Some persons may be sensitive to cashew resins and develop dermatitis-type problems. Dust of silica, graphite, carbon black, and coal can produce pneumoconiosis and other lung damage. Metal dusts can be Irritants of the eyes and upper respiratory system. There is little evidence of chronic industrial poisoning from iron, aluminum, and zinc dust. Carcinogenicity: NTP? -- IARC Monographs? -- OSHA Regulated? NO Signs and Symptoms of Exposure . Cashew resins skin eruptions similar in appearance to poison ivy. Pneumoconiosis - coughing, wheezing, shortness of breath, impaired pulmonary function. Dusts in eye may cause irritation. Gastrointestinal disturbances possible from Ingestion.

Measures as outlined In Section VIII should be followed If this occurs. Waste Disposal Method Hazardous ingredients: 40 CFR, Part 261, 262 and applicable State and Local regulations. > Other Precautions . Pre-employment screening for allergies and histories of skin sensitivities may be beneficial In determining persons sensitive to cashew materials. SECTION VIII - Control Measures Respiratory Protection ( Specify Type) N10gH approved for pneumoconiosis and dust with TLV not less than 0.05 mg/M3.

Eye protection Is good practice where dust is propelled by grinding or drilling activities. . Other Protective Clothing or Equipment .' Long sleeved shirts or other protective clothing may be beneficial to prevent skin contact of persons sensitive to cashew resins. Work/Hygienic Practices Employees should be properly instructed in the use of control measures as Indicated above when there Is a need for It. If dust from this product is produced, unnecessary exposures should be avoided by using a vacuum in place of dry brooming. Use wet method of cleaning for other surfaces.
