Section 11 -- TOXICOLOGY INFORMATION
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
CHRONIC HEALTH HAZARDS
No ingredient in this product is an IARC, NTP or OSHA listed carcinogen.
May cause an allergic skin reaction. Suspected of causing cancer. Although the
carbon black (CAS# 1333-86-4) is encapsulated by the silicone sealant, prolonged
overexposure to carbon black dust causes lung fibrosis. Although the titanium
dioxide (CAS# 13463-67-7) is encapsulated by the silicone sealant, prolonged
overexposure to titanium dioxide dust causes tightness pain in the chest,
coughing and difficulty breathing. The curing vapor, Methyl Ethyl Ketoxime
(CAS# 96-29-7), may cause drowsiness, injure blood, liver and may irritate or
harm nose, throat, lungs and eyes. Direct contact with eyes will irritate.
Direct contact with skin may irritate.
