Carcinogenicity

ACGIH: Silica, crystalline and trace residual Formaldehyde present in base emulsion are suspected human carcinogens. Monomers used in base emulsions are confirmed animal carcinogens with unknown relevance to humans.
OSHA: Trace residual Formaldehyde present in base emulsion viewed as a possible cancer hazard. Monomer used in base emulsion, a cancer hazard.
IARC: Trace residual Formaldehyde: Human carcinogen. Monomers in base emulsion: Possible carcinogen. Crystalline silica: human carcinogen.
NTP: Silica, crystalline; Known carcinogen. Trace residual Formaldehyde and various monomers used in polymerization of base emulsion: Anticipated carcinogens.
Product contains trace amounts of residual Formaldehyde. OSHA and NTP identify Formaldehyde as a potential carcinogen. IARC identifies Formaldehyde as a human carcinogen. Formaldehyde has been shown to cause mutations in a variety of in-vitro test systems, with human significance unknown. Rats have shown carcinogenic effects in respiratory system. Risk should be minimal when used with adequate ventilation. Maintain adequate ventilation to prevent exposure above OSHA exposure limits. Product contains trace amounts of Acrylonitrile. It is exempt from OSHA Acrylonitrile Standard 29 CFR 1910.1045. Acrylonitrile has been classified by IARC as possibly carcinogenic to humans, by OSHA as carcinogenic and by NTP as anticipated to be a human carcinogen. There is some evidence that breathing respirable crystalline silica or the disease silicosis is associated with an increased incidence of significant disease endpoints such as scleroderma (an immune system disorder manifested by fibrosis of the lungs, skin and other internal organs), rheumatoid arthritis, systemic lupus, erythematosus, sarcoidosis, chronic bronchitis, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), emphysema, chronic kidney disease and end-stage renal disease.

Handling information
