Cam oiient� LD' WO,ra.lVp�brma1PL��s�Win0 <br /> Aluminum Unknown -- — <br /> Likely Routes of Entry: None for Aluminum & alloys in their natural solid form. Prolonged skin contact with coated <br /> aluminum may cause skin irritation in sensitive individuals. Inhalation of metal particulate or elemental oxide fumes <br /> generated during welding, burning, grinding or machining may pose acute or chronic health effects. <br /> Eyes: High concentrations of dust may cause irritation to the eyes . Fumes can cause eye irritations. Ultraviolet <br /> radiation from welding can cause flash bums (welder's flash or pink eye) . <br /> Skin: May cause skin irritations. Prolonged skin contact with coated aluminum may cause skin irritation in sensitive <br /> individuals. Workers with anemia, kidney damage , digestive, respiratory, nervous systems, pregnant women and <br /> fertile females warrant particular attention . <br /> Inhalation : Dust may irritate nose and throat. If heated, aluminum fumes may cause metal fume fever, a delayed , <br /> benign , transient flu-like condition . <br /> Symptoms related to the physical and chemical characteristics : None for Aluminum & alloys in their natural <br /> solid state. <br /> Effects of acute exposure to material : <br /> Aluminum : Can cause skin and eye irritation . <br /> Effects of chronic exposure to material <br /> Aluminum : Chronic overexposure to aluminum can result in lung damage and has been associated with <br /> asthma-like syndrome. Accumulation of aluminum in the body may result in neurological damage, anemia and <br /> bone softening. Repeated overexposure to high levels of aluminum oxide may lead to pulmonary fibrosis , a <br /> progressive lung disorder. <br /> STOT (Single Exposure) : Can cause skin and eye irritation . <br /> STOT (Repeated Exposures) : Respiratory system. Allergic skin reactions. <br /> Mutagenicity of materiak N/A. <br /> Reproductive Effects: N/A <br /> Teratogenicity of Material : N/A <br /> Carcinogenicity of Material : <br /> Aluminum : Aluminum is not listed by the IARC as a carcinogen. However, the production of aluminum is <br /> classified by the IARC as Class 1 "Carcinogenic to Humans! <br /> Synergistic Materials: N/A <br /> Aspiration Hazard : No data. <br /> Sensitization of Material : Workers with skin sensitivity warrant particular attention , <br /> LDso (of Material): Not established <br /> LCso (of Material) : Not established <br /> Notes : <br /> • STOT — Specific Target Organ Toxicity <br /> • International Agency for Research on Cancer ( IARC) - Summaries & Evaluations (2008) . <br /> 5 <br />
