K4PPER5 <br />Safety Data Sheet <br />Material Name: CREOSOTE - PETROLEUM PRESSURE TREATED WOOD SDS ID: 00230493 <br />there were too few studies to evaluate cancer risks attributable to exposure to softwood alone and to any particular <br />species of wood. In view of the overall lack of consistent findings, IARC also concluded that there is no indication <br />that occupational exposure to wood dust has a causal role in cancers of the throat, lung, lymphatic and blood <br />systems, stomach, colon or rectum. PETROLEUM DISTILLATES, LIGHT CATALYTIC CRACKED: High <br />incidences of benign and malignant skin tumors have been reported in mouse skin application testing and IARC <br />reports there is sufficient evidence for the carcinogencity in animals of light catalytically cracked distillates. IARC <br />determined there is sufficient evidence for carcinogenicity in experimental animals of light and heavy vacuum <br />distillates, of light and heavy catalytically cracked distillates and of cracked residues (including heavy <br />thermocracked distillates/residues) from the refining of crude oil. Different woods produce different health effects <br />and there is evidence that wood from different trees of the same species can produce varying health effects. Woods <br />other than Western Red Cedar (WRC) seem unlikely to be responsible for large numbers of cases of respiratory <br />allergies. Other common wood dusts produce asthma/pulmonary effects that are less well described than the <br />responses to WRC. These other wood species (e.g., oak and pine) are considered somewhat allergenic. <br />Section 12 - ECOLOGICAL INFORMATION <br />Component Analysis - Aquatic Toxicity <br />COAL TAR CREOSOTE IF <br />8001-58-9 <br />Fish: <br />LC50 96 h Brachydanio rerio 2.6 - 6.6 mg/L [static ]; LC50 96 h <br />Oncorhynchus mykiss 0.57 mg/L [static ] <br />Invertebrate: <br />EC50 48 h Daphnia magna 1.04 mg/L IUCLID ; EC50 48 h Daphnia <br />magna 0.065 - 0.082 mg/L [Static ] EPA <br />Petroleum distillates, light <br />64741-59-9 <br />catalytic cracked <br />Fish: ::IFLC50 <br />96 h Brachydanio rerio 7.3 mg/L [semi -static ] <br />Persistence and Degradability <br />No information available for the product. <br />Bioaccumulative Potential <br />No information available for the product. <br />Mobility <br />No information available for the product. <br />Other Toxicity <br />No data available. <br />Section 13 - DISPOSAL CONSIDERATIONS <br />Disposal Methods <br />Dispose in accordance with all applicable regulations. Treated wood should not be burned in open fires or in stoves, <br />fireplaces or residential boilers, because toxic chemicals may be produced as part of the smoke and ashes. Treated <br />wood from commercial or industrial use (e.g., construction sites) may be burned only in commercial or industrial <br />incinerators or boilers in accordance with state and federal regulations.
