Talk:Bentonite (Clay)

From PyroGuide

Who added the HAZARDS for Bentonite and whoever it was, where did he get the fact that bentonite is a carcinogen from? I can't find that info anywhere... /djdoru

Bentonite when breathed in dust form will come into your loungs and form "rocks". Bentonite is suspected to be carcinogen if you get exposed over a longer amount of time. You can look up chemicals at www.kiros.dk such as Long-term effects, hazard symbols, risc/safety phrases etc. /Pudi

OK. Found it. Nice website! By the way, did you read what I said about the R- and S-phrases in the Chemicals discussion? /dj

EDIT: Just went on kiros.dk again to look for references about S- and R-phrases. Checked bentonite again and they modified the LONG-TERM EFFECTS to "PTI" (At the time of updating, no documentation was found for damaging long time effects in the product). LOL...5 minutes ago it was a Carcinogen...

It is still CSA here :) I think it would be best to keep Talk:Bentonite clay, in case anyone else wonder why it's carcinogen ;) /Pudi
