NTP: Wood dust is known to be a human carcinogen based on sufficient evidence of carcinogenicity from studies in humans.

NIOSH: Wood dust is listed as a potential occupational carcinogen.

IARC: Wood dust is carcinogenic to humans (Group 1). Titanium dioxide is possibly carcinogenic to humans (Group 2B).

ACGIH: Titanium dioxide listed as not classifiable (A4). Beech and oak wood dust are listed as confirmed human carcinogen (A1).

12. Ecological Information

General information: No testing is available for dust generated from the product. Available ecological

information for components is summarized.

Zinc borate: Borate and zinc occur naturally in seawater at average concentrations of 5

mg/L and at lower concentrations in fresh water; however it can be harmful to plants

and aquatic life in high concentrations. Care should be taken to minimize the amount

of zinc borate released into the environment.

Toxicity: Titanium dioxide >240 mg/L, 96-Hr. LC50 Cyprinodon variegatus (fish, estuary,

marine), (Du Pont de Nemours (Deutschland) GmbH, Bayer AG Leverkusen, In:

ICULID)

Zinc borate > 2.7 mg/L, 96-Hr. LC50 Oncorhynchus mykiss (rainbow trout)

> 355 mg/L, 96-Hr. LC50 Lepomis macrochirus (bluegill)

Persistence and degradability: Under certain conditions, zinc borate will slowly hydrolyze to form other inorganic

chemicals such as zinc hydroxide and boric acid.

Bio-accumulation potential: Not available

Mobility: Zinc borate is sparingly soluble in water and may be leachable through normal soil.

13. Disposal Considerations

Disposal methods: Do not dispose to sewer or environment. Observe all applicable federal, state, and local

regulations. Waste, as defined in Directive 2006/12/EC, is not subject to classification, labelling

and packaging requirements in 2008/1272/EC.

RCRA Waste Code: Does not meet RCRA criteria for US hazardous waste. Not listed and does not contain any TCLP

compounds.

14. Transport Information

UN Number: None. Also no CHRIS or DOT Hazard number.

Proper shipping name: Exterior Trim and Panels

Transport hazard classes: Not considered a hazardous classification

Packing group, if applicable: No specific hazardous material packing requirements
