CARBOPOL® ULTREZ 30 POLYMER [2014/2/7]
The LD50 in rats is > 10,000 mg/Kg. Based on data from components or similar materials.
Dermal
The LD50 in rabbits is > 2000 mg/Kg. Based on data from components or similar materials.
Inhalation
Avoid inhalation of dust. Animal studies indicate the inhalation of respirable polyacrylate dust may cause inflammatory changes in the lung.
Skin corrosion / irritation
May cause slight skin irritation. Does not meet Canadian D2B or EU R38 criteria. Based on data from components or similar materials. Contact dermatitis may
occur in sensitive individuals under extreme and unusual conditions of prolonged and repeated contact, such as high exposure accompanied by elevated
temperature and occlusion by clothing. This effect may be the result of the product's hygroscopic properties, abrasion, or pH.
Serious eye damage / irritation
Weak to moderate eye irritant. Does not meet Canadian D2B or EU R36 criteria. Based on data from components or similar materials. Particulates may cause
mechanical irritation. Solid particles (powder or dust) on the eye may cause pain and irritation.
Respiratory Irritation
If material is misted or if vapors are generated from heating, exposure may cause irritation of mucous membranes and the upper respiratory tract. Based on data
from components or similar materials. Breathing of dust may cause coughing, mucous production, and shortness of breath.
Respiratory or skin sensitization
Skin
No data available to indicate product or components may be a skin sensitizer.
Respiratory
No data available to indicate product or components may be respiratory sensitizers.
Germ cell mutagenicity
No data available to indicate product or any components present at greater than 0.1% are mutagenic or genotoxic.
Carcinogenicity
Not listed as a carcinogen or suspect carcinogen by NTP, IARC or OSHA.
Reproductive Toxicity
No data available to indicate either product or components present at greater than 0.1% that may cause reproductive toxicity.
STOT repeated exposure
A two-year inhalation study in rats exposed to a respirable, water-absorbent sodium polyacrylate dust resulted in lung effects such as inflammation, hyperplasia,
and tumors. There were no observed adverse effects at exposures of 0.05 mg/m3. In addition, long-term medical monitoring of potentially exposed workers has
not revealed lung effects such as those observed in the rat. However, the inhalation of respirable dusts should be avoided by implementing respiratory protection
measures and observing the recommended permissible exposure limit of 0.05 mg/m3.
Other information
Pre-existing skin conditions may be aggravated by prolonged or repeated exposure. Persons with sensitive airways (e.g., asthmatics) may react to vapors. This
material readily absorbs moisture and may become thick and gelatinous upon contact with mucous membranes of the eye, or upon inhalation into the nasal
passages.
