2. Hazards
Identification:
Emergency
Overview
Warning! Color: Clear/Pale Yellow; Form: Liquid; Odor: Negligible; May Cause lung damage;
May cause eye, skin, and respiratory tract irritation; May cause allergic respiratory reaction; Harmful if
inhaled; May cause allergic skin reaction; Closed container may explode under extreme heat or when
contaminated with water; Toxic gases/fumes are given off during burning or thermal decomposition.
Potential Health Effects:
Route of Entry: Inhalation, skin contact, eye contact
.
Acute Inhalation: HDI vapors or mists at concentrations above the TLV or MGL can irritate (burning
sensation) the mucous membranes in the respiratory tract (nose, throat, lungs) causing runny nose,
sore throat, coughing, chest discomfort, shortness of breath, and reduced lung function (breathing
obstruction). Persons with a preexisting, nonspecific bronchial hyper reactivity can respond to
concentrations below the TLV or MGL with similar as well as an asthma attack. Exposure well above
the TLV or MGL may lead to bronchitis, bronchial spasm, and pulmonary edema (fluid in lungs). These
effects are usually reversible. Chemical or hypersensitive pneumonitis, with flu-like symptoms (e.g.
fever, chills) has also been reported.
Chronic Inhalation: because of previous repeated overexposures or a single large dose, certain
individuals will develop isocyanate sensitization (chemical asthma), which will cause them to react to a
later exposure to isocyanate at levels well below the TLV or MGL. These symptoms, which include
chest tightness, wheezing, cough, shortness of breath or asthma attack, could be immediate or
delayed up to several hours after exposure. Similar to many nonspecific asthmatic responses, there
are reports that once sensitized an individual can experience these symptoms upon exposure to dust,
cold air, or other irritants. This increased lung sensitivity can persist for weeks and in several years.
Chronic overexposure to isocyanates has been reported to cause lung damage, including decrease in
lung function, which may be permanent. Sensitization may be either temporary or permanent.
Acute skin Contact: Isocyanates react with the skin protein and moisture and can cause irritation.
Symptoms of skin irritation may be reddening, swelling, rash, scaling, or blistering. Some persons
may develop skin sensitization from skin contact. Cured material is difficult to remove.
Chronic Skin contact: Prolonged contact with the isocyanate can cause reddening, swelling, rash,
scaling, or blistering. In those who have developed a skin sensitization, these symptoms can develop
because of contact with very small amounts of liquid material or even because of vapor-only exposure.
Acute Eye Contact: Liquid, aerosols, and vapors of this product are irritating and can cause pain,
tearing, reddening, and swelling accompanied by a stinging sensation and/or a feeling like that of fine
dust in the eyes.
Chronic Eye Contact: May result in cornel (clouding of the eye surface).
Acute Ingestion: Can result in irritation and possible corrosive action in the mouth, stomach
tissue and digestive tract.
Chronic Ingestion: None found
Carcinogenicity: NTP- not listed IRAC- not listed OSHA-not regulated
Medical Conditions Aggravated By Exposure: Asthma and other respiratory disorders (bronchitis,
emphysema, and hyper reactivity), skin allergies, eczema.
Exposure Limits: Not established for product as a whole. Refer to Section II for exposure limits of
hazardous constituents. The manufacturer Guideline Level of 0.5 mg/m3- TWA and 1.0 mg/m3-STEL
for the Homopolymer of HDI and 0.02 ppm ceiling for HDI monomer are internal guides based on
limited data: they are provided as guides pending the review of future data.
3. First Aid Measures:
Eyes: Flush with clean, lukewarm water (low pressure) for at least 15 minutes, while lifting eyelids.
Refer individual to physician or ophthalmologist for immediate follow-up.
Skin: Remove contaminated clothing immediately. Wash affected areas thoroughly with soap and
water. Wash contaminated clothing thoroughly before reuse. For severe exposure, get under safety
shower after removing clothing, and then get medical attention. For lesser exposures, seek medical
attention if irritation develops or persists.
Inhalation: Move to an area free from risk of further exposure. Administer oxygen or artificial
respiration as needed. Obtain medical attention. Asthmatic-type symptoms may develop and may
be immediate or delayed up to several hours. Treatment is essentially symptomatic. Consult
physician.
Ingestion: DO NOT INDUCE VOMITING! Give 1 to 2 cups of milk or water to drink.
DO NOT GIVE ANYTHING BY MOUTH TO AN UNCONSCIOUS OR CONVULSING PERSON.
Consult physician.
