H Fiberglass wool and ceramic fiber
materials
WARNING
Inhalation of fiberglass wool and/or
ceramic fiber materials is a possible
cancer hazard. These materials can
also cause respiratory, skin and eye
irritation.
The state of California has listed the
airborne fibers of these materials as a
possible cancer hazard through
inhalation. When handling these
materials, special care must be applied.
Suppliers of ceramic fiber products
recommend the following first aid
measures:
- Respiratory tract (nose and throat)
irritation
If respiratory tract irritation develops,
move the person to a dust free
location.
- Eye irritation
If eyes become irritated, flush
immediately with large amounts of
lukewarm water for at least 15
minutes. Eyelids should be held away
from the eyeball to ensure thorough
rinsing. Do not rub eyes.
- Skin irritation
If skin becomes irritated, remove
soiled clothing. Do not rub or scratch
exposed skin. Wash area of contact
thoroughly with soap and water.
Using a skin cream or lotion after
washing may be helpful.
- Gastrointestinal irritation
If gastrointestinal tract irritation
develops, move the person to a dust
free environment.
