Carcinogenicity: From MSDS
Formaldehyde 50-00-0: POTENTIAL CANCER HAZARD. Rats chronically exposed to 14 ppm formaldehyde contracted nasal cancers. Based on animal data and limited epidemiological evidence, NTP and IARC have listed formaldehyde as a probable human carcinogen. OSHA regulates formaldehyde as a potential human carcinogen. May cause allergic skin reaction. Some reports suggest that formaldehyde may cause respiratory sensitization, such as asthma, and that pre-existing respiratory and skin disorders may be
aggravated by exposure. OSHA has identified 0.5 ppm as the "Action Level", 29CFR 1910.1048. Please refer to the OSHA Standard for guidance applicable to your specific operations.
Wood Flour: POTENTIAL CANCER HAZARD. Wood dust has been classified by IARC as a carcinogen to humans (Group 1). This classification is based primarily on IARC's evaluation of increased risk of occurrence of adenocarcinomas in the nasal cavities and paranasal sinuses associated with exposure to wood dust. Wood dust is not listed by NTP nor regulated by OSHA as a carcinogen. Depending on species, may cause allergic skin and respiratory reactions.
First Aid: From MSDS
INGESTION: If accidentally swallowed, dilute by drinking large quantities of water. Immediately contact poison control center or hospital emergency room for any other additional treatment directions.
INHALATION: Remove to fresh air.
SKIN: In case of irritation, flush with water.