NOTE TO PHYSICIAN: Eyes- stain for evidence of cornel injury. If cornea is burned, instill
antibiotic/steroid preparation frequently. Workplace vapors could produce reversible corneal epithelial
edema impairing vision. Skin: this product is a known skin sensitizer. Treat symptomatically as for
contact dermatitis or thermal burn. Ingestion: treat symptomatically. There is no specific antidote.
Inducing vomiting is contraindicated because of the irritating nature of the product. Inhalation- This
product is a known pulmonary sensitizer. Treatment is essentially symptomatic. An individual having
dermal or pulmonary sensitization reaction to this material must be removed from any further
exposure to any isocyanate.
4. Fire Fighting Measures:
Flash Point: Greater than 2000F (93oC)
Extinguishing Media: Dry chemical, foam, carbon dioxide, and water spray for
large fires. Special fire fighting procedures: Full emergency equipment with self-contained
breathing apparatus and full protective clothing should be worn by firefighters. During a fire, HDI
vapors and other irritating, highly toxic gases may be generated by thermal decomposition or
combustion (See Section 10). Closed container may explode when exposed to extreme heat or
burst when contaminated with water (CO2 evolved).
5. Accidental Release Measures:
Spill or leak procedures: Evacuate nonessential personnel. Remove all sources of ignition and
ventilate the area. Notify appropriate authorities if necessary. Put on personnel protective equipment
(see Section 7). Dike or impound spilled material and control further spillage if feasible. Use
vermiculite, Fuller鈥檚 earth or other absorbent material. Pour decontamination solution over spill area
and allow to react for at least 10 minutes. Collect material in open containers and add further
amounts of decontamination solution. Remove containers to a safe place, cover loosely, and allow to
stand for 24 to 48 hours. Wash down spill area with decontamination solutions. Decontamination
solutions: nonionic surfactant Union Carbide鈥檚 Tergitol TMN-lO (20%) and water (80%); concentrated
ammonia (3-8%), detergent (2%) and water (90-95%).
.
6. Handling and Storage:
Storage Temperature (mm/max): -30F (-34C)!122 F (50C)
Shelf Life: 6 months at 77F (25C) after receipt
of material by customer.
Special Sensitivity: If container is exposed to high heat, it can be
pressurized and possibly rupture explosively. Nfl reacts slowly with water to form CO2 gas. This gas
can cause sealed containers to expand and rupture explosively.
Handling and Storage Precautions: Store in tightly closed. containers to prevent moisture
contamination. Do not reseal if contamination is suspected. At maximum storage temperatures noted,
material may slowly polymerize without hazard. Ideal storage temperature range for ease of handling
is 50-81F (10-27C). Avoid contact with skin and eyes. Employee education and training in the safe use
and handling of this product are required under the OSHA Hazard Communication Standard.
7. Personal Protection:
Required work/hygiene procedures: Precautions must be taken so that persons handling this
product do not allow contact with the eyes or skin. In spray operations, protection must be
afforded against exposure to both vapor and spray mist.
Skin Protection Requirements: Permeation resistant gloves. Cover as much of the exposed
skin area as possible with appropriate clothing. If skin cream is used, keep the area protected
only by the cream to a minimum.
Ventilation Requirements: Good industrial hygiene practice dictates that worker protection
should be achieved through engineering controls such as ventilation; the use of respirators and
other personal protective equipment is mandated. (See respirator requirements) Exhaust air
may need to be cleaned by scrubbers or filters to reduce environmental contamination. Curing
ovens must be ventilated to prevent emissions into the workplace. Of oven off-glass are not
vented properly (i.e. They are released into the work area), it is possible to be exposed to
airborne monomeric HDI.
Respirator Requirements: A respirator that is recommended or approved for use in isocyanate
containing environments (air purifying or fresh air supplied) may be necessary for spray
applications or other situations such as high temperature use, which may produce inhalation
exposures. A supplied air respirator (either positive pressure or continuous flow type) is
recommended. Before an air-purifying respirator can be used, air monitoring must be performed
to measure airborne concentrations of HDI monomer, HDI polyisocyanate and organic
solvent(s). See the outline below for the specific conditions under which air-purifying respirators
can be used. Observe OSHA regulations for respirator use (29 CFR 1910.134).
Spray Applications:
A. Good industrial hygiene practice dictates that when isocyanate based coatings are sprayed
applied,
some form of respiratory protection should be worn. During the spray application of organic
solvent
containing coatings systems, the use of a supplied-air (either positive pressure or
continuous flow
type) respirator is mandatory when ONE or MORE of the following conditions exists:
.
