If irritation or redness develops, seek medical attention. SK IN C O N TA C T: Usually of no general concern. Broken skin can be cleansed with mild soap and water. If irritation or redness develops and persists, seek m edical attention. IN H A LA TIO N (B R E A TH IN G ): Primary route of entry. If irritation of nose or throat develops, move away from source of exposure and Into fresh air. If irritation persists, seek medical attention. If victim is not breathing or breathing difficulties develop, artificial respiration or oxygen should be administered by qualified personnel. Seek im m ediate m edical attention. IN G E S TIO N (S W A LLO W IN G ): No treatm ent necessary. SECTION V - POTENTIAL ADVERSE EFFECTSI f p i f EYE C O N TA C T: As with most dusts or particulate m aterials, talc can cause tem porary discomfort and irritation if accidently introduced into the eye. S K IN C O N TA C T: No adverse effects are known as a consequence of application to unbroken skin.. IN H A LA TIO N (B R E A TH IN G ): Primary route of entry. Symptoms of acute accidental exposure would be non-specific and sim ilar to the inhalation of any dust. Such symptoms might include paroxysmal coughing, w heezing, difficult breathing and upper respiratory tract irritation. IN G E S TIO N (S W A LLO W IN G ): No adverse effects expected. EFFEC TS O F R EP E A TE D O V E R E X P O S U R E : There are indications that a relatively mild pneumoconiosis can develop over 10-40 years of occupational exposure as with any nuisance dust. Smoking and concomitant disease might impose an additional pulmonary burden which may alter the course of the p neum oconiosis. N O TES TO P H Y S IC IA N : There are no specific antidotes to acute overexposure. Treatm ent should be directed to the control of the symptoms and clinical condition. Individuals with active pulmonary disease should not be assigned to a heavy dust environment. Refer to Section IX for additional information. C A R C IN O G E N ITY : Talc is not listed as a carcinogen by the NTP; not regulated as a carcinogen by the OSHA; not listed by the IARC. FormGJG14(1-90)(Tate) ITA-LG 00343 Date Issued: March 1,1990 Page 3 of 5 SECTION V I-S P E C IA L PROTECTION INFORMATION V E N T IL A T IO N : If current ventilation practices are not adequate in maintaining airborne concentrations of talc below the TLV, additional ventilation or local exhaust systems may be required. R E S P IR A TO R Y P R O TE C TIO N : Avoid prolonged or repeated inhalation of dust. Use a N IO SH approved respirator as required to prevent overexposure. P R O TE C TIV E G LO V E S : Generally not required, but recomm ended for workers who suffer from derm atitis or are susceptible to irritation and dry skin. EYE PR O TE C TIO N : Safety glasses are the minimum eye protection; goggles should be worn when working in areas of potentially high dust concentrations. O TH ER P R O TE C TIV E EQ U IP M E N T: Eye wash stations or a source of clean w ater should be available in work area for flushing eyes.

Otherwise, sweep or vacuum up for disposal. C A U TIO N : The use of water washdown is not recomm ended unless the spilled material is already wet. Wet material on a walking surface will be extrem ely slippery. Wet spills should be throughly flushed with w ater until non-slippery. W A S TE D IS PO S A L M ETH O D : Dispose of in accordance with local, state and federal regulations. This material Is not a hazardous waste by RCRA criteria (40 CFR 261). Dry material can be landfilled; wet m aterial sewered, if dilute enough that high viscosity or gels will not cause a blockage.

Keep all floors, workstations, stairs and handrails clean and dry. Respirable dust levels should be monitored on a regularly scheduled basis. The American Industrial Hygene Association suggests that periodic physical examinations be given to those employees who might be exposed to high talc concentrations or average concentrations that approach the TWA.

If irritation or redness develops, seek m edical attention. SK IN C O N TA C T: Usually of no general concern. Broken skin can be cleansed with mild soap and water. If irritation or redness develops and persists, seek m edical attention. IN H A LA TIO N (B R E A TH IN G ): Primary route of entry. If irritation of nose o r throat develops, move away from source of exposure and into fresh air. If irritation persists, seek medical attention. If victim is not breathing or breathing difficulties develop, artificial respiration or oxygen should be administered by qualified personnel. Seek im mediate medical attention.

SK IN C O N TA C T: No adverse effects are known as a consequence of application to unbroken skin.. IN H A LA TIO N (B R E A TH IN G ): Primary route of entry. Symptoms of acute accidental exposure would be non-specific and similar to the inhalation of any dust. Such symptoms might include paroxysmal coughing, w heezing, difficult breathing and upper respiratory tract irritation. IN G E S TIO N (S W A LLO W IN G ): No adverse effects expected. EFFE C TS O F R EPEA TED O V E R E X P O S U R E : There are indications that a relatively mild pneumoconiosis can develop over 10-40 years of occupational exposure as with any nuisance dust. Smoking and concomitant disease might impose an additional pulmonary burden which may alter the course of the pneum oconiosis. NO TES TO P H Y S IC IA N : There are no specific antidotes to acute overexposure. Treatm ent should be directed to the control of the symptoms and clinical condition. Individuals with active pulmonary disease should not be assigned to a heavy dust environment. Refer to Section IXfor additional information. C A R C IN O G E N ITY : Talc is not listed as a carcinogen by the NTP; not regulated as a carcinogen by the OSHA; not listed by the IARC.

R ES P IR A TO R Y P R O TE C TIO N : Avoid prolonged or repeated inhalation of dust. Use a NIOSH approved respirator as required to prevent overexposure. P R O TE C TIV E G LO V E S : Generally not required, but recomm ended for workers who suffer from dermatitis o r are susceptible to irritation and dry skin. EYE P R O TE C TIO N : Safety glasses are the minimum eye protection: goggles should be worn when working in areas of potentially high dust concentrations.
