(d)Numerical measures of toxicity (such as acute toxicity estimates)

Not available

(e)Whether the hazardous chemical is listed in the National Toxicology Program (NTP)
Report on Carcinogens (latest edition) or has been found to be a potential carcinogen
in the International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC) Monographs (latest edition), or by OSHA.
Titanium dioxide contained in this product are classified to Group 2B of IARC as the result of inhalation test in
use of rat.
But oral/skin test does not show carcinogenicity.
In the animal experiment with very high concentration of titanium dioxide (excessive burden of rat’s lungs
clearance mechanism (overload phenomenon)), the rat alone showed lung tumor. Under a normal use practice, the
concentration should be far lower than the above; and it is assumed that there is no such use.
Also, relation between respiratory disease and work exposure of titanium dioxide is not observed with
epidemiological survey.

Explanation of Hazardous Materials Identification System [HMIS]& National Fire Protection Association [NFPA]
Hazard Rating Systems:
Both the HMIS and NFPA systems use number from "0" to "4" to show the degree of hazard in an uncontrolled
situation:
0=Minimum Hazard 1=Slight Hazard 2=Moderate Hazard 3=Serious Hazard 4=Severe Hazard
Colors may also be used in both systems:
Blue=Health Hazard Red=Fire Hazard Yellow=Reactivity Hazard White=Indicate a special hazard
HMIS will specify any Personal Protective Equipment reqired [PPE],
NFPA will specify OX(oxidizer), Acid(acid), ALK(Alkali), COR(Corrosive), W(use no water), xx(Radioactive).
