3. Hazards Identification (Most Important Hazard)
Adverse Human Health Effects : Not applicable in normal use.
Carcinogenicity :
Carbon Black was reclassified as a Group 2B by IARC in 1996 based on the result of only the inhalation study in rats.
However there was not observed the incidence of tumors on the test results on dermal or oral studies.
There will be no possibility to inhale the carbon black which will not be released from the product as a fine powder.

11. Toxicological Information
Acute Toxicity ;
- Acute Oral Toxicity：(not available)
- Acute Dermal Toxicity：not available
- Acute Inhalation Toxicity：not applicable
Sensitization ;
- Acute Skin Irritation(PII) ：not available
- Acute Eye Irritation ：not applied
- Acute Allergenic Effects ：non-skinsensitive
Specific Effects ;
- Carcinogenicity：
In 1996 IARC reevaluated Carbon Black as a Group 2B carcinogen (possible human carcinogen).
This evaluation is given to carbon black for which there is inadequate human evidence, but sufficient animal evidence.
The latter is based upon the development of lung tumors in rats receiving chronic inhalation exposures to free carbon black at levels that induce particle overload of the lung.
Studies performed in animal models other than rats have not demonstrated an association between carbon black and lung tumors.
Moreover, 2-years cancer bioassay using a typical toner preparation containing carbon black did not demonstrate an association between toner exposure and tumor development in rats.
