concluded that at higher temperatures roofing asphalt fumes are a potential occupational
carcinogen. If this product is heated or comes in contact with heated material, avoid
breathing fumes. This product may contain small amounts of polycyclic aromatic
hydrocarbons (PAH’s) which are recognized carcinogens in humans and experimental
animals. Mouse skin painting studies of roofing asphalt vapor concentrate have shown
evidence of tumor formation associated with localized skin irritation in recent studies.
Inhalation studies of high airborne concentrations of asphalt/bitumen fumes in rats and mice
produced bronchitis, pneumonitis, and lung changes such as fibrosis and cell damage.
