Carcinogenicity: Nickel

NTP? YES                       IARC? YES                      OSHA? NO

NICKEL has been classified by both the International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC) and the National Toxicology Program
(NTP) as having    sufficient evidence of carcinogenicity in experimental animals.  In addition, IARC has determined that there is
inadequate evidence of carcinogenicity in humans (Class 2B). The American Conference of Governmental Industrial Hygienists
(ACGIH) has categorized nickel as A5 (not suspected as a human carcinogen).  In evaluating NICKEL COMPOUNDS, the International
Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC) has determined that there is sufficient evidence of carcinogenicity to humans (Group 1). The
National Toxicology Program (NTP) lists only certain nickel compounds as substances which may reasonably be anticipated to be
carcinogenic. This product contains one of those nickel compounds specifically identified by NTP.

Carcinogenicity: Titanium Dioxide

NTP? NO

IARC? NO

OSHA? NO

Chronic Health Hazards:

Refer to Potential Health Effects and Carcinogenicity.

Medical Conditions Generally Aggravated by Exposure:

May aggravate existing medical conditions such as allergies, dermatitis, asthma, bronchitis or any other respiratory ailment.

NOTE: See Section 8 for Exposure Limits, Section 11 for Toxicological Information and Section 12 for Ecological Information.

SECTION 4 – FIRST AID MEASURES

In the unlikely event that the purifier media is liberated from the purifier body these health hazards may arise from inhalation, ingestion,
and or/contact with the skin and/or eyes

Eye Contact:

Immediately flush eyes with plenty of water for at least 15min. Call a physician.

Skin Contact:

Immediately wash skin with soap and plenty of water. If irritation persists, call a physician.

Inhalation:

Remove to fresh air. If breathing is difficult, oxygen should be administered by qualified personnel. Call a physician.

Ingestion:

Get medical attention! If vomiting occurs, keep head lower than hips to prevent aspiration.

Unusual Fire and Explosion Hazards:

This product will remain stable when housed in the purifier body.

When nickel is exposed air at temperatures below 175ºF (79ºC) will remain stable. At temperature above
175ºF (79ºC), oxidation will occur. Nickel when exposed to excess air and moisture, the oxidation process
