Other Information

Uses of this substance as ultra-fine particles (<100nm) (nanoparticles) may produce adverse effects at concentrations well below those indicated on this Card. Utmost care should be taken.Depending on the process of manufacture, there are variations in their chemical compositions.Polyaromatic hydrocarbons (PAH) are reportedly present in some carbon blacks.Carbon blacks containing over 8% volatiles may pose an explosion hazard (see Physical Dangers).Most carbon black powders will not have a UN number, however, depending on the specification of the powder, possible UN numbers are: 1361, class 4.2, packing group I or II; or UN 1362, class 4.2, packing group III.The GHS classification will also vary according to the specification of the powder.
