1、Designation: D4236 94 (Reapproved 2010)Standard Practice forLabeling Art Materials for Chronic Health Hazards1This standard is issued under the fixed designation D4236; the number immediately following the designation indicates the year oforiginal adoption or, in the case of revision, the year of la

2、st revision. A number in parentheses indicates the year of last reapproval. Asuperscript epsilon () indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.INTRODUCTIONUninformed or careless use of some art material products can give rise to health hazards, eitheracute or chronic, or bot

3、h. Specific and readily available warnings are needed to help protect users ofany age. One way to disseminate such information is to provide appropriate precautionary labeling onart material products.Labeling for acute health hazards, including those associated with art materials, is being addressed

4、by such requirements as the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Act (CPSC)2, the Federal HazardousSubstances Act, and the like. There are presently no specific national standards for labeling artmaterials with respect to chronic health hazards.This practice is intended to provide a standard for developing

5、precautionary labels concerningchronic health hazards related to the use of art materials. It is further intended to have the adaptabilitynecessary to keep labels current with existing scientific and medical knowledge, as well as inconformity with other precautionary labeling requirements, both acut

6、e and chronic, thereby avoidingunnecessary confusion by users with respect to other precautionary labeling.1. Scope1.1 This practice describes a procedure for developingprecautionary labels for art materials and provides hazard andprecautionary statements based upon knowledge that exists inthe scien

7、tific and medical communities. This practice concernsthose chronic health hazards known to be associated with aproduct or product component(s), when the component(s) ispresent in a physical form, volume, or concentration that in theopinion of a toxicologist (see 2.1.11) has the potential toproduce a

8、 chronic adverse health effect(s).1.2 This practice applies exclusively to art materials pack-aged in sizes intended for individual users of any age or thoseparticipating in a small group.1.3 Labeling determinations shall consider reasonable fore-seeable use or misuse. The responsibility for precaut

9、ionarylabeling rests with the producer or repackager who markets thematerials for art or craft use.1.4 This practice does not specify test methods for deter-mining whether a substance or product presents chronic healthhazards.1.5 This practice does not apply to products appropriatelylabeled for know

10、n chronic health hazards in accordance withchemical substance labeling standards and practices, such asanother national consensus standard, existing labeling statutes,regulations, or guidelines.1.6 Since knowledge about chronic health hazards is incom-plete and warnings cannot cover all uses of any

11、product, it isnot possible for precautionary labeling to ensure completelysafe use of an art product.1.7 Manufacturers or repackagers may wish to determineindividually or collectively precautionary labeling for artmaterials in accordance with this practice. Compliance may becertified by a certifying

12、 organization. Guidelines for a certify-ing organization are given in Appendix X1.1.8 This standard does not purport to address all of thesafety concerns, if any, associated with its use. It is theresponsibility of the user of this standard to establish appro-priate safety and health practices and d

13、etermine the applica-bility of regulatory limitations prior to use.1This practice is under the jurisdiction of ASTM Committee D01 on Paint andRelated Coatings, Materials, and Applications and is the direct responsibility ofSubcommittee D01.57 on Artist Paints and Related Materials.Current edition ap

Last previous edition approved in 2005 as D4236 94 (2005).DOI: 10.1520/D4236-94R10.2ASTM Practice D4236 has been codified into U.S. law as part of the FederalHazardous SubstancesAct, 15 USC S1277. Users of this standard should

15、 be familiarwith the law and its regulations. Under this law and its regulations (16 CRF 1500),manufacturers must submit to the CPSC (Washington DC 20207) written criteriaused by the toxicologist to recommend labeling.1Copyright ASTM International, 100 Barr Harbor Drive, PO Box C700, West Conshohock

25、ctical use, but in whichaesthetic considerations are paramount.3. Requirements3.1 To conform to this voluntary practice the producer orrepackager of art materials shall submit art material productformulation(s) or reformulation(s) to a toxicologist for review,such review to be in accordance with Sec

26、tion 4 of this practice.The toxicologist shall be required to keep product formula-tion(s) confidential.3.1.1 Unless otherwise agreed in writing by the producer orrepackager, no one other than the toxicologist shall have accessto the formulation(s); except that the toxicologist shall furnisha patien

27、ts physician, on a confidential basis, the informationnecessary to diagnose or treat cases of exposure or accidentalingestion.3.2 To conform to this practice, the producer or repackager,upon advice given by a toxicologist in accordance with Section4 of this practice, shall adopt precautionary labeli

