||||
| Inhalation: High levels of dust may result in tightness of chest, metallic taste, cough, | |||||||||
| dizziness, fever, chills, headache, nausea, and dry throat. Chronic exposure may produce | |||||||||
| symptoms known as metal fume fever or "zinc shakes", an acute, self-limiting condition | |||||||||
| without recognized coomplications. Symptoms of metal fume fever include: chills, fever, | |||||||||
| muscular pain, nausea and vomiting. May aggravate respiratory conditions. | |||||||||
| Eye Contact: May cause irritation. | |||||||||
| Skin Contact: May cause irritation. | |||||||||
| Ingestion: May cause irritation to the gastro-intestinal tract. | |||||||||

| Cas # 1314-24-4 | 5 mg/m3 (Respirable) | 5 mg/m3 (respirable) | 15 min. C | ||||||
| SYMPTOMS OF OVEREXPOSURE: | |||||||||
| Inhalation: Acute inhalation to respirable dust which contains radioactive uranium, tohium and | |||||||||
| radium may cause lung cancer. | |||||||||
| Eye Contact: May cause irritation with discomfort, tearing or blurring of vision. | |||||||||
| Skin Contact: Not applicable. | |||||||||
| SECTION 5: Emergency and First Aid Procedures | |||||||||
