Section 3: Hazards Identification 

HMIS Rating: 
FLAMMABILITY = 1                                                       HEALTH = 1 
REACTIVITY = 0                                                            SPECIAL = none 

 
Health Hazards (Acute, Chronic, Immediate and Potential): Minimum irritation to respiratory tract may occur as with exposure to any non-
toxic dust. May cause gasping if inhaled.  Inhalation should be avoided.  May cause temporary eye discomfort. 
Health Hazards of Long Term exposure (Chronic): A manufacturer sponsored chronic inhalation study in rats using a special test toner 
revealed there were no lung changes at all in the lowest exposure level (1mg/m

3

), the most relevant level to potential human exposures.  A very 

slight degree of fibrosis was noted in 25% of the animals at the middle exposure level (4mg/m

3

), while a slight degree of fibrosis was observed 

at the highest exposure level (16mg/m

3

) in all animals.  These findings are attributed to “Lung Overloading”, a generic response to excessive 

amount of any dust retained in the lungs for a prolonged interval.  The special test toner was ten times more respirable than commercially 
available toner to comply with EPA testing protocol and would not function properly in Xerographic equipment.