28、ng in accor-dance with Section 5 of this practice and based upon generallyaccepted, well-established evidence that a component sub-stance(s) is known to cause chronic adverse health effects.3.3 To conform to this practice, labeling shall be parallel to,conform to, and minimally include any labeling

29、practicesprescribed by U.S. federal and state statutes or regulations andshall not diminish the effect of required acute toxicity warn-ings.3.4 To conform to this practice, the producer or repackagershall supply a poison exposure management informationsource3the generic formulation information requi

If an art material pro-ducer or repackager becomes newly aware of any significantinformation regarding the chronic hazards of an art material orways to protect against the chronic hazard, this new infor

32、ma-tion must be incorporated into the labels of such art materialsthat are manufactured after 12 months from the date ofdiscovery. If a producer or repackager reformulates an artmaterial, the new information must be evaluated and labeled inaccordance with Section 5 of this practice.3.6 Statement of

33、Conformance“Conforms to ASTM Prac-tice D4236,” or “Conforms toASTM D4236,” or “Conforms tothe health requirements of ASTM D4236.” This statement maybe combined with other conformance statements. The purposeof the conformance statement is to inform the purchaser, at thetime of purchase, of the produc

Determination of Labeling4.1 An art material is considered to have the potential forproducing chronic adverse health effects if any customary orreasonably foreseeable use can result in a chronic hazard.4.2

37、In making the determination a toxicologist(s) shall takeinto account the following:4.2.1 Current chemical composition of the art material,supplied by an analytical laboratory or by an industrial chemiston behalf of a manufacturer or repackager.4.2.2 Current generally accepted, well-established scien

38、tificknowledge of the chronic toxic potential of each componentand the total formulation.4.2.3 Specific physical and chemical form of the art materialproduct, bioavailability, concentration, and the amount of eachpotentially chronic toxic component found in the formulation.4.2.4 Reasonably foreseeab

39、le uses of the art material prod-uct as determined by consultation with users and other indi-viduals who are experienced in use of the material(s), such asteachers, or by market studies, unless such use information haspreviously been determined with respect to the specific artmaterial(s) under revie

40、w.4.2.5 Potential for known synergism and antagonism of thevarious components of the formulation.4.2.6 Potentially chronic adverse health effects of decom-position or combustion products, if known, from any reason-ably foreseeable use of the hazardous art material product.4.2.7 Opinions of various r

41、egulatory agencies and scientificbodies, including the International Agency for Research onCancer and the National Cancer Institute, on the potential forchronic adverse health effects of the various components of theformulation.4.3 Based upon the conclusion reached in conformance withreview determin

42、ations set forth herein the toxicologist(s) shallrecommend precautionary labeling consistent with Section 5 ofthis practice.5. Labeling Practices5.1 Signal Word:5.1.1 When a signal word for an acute hazard(s) is mandatedand a chronic hazard(s) exists, the signal word shall be that forthe acute hazar

43、d.5.1.2 When only a chronic hazard(s) exists, the signal wordWARNING shall be used.5.1.3 The signal word shall be prominently visible and set inbold capitals in a size equal to or greater than the statement ofpotential chronic hazards.5.2 List of Potentially Chronic HazardsPotentiallychronic hazards

44、, as determined under the procedures of Section4, shall be stated substantially in accordance with the state-ments listed in Annex A1 of this practice. Potentially chronichazards noted shall be those that are clinically significant andthat might be expected with any reasonably foreseeable use ofthe

45、art material. The hazards should be grouped in the order ofrelative descending severity.5.3 Name of Chronically Hazardous Component(s)Allcomponents and known decomposition products of the formu-lation with a potential for chronic hazards, as determined underthe procedures of Section 4, shall be list

46、ed prominently.Generically equivalent names may be used.5.4 Safe Handling InstructionsAppropriate precautionarystatements as to work practices, personal protection, andventilation requirements shall be used substantially conform-ing with those listed in Annex A2 of this practice.5.5 List of Sensitiz

47、ing Components To protect users fromknown sensitizers found within art materials, each label shallcontain a list of those sensitizers present in sufficient amountsto contribute significantly to a known skin or respiratorysensitization.5.6 Combined StatementsIf an art material contains morethan one c

48、omponent capable of causing a chronic adversehealth effect, or if a single chemical can cause several differentchronic adverse health effects, the potential effects may becombined into one statement.5.7 Information SourcesIn addition to an appropriatetelephone number, the precautionary label shall c
