Acute Toxicity
| Chemical Name | LC50 | LD50 (oral) | LD50 (dermal) |
| Silica, total quartz | 500 mg/kg (rat) |
Skin Corrosion/Irritation
May cause moderate or severe irritation based on information for closely related materials.
Serious Eye Damage/Irritation
May cause serious eye damage based on information for closely related materials.
STOT (Specific Target Organ Toxicity) – Single Exposure
Inhalation
May cause severe nose and throat irritation, severe lung injury.
Skin Absorption
No information was located.
Ingestion
May be harmful based on information for closely related materials.
Aspiration Hazard
Can cause lung damage if aspirated based on human experience.
STOT (Specific Target Organ Toxicity) – Repeated Exposure
Causes irritation of the respiratory system. Respiratory tract injury has been observed. Respirable crystalline silica in the form of quartz or cristobalite from occupational sources is listed by the International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC) and National Toxicology Program (NTP) as a lung carcinogen. Prolonged exposure to respirable crystalline silica has been known to cause silicosis, a lung disease, which may be disabling. While there may be a factor of individual susceptibility to a given exposure to respirable silica dust, the risk of contracting silicosis and the severity of the disease is clearly related to the amount of dust exposure and the length of time (usually years) of exposure.
Respiratory and/or Skin Sensitization
May cause an allergic reaction (skin sensitization) based on information for closely related chemicals.
