The Kingsford Manufacturing For Medical Emergencies call: Company (800) 446-1014 1221 Broadway For Transportation Emergencies Chemtrac Oakland, CA 94612 (800) 424-9300 Vapors may cause irritation to the nose, throat, and respiratory tract. Repeated or prolonged exposure to concentrations above the Worker Exposure Limit may cause central nervous system depression (e.g dizziness, weakness, nausea, headaches and/or unconsciousness). Solvents similar to those contained in this product have caused adverse kidney effects in male rats after prolonged and repeated inhalation exposure. Reports have associated repeated and prolonged occupational exposure to solvents with permanent brain and nervous system damage Dust may irritate eyes. Inhalation of dust may irritate nose and throat. Repeated or prolonged overexposure to the dust may cause coughing, shortness of breath, and occupational lung disease. Wood dust is a possible sensitizer. Studies have linked wood dust to nasal cancer in furniture industry workers. Woodworkers in the building industry (e.g. carpenters) do not appear to have this increased risk. Due to the product form and typical use conditions, significant dust exposures are unlikely, and, therefore, the potential for any chronic effects is low CARBON MONOXIDE HAZARD Burning charcoal inside without adequate ventilation can kill you. It gives off carbon monoxide, which has no odor. NEVER burn charcoal inside homes, vehicles or tents Preexisting eye, skin, and respiratory disorders may be aggravated by exposure to this product. FIRST AID: INHALATION: Remove to fresh air. If irritation or breathing problems develop, call a physician n EYE CONTACT: Flush eyes thoroughly with water for at least 15 minutes. If irritation persists, call a physician. SEP 19 2014 SKIN CONTACT: Wash skin with soap and water. INGESTION: Drink a glassful of water. Call a physician. n ern.1-rA a 1 1117-A t -I-LJ Ingredient Concentration Worker Exposure Limit Hydrocarbon solvent 10-20% 100 ppm - TLV-TWAa b CAS # 8052-41-3 500 ppm - PEL-TWAbc CAS # 6474247-8 50 ppm - TLV -TWA' CAS # 64742-88-7 Char dust varies 2 mg/m3 - TLV -TWA" CAS # 16291-96-6 (respirable dust) Limestone < 15% 10 mg/m3 - TLV-TWA1 CAS # 1317-65-3 (total dust) 15 mg/m3 - PEL-TWAc (total dust) 5 mg/m3 - PEL-TWA` (respirable fraction) Sawdust < 8% 1 mg/m3 - TLV-TWA1 'TLV -TWA = ACGIH Threshold Limit Value -Time Weighted Average. °Based on the ACGIH TLV -TWA for Stoddard solvent. cPEL-TWA = OSHA Permissible Exposure Limit -Time Weighted Average. °Clorox observes a 50 ppm exposure limit in its facilities. eBased on the ACGIH TLV -TWA for coal dust. Based on the ACGIH TLV -TWA for wood dust from hardwoods IARC Monographs (Volume 62, 1995) state that there is sufficient evidence of the carcinogenicity of wood dust in humans and inadequate evidence of its carcinogenicity in animals. IARC classification: Group 1. None of the other materials in this product are on the IARC, OSHA, or NTP carcinogen lists. Char dust is produced by briquet breakage. Thus, the concentration will vary based on the amount of breakage.
