ACGIH TLV is 0.3 fibers amosite/cc, 0.2 fibers crocidolite/cc, 2 fibers chrysolite and other forms/cc; Ala. OSHA General Industry Standard 29CFR191Q.1001. OSHA Construction Standard 29CFR1926.58. --------------------------------------- POTENTIAL HEALTH EFFECTS --------------------------------------- This section includes possible adverse effects which could occur if this material is not handled in the recommended manner. These effects apply to stated material and may not apply to dilutions or formulations of that material. EYE - Mechanical injury only. SKIN - Mechanical injury only. - Shin absorption is unllhely due to physical properties. INGESTION - Single dose oral LD50 has not been determined. - Amounts Ingested incidental to industrial handling are not llhely to cause injury; however, ingestion of larger amounts may cause injury. ACUTE INHALATION EFFECTS - Excessive exposure to dust causes chronic inflammations of lung tissue and pleural membranes, as well as cancers, in both man and animals. SUBCHRONIC EFFECTS - Prolonged exposure to asbestos dust has been found to cause pulmonary fibrosis (asbestosis), which may be disabling and even fatal. CHRONIC EFFECTS / CARCINOGENICITY - Has been shown to cause cancer in humans. - For hazard communication purposes under OSHA Standard 29 CFR Part 1910.1200, this chemical is listed as a carcinogen by NT? and IARC.
