Other Hazards
At a higher temperature of 400°C (>752°F) Carbon Black burns slowly and can produce hazardous carbon monoxide (CO), carbon dioxide (CO2 ) and oxides of sulfur. Effective houskeeping and careful engineering practice are required to reduce th eemission of carbon black, May cause reversible mechanical irritation to the eyes, skin and respiratory tract especially at concentrations above the occupational exposure limit.
