Carbon black is one of the most common substances to trigger the labeling requirement. Nearly all black plastic and rubber parts have carbon black, because it is a key ingredient in providing UV resistance. Carbon Black is carcinogenic in unbound particles of respirable size. While it is nearly impossible to get unbound particles of respirable size in normal use, it is easier for companies to label a product than to file for an exemption to the rule.
