Safety Data Sheet
Skin: Cuts or scraps referenced above; if using elevated temperatures to soften the Coroplast
®
sheets, exposure to molten resin may cause thermal burns.
Ingestion: Dust or debris from cutting may irritate the throat, mouth and stomach
Inhalation: Inhalation of fine dust, from cutting or sanding, may cause irritation of the respiratory system;
inhalation of vapors from use of elevated temperatures may also cause irritation of the
respiratory system.
Chronic: Inhalation of fine dust is a potential carcinogen situation from respirable particles of carbon
black and/or titanium dioxide.
SIGNAL WORD: WARNING! Titanium dioxide and carbon black have been classified by IARC
as Group 2B carcinogens, possible human carcinogens, when they are inhaled as dusts. If
dusty conditions occur from these products (e.g. during cutting or sanding), AVOID breathing
dusts. The permissible exposure limit (PEL) for titanium dioxide (respirable dust) is 5 mg/m
3
.
The PEL for carbon black is 3.5 mg/m
