Section II - Emergency and First Aid
Primary Route of Entry: Symptoms of Overexposure:
Inhalation Minimal respiratory tract irritation may occur as with
Eyes: exposure to large amounts of any non-toxic dust.
Flush with water.
Skin: Medical Conditions Generally Aggravated by Exposure:
Wash with soap and water. None when used as described by product literature.
Inhalation:
Remove from exposure. Additional Information:
Ingestion: None.
Dilute stomach contents with several glasses of water.
Section III - Toxicology and Health Information
This material has been evaluated by Xerox Corporation.
Oral LD50: >34.6 g/kg (rats) practically non-toxic. TLV: 10 mg/m3 (total dust)
Dermal LD50: >5 g/kg (rabbits) practically non-toxic. PEL: 15 mg/m3 (total dust)
Inhalation LC50: >5.5 mg/l (rats, 4 hr exposure) practically non-toxic. 5 mg/m3 (respirable dust)
>22 mg/l (calculated 1 hr exposure) non-poisonous, DOT. STEL: N.E.
Eye Irritation: Not an irritant. Ceiling: N.E.
Skin Sensitization: Not a sensitizer. XEL1: 2.5 mg/m3 (total dust)
Skin Irritation: Not an irritant. 0.4 mg/m3 (respirable dust)
Human Patch: Non-irritating, non-sensitizing.
Mutagenicity: No mutagenicity detected in the Ames, WP2, and Micronucleus Assays.
Carcinogens: None present
Aquatic LC50: >1000 mg/l (fathead minnows) non-toxic.
Additional Information: The results obtained from a Xerox sponsored, Chronic Toner Inhalation Study, demonstrated no lung
change in rats for the lowest (1mg/m3) exposure level (i.e. the level most relevant to potential human exposure). A very slight degree
of fibrosis was noted in 25% of the animals at the middle (4mg/m3) exposure level, while a slight degree of fibrosis was noted in all the
animals at the highest (16 mg/m3) exposure level. These findings are attributed to "lung overloading", a generic response to excessive
amounts of any dust retained in the lungs for a prolonged period. This study was conducted using a special test toner to comply with
EPA testing protocol. The test toner was ten times more respirable than commercially available Xerox toner, and would not be
functionally suitable for Xerox equipment.

Special Fire Fighting Procedures: Avoid inhalation of smoke. Wear protective clothing and self-contained breathing apparatus.
Fire and Explosion Hazards: Toner is a combustible powder. Like most organic materials in powder form, it can form
explosive mixtures when dispersed in air.
Section VI -Reactivity Data
Stability: Stable
Hazardous Polymerization: Will Not Occur
Hazardous Decomposition Products: Products of combustion may be toxic. Avoid breathing smoke.
Incompatibility (Materials to Avoid): None known
Section VII - Special Protection Information
Respiratory Protection: None required when used as intended in Xerox equipment.
Eye Protection: None required when used as intended in Xerox equipment.
Protective Gloves: None required when used as intended in Xerox equipment.
Other: For use other than normal customer - operating procedures (such as in bulk toner processing
facilities), goggles and respirators may be required. For more information, contact Xerox.
Section VIII - Special Precautions
Handling and Storage: None
Conditions to Avoid: Avoid prolonged inhalation of excessive dust.
Section IX- Spill, Leak, and Disposal Procedures
For Spills or Leakage: Sweep up or vacuum spilled toner and carefully transfer into sealable waste container. Sweep slowly
to minimize generation of dust during clean-up. If a vacuum is used, the motor must be rated as dust
tight. A conductive hose bonded to the machine should be used to reduce static buildup (See Section
V). Residue can be removed with soap and cold water. Garments may be washed or dry cleaned,
after removal of loose toner.
Waste Disposal Method: This material is not a hazardous waste according to Federal Regulation 40 CFR 26. State and Local
requirements may, however, be more restrictive. Please consult with the appropriate State and Local
waste disposal authorities. Incinerate only in a closed container.
