8(b) Appropriate Engineering Controls: Local exhaust ventilation should be used to control the emission of air contaminants. General dilution
ventilation may assist with the reduction of air contaminant concentrations. Emergency eye wash stations and deluge safety showers should be
available in the work area.
8(c) Individual Protection Measures:
Respiratory Protection: Seek professional advice prior to respirator selection and use. Follow OSHA respirator regulations
(29 CFR 1910.134) and, if necessary, use only a NIOSH-approved respirator. Select respirator based on its suitability to provide adequate
worker protection for given working conditions, level of airborne contamination, and presence of sufficient oxygen. Concentration in air of
the various contaminants determines the extent of respiratory protection needed. Half-face, negative-pressure, air-purifying respirator
equipped with P100 filter is acceptable for concentrations up to 10 times the exposure limit. Full-face, negative-pressure, air-purifying
respirator equipped with P100 filter is acceptable for concentrations up to 50 times the exposure limit. Protection by air-purifying negative-
pressure and powered air respirators is limited. Use a positive-pressure-demand, full-face, supplied air respirator or self contained breathing
apparatus (SCBA) for concentrations above 50 times the exposure limit. If exposure is above the IDLH (immediately dangerous to life or
health) for any of the constituents, or there is a possibility of an uncontrolled release or exposure levels are unknown, then use a positive-
demand, full-face, supplied air respirator with escape bottle or SCBA.
Warning! Air-purifying respirators both negative-pressure, and powered-air do not protect workers in oxygen-deficient atmospheres.
Eyes: Wear appropriate eye protection to prevent eye contact. For operations, which result in elevating the temperature of the product to or
above its melting point or result in the generation of airborne particulates, use safety glasses to prevent eye contact. Contact lenses should not
be worn where industrial exposures to this material are likely.
Skin: Wear appropriate personal protective clothing to prevent skin contact. For operations, which result in elevating the temperature of the
product to or above its melting point or result in the generation of airborne particulates, use protective clothing, and gloves to prevent skin
contact. Protective gloves should be worn as required for burning or handling operations.
Other protective equipment: An eyewash fountain and deluge shower should be readily available in the work area.

(covers Categories 1 and 2)
* NR Not Rated - Available data does not meet criteria for classification.
The Toxicological data listed below are presented regardless to classification criteria. Individual hazard classification categories where the
toxicological information has met or exceeded a classification criteria threshold are listed above.
a. No LC50 or LD50 has been established for Zinc Dross. The following data has been determined for the components:
Zinc: Rat LD50 > 2000 mg/kg
Aluminum: Rat LD50 > 15.9 g/kg (REACH)
b. No Skin (Dermal) Irritation data available for Zinc Dross as a mixture or its individual components.
c. No Eye Irritation data available for Zinc Dross as a mixture or its individual components
d. No Skin (Dermal)/Respiratory Sensitization data available for Zinc Dross as a mixture or its individual components.
e. No Aspiration Hazard data available for Zinc Dross as a mixture or its individual components.
f. No Germ Cell Mutagenicity data available for Zinc Dross as a mixture. The following Germ Cell Mutagenicity information was found for the
components:
Aluminum: IUCLID; ATSDR have found this ingredient is not mutagenic in vitro; but has marginal effects in vivo.
g. Carcinogenicity: IARC, NTP, and OSHA do not list Zinc Dross or its individual components as carcinogens.
h. No Toxic Reproduction data available for Zinc Dross as a mixture or its individual components.
i. No Specific Target Organ Toxicity (STOT) following a Single Exposure data available for Zinc Dross as a mixture. The following STOT
following a Single Exposure data was found for the components:
Aluminum: Repeated exposure associated with Asthma, fibrosis in lungs and encephalopathy in humans.
j. No Specific Target Organ Toxicity (STOT) following Repeated Exposure data was available for Zinc Dross as a whole. The following STOT
following Repeated Exposure data was found for the components:
Aluminum: Reviews have found chronic exposure to aluminum flake has been reported to cause pneumoconiosis in workers. Repeat oral exposure
to aluminum results in decrements in neurobehavioral function and development.
The above toxicity information was determined from available scientific sources to illustrate the prevailing posture of the scientific community. The scientific resources includes: The
American Conference of Governmental Industrial Hygienist (ACGIH) Documentation of the Threshold Limit Values (TLVs) and Biological Exposure indices (BEIs) with Other
Worldwide Occupational Exposure Values 2009, The International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC), The National Toxicology Program (NTP) updated documentation, the World
Health Organization (WHO) and other available resources, the International Uniform Chemical Information Database (IUCLID), European Union Risk Assessment Report (EU-RAR),
Concise International Chemical Assessment Documents (CICAD), European Union Scientific Committee for Occupational Exposure Limits (EU-SCOEL), Agency for Toxic Substances
and Disease Registry (ATSDR), Hazardous Substance Data Bank (HSDB), and International Programme on Chemical Safety (IPCS), European Union Classification, Labeling and
Packaging. (EU CPL), Regulation on Registration, Evaluation, Authorization and Restriction of Chemicals (REACH), International Uniform Chemical Information Database (IUCLID),
TOXicology Data NETwork (TOXNET), European Risk Assessment Reports (EU RAR).
The following health hazard information is provided regardless to classification criteria and is based on the individual component(s):
Acute Effects by Component:
ZINC: Not Reported/ Not Classified
ALUMINUM: Not Reported/ Not Classified
Delayed (chronic) Effects by Component:
ZINC: Zinc Residue is a low health risk by inhalation and should be treated as a nuisance dust. Inhalation of zinc oxide fumes may cause metal fume
fever, which is characterized by flu-like symptoms with metallic taste, fever, chills, cough, weakness, chest pain, muscle pain and increased white
blood cell count.
ALUMINUM: Chronic inhalation of finely divided powder has been reported to cause pulmonary fibrosis and emphysema. Repeated skin contact
has been associated with bleeding into the tissue, delayed hypersensitivity and granulomas. Chronic exposure to aluminum flake has been reported to
cause pneumoconiosis in workers. Repeat oral exposure to aluminum results in decrements in neurobehavioral function and development.
