**** SECTION 3 - HAZARDS IDENTIFICATION ****
EMERGENCY OVERVIEW
Flammable. Toxic by inhalation, in contact with skin and if
swallowed. Irritating to eyes, respiratory system and skin.Moisture
sensitive.
Potential Health Effects
Eye:
Causes eye irritation. May cause conjunctivitis, ulceration and
turbidity of the cornea. May cause chemical conjunctivitis and
corneal damage.
Skin:
Causes skin irritation. May cause skin sensitization, an allergic
reaction, which becomes evident upon re-exposure to this material.
May cause irritation and dermatitis. May cause cyanosis of the
extremities.
Ingestion:
May cause gastrointestinal irritation with nausea, vomiting and
diarrhea. May cause liver and kidney damage. The toxicological
properties of this substance have not been fully investigated.
Ingestion of large amounts may cause CNS depression.
Inhalation:
Causes respiratory tract irritation. The toxicological properties of
this substance have not been fully investigated. Exposure produces
central nervous system depression. Aspiration may lead to pulmonary
edema. Vapors may cause dizziness or suffocation. At high
concentrations, isocyanates affect mucous membranes of the
respiratory tract and may lead to fatal pulmonary edema. Exposure to
low and often even unmeasurable isocyanate concentration results in
sensitization. In rare instances, exposure may cause sensitization,
resulting in inflammation of the mucous membranes and in eczematous
eruptions. May cause burning sensation in the chest.
Chronic:
May cause liver and kidney damage. Effects may be delayed. May cause
lung damage. Repeated or prolonged exposure may cause allergic
reactions in sensitive individuals. Inhalation of product may
aggravate existing chronic repiratory problems such as asthma,
emphysema or bronchitis.
**** SECTION 4 - FIRST AID MEASURES ****
Eyes:
Immediately flush eyes with plenty of water for at least 15 minutes,
occasionally lifting the upper and lower eyelids. Get medical aid. Do
NOT allow victim to rub eyes or keep eyes closed.
Skin:
Get medical aid. Flush skin with plenty of water for at least 15
minutes while removing contaminated clothing and shoes. Wash clothing
before reuse.
Ingestion:
Never give anything by mouth to an unconscious person. Get medical
aid. Do NOT induce vomiting. If conscious and alert, rinse mouth and
drink 2-4 cupfuls of milk or water.
Inhalation:
Remove from exposure and move to fresh air immediately. If not
breathing, give artificial respiration. If breathing is difficult,
give oxygen. Get medical aid. Do NOT use mouth-to-mouth
resuscitation.
Notes to Physician:
For ingestion, the stomach sould be intubated, aspirated, and
lavaged with a slurry of activated charcoal--protect the airway from
aspiration of gastric contents. Treat symptomatically and
supportively.
**** SECTION 5 - FIRE FIGHTING MEASURES ****
General Information:
As in any fire, wear a self-contained breathing apparatus in
pressure-demand, MSHA/NIOSH (approved or equivalent), and full
protective gear. Vapors may form an explosive mixture with air.
Vapors can travel to a source of ignition and flash back. During a
fire, irritating and highly toxic gases may be generated by thermal
decomposition or combustion. Will burn if involved in a fire. Use
water spray to keep fire-exposed containers cool. Water may be
ineffective. Material is lighter than water and a fire may be spread
by the use of water. Containers may explode in the heat of a fire.
Flammable liquid and vapor. Vapors may be heavier than air. They
can spread along the ground and collect in low or confined areas.
Extinguishing Media:
For small fires, use dry chemical, carbon dioxide, water spray or
alcohol-resistant foam. For large fires, use water spray, fog, or
alcohol-resistant foam. Use water spray to cool fire-exposed
containers. Water may be ineffective. Use agent most appropriate to
extinguish fire. Do NOT get water inside containers. Do NOT use
straight streams of water.
**** SECTION 6 - ACCIDENTAL RELEASE MEASURES ****
General Information: Use proper personal protective equipment as indicated
in Section 8.
Spills/Leaks:
Absorb spill with inert material (e.g. vermiculite, sand or earth),
then place in suitable container. Avoid runoff into storm sewers and
ditches which lead to waterways. Clean up spills immediately,
observing precautions in the Protective Equipment section. Remove all
sources of ignition. Use a spark-proof tool. Provide ventilation. Do
not get water inside containers. A vapor suppressing foam may be
used to reduce vapors.
**** SECTION 7 - HANDLING and STORAGE ****
Handling:
Use with adequate ventilation. Ground and bond containers when
transferring material. Use spark-proof tools and explosion proof
equipment. Avoid contact with eyes, skin, and clothing. Empty
containers retain product residue, (liquid and/or vapor), and can be
dangerous. Keep container tightly closed. Keep away from heat, sparks
and flame. Avoid ingestion and inhalation. Do not allow contact with
water. Wash clothing before reuse. Discard contaminated shoes. Do
not pressurize, cut, weld, braze, solder, drill, grind, or expose
empty containers to heat, sparks or open flames. Keep from contact
with moist air and steam.
Storage:
Keep away from heat, sparks, and flame. Keep away from sources of
ignition. Store in a tightly closed container. Store in a cool, dry,
well-ventilated area away from incompatible substances.
Flammables-area. Store protected from moisture.
**** SECTION 8 - EXPOSURE CONTROLS, PERSONAL PROTECTION ****
Engineering Controls:
Facilities storing or utilizing this material should be equipped
with an eyewash facility and a safety shower. Use adequate general or
local explosion-proof ventilation to keep airborne levels to
acceptable levels.
Exposure Limits
CAS# 542-85-8:

A respiratory protection program that meets OSHA's 29
CFR 1910.134 and ANSI Z88.2 requirements or European
Standard EN 149 must be followed whenever workplace
conditions warrant respirator use.
