Carcinogenicity : In 1996 the IARC reevaluated carbon black as a Group 2B carcinogen

(possible human carcinogen). This classification is given to chemicals for
which there is inadequate human evidence, but sufficient animal evidence on
which to base an opinion of carcinogenicity. The classification is based upon
the development of lung tumors in rats receiving chronic inhalation exposures
to free carbon black at levels that induce particle overload of the lung. Studies
performed in animal models other than rats did not show any association
between carbon black and lung tumors. Moreover, a two-year cancer bioassay
using a typical toner preparation containing carbon black demonstrated no
association between toner exposure and tumor development in rats.
