The SDS that I looked at for xylene did not mention it being a carcinogen; even the state of California (which is notorious for its "Proposition 65" regulations) does not consider xylene to be a carcinogen. (It is on the Prop 65 list, but for developmental and reproductive toxicity rather than for being a carcinogen.)
What else can I help you with?
Is honey a carcinogen food?
No, honey is not a considered carcinogen.
What is the voc content of xylene?
The volatile organic compound (VOC) content of xylene varies depending on the specific type of xylene and its intended use. However, xylene is generally considered to be a VOC due to its high vapor pressure and potential to contribute to air pollution.
Can a xylene based ink give you cancer?
Long-term exposure to xylene, a solvent found in some inks, has been linked to an increased risk of health issues, including cancer. However, the risk of developing cancer from xylene-based ink exposure on its own is generally considered low. It's always important to use proper safety precautions when handling any potentially harmful substances.
Is mill scale hazardous?
On the MSDS sheet it is not considered a carcinogen.
Which type of isomers are o-xylene m-xylene and p-xylene?
o-xylene, m-xylene, and p-xylene are positional isomers, meaning they have the same molecular formula but differ in the position of the substituent groups on the benzene ring.
Is calcium chloride a carcinogen?
No, calcium chloride is not considered a carcinogen. It is commonly used as a food additive, deicer, and in various industrial applications. Studies have not shown it to have carcinogenic properties.
Is xylene saturated or unsaturated?
Xylene is an aromatic hydrocarbon and is considered unsaturated due to its presence of a benzene ring, which contains alternating double bonds. The chemical structure of xylene (C8H10) includes two methyl groups attached to a benzene ring, contributing to its unsaturated nature. Therefore, xylene does not have the maximum number of hydrogen atoms that a saturated hydrocarbon would have.
Is perchlorethylene a known carcinogen?
Perc is considered by the International Agency for Research on Cancer to be a Group 2A carcinogen. This means it's probably carcinogenic in humans but it hasn't been proven.
Is sodium hydroxide a carcinogen?
Sodium hydroxide is not considered as a chemical with carcinogenic or mutagenic effects.
Is breast cancer a carcinogen?

Is pollen a carcinogen?
Pollen is not considered a carcinogen. It is a natural substance produced by plants for reproductive purposes, and while it can sometimes trigger allergies in sensitive individuals, it is not known to cause cancer.
Is xylene an element or compound?
Xylene is a compound. It is a mixture of three isomeric aromatic hydrocarbons: o-xylene, m-xylene, and p-xylene.