鈥? the airborne isocyanate concentrations are not known; or
鈥? the airborne isocyanate monomer concentrations exceed 0.05 ppm (10 times the TLV);
or
鈥? the airborne polyisocyanate (polymeric, oligomeric) concentrations exceed 5 mg/m3
averaged
over 8 hours or 10 mg/m3 averaged over 15 minutes (10 times the MGL) ;or
no airborne solvent concentration exceeds its odor threshold; or
~ spraying is performed in a confined space (see OSHA Confined Space Standard 29 CFR
1910.146).
A properly fitted air-purifying (combination organic vapor and particulate) respirator, proven by test to
be effective in isocyanate-containing spray paint environments, and used in accordance with all
recommendations made by the manufacturer, can be used when all of the following conditions are
met:
鈥? the airborne isocyanate monomer concentrations are known to be below 0.05 ppm
(10 times the TLV); and
鈥? the airborne polyisocyanate (polymeric, oligomeric) concentrations are known to be
below 5 mg/m3 averaged over 8 hours or 10 mg/m3 averaged over 15 minutes (10
times the MGL); and
鈥? at least one solvent has a published odor threshold*; and
鈥? at least one airborne solvent concentration exceeds its odor threshold and that
solvent鈥檚 odor threshold is lower than its TLV.
B. During the spray application of a coating system NOT containing organic solvents a
supplied-air (either positive or continuous flow type) respirator is mandatory when ONE
or MORE of the following conditions exist:
鈥? the airborne isocyanate concentrations are not known; or
鈥? the airborne isocyanate monomer concentration exceeds the MGL of 0.5 ppm; or
鈥? the airborne polyisocyanate (polymeric, oligomeric) concentration exceeds the MGL of
0.5
mg/m3 averaged over 8 hours or 1 mg!m3 averaged over 15 minutes; or
鈥? spraying is performed in a confined space (See OSHA Confined Space Standard 29
CFR
1910.146).
Under any other circumstances, during a spray application of a coatings system NOT containing
organic solvents, good industrial hygiene practice dictates that when isocyanate based coatings
are spray applied at least an air-purifying respirator should be worn.
Non-spray Operations:
A. During non-spray operations such as mixing, batch mixing, brush or roller application,
etc., at elevated temperatures (for example, heating of material or application to a hot substrate), it
is possible to be exposed to airborne isocyanate vapors. Therefore, when the coatings system
contains solvents and will be applied in a non-spray manner, a supplied-air (either positive
pressure or continuous flow type) respirator is mandatory when ONE or MORE of the following
conditions exists:
鈥? the airborne isocyanate concentrations are known, or
鈥? the airborne isocyanate monomer concentrations exceed 0.05 ppm (10 times the
TLV) ;or
鈥? the polyisocyanate (polymeric, oligomeric) concentrations exceed 5 mg/m3 averaged
over 8
hours or 10 mg/m3 averaged over 15 minutes (10 times the MGL) ;or
no airborne solvent concentrations exceeds its odor threshold; or
鈥? operations are performed in a confined space (see OSHA Confined Space Standard
29 CFR
1910.146).
A properly fitted air-purifying (combination organic vapor and particulate) respirator, proven by test to
be effective in isocyanate-containing paint environments, and used in accordance with all
recommendations made by the manufacturer, can be used when ALL of the following conditions are
met:
鈥? the airborne isocyanate monomer concentrations are known to be below 0.05 ppm (10
times the TLV); and
鈥? the airborne polyisocyanate(polymeric, oligomeric) concentrations are known to be
below 5 mg/m3 averaged over 8 hours or 10 mg/m3 averaged over 15 minutes (10
times the MGL); and
鈥? at least one solvent has a published odor threshold*; and
鈥? at least one airborne solvent concentration exceeds its odor threshold and that
solvent鈥檚 odor threshold is lower than its TLV.
C. During non-spray operations using a solvent-free a supplied-air
(either positive pressure or continuous flow type) respirator is
mandatory when ONE or MORE of the following conditions
exist:
鈥? the airborne isocyanate concentrations are not known; or
鈥? the airborne isocyanate monomer concentration exceeds the TLV of 0.005 ppm; or
鈥? the airborne polyisocyanate (polymeric, oligomeric) concentration exceeds the MGL of
0.5mg/m3 averaged over 8 hours or lmg/m3 averaged over 15 minutes; or
鈥? operations are performed in a confined space (See OSHA Confined Space Standard
29 CFR
1910.146).
Monitoring:
Refer to Patty鈥檚 Industrial Hygiene and Toxicology-Volume l (3rd edition) Chapter 17 and
Volume III (first edition) Chapter 3-for guidance concerning appropriate air sampling
strategy to determine airborne concentrations of isocyanates and solvent.
Medical Surveillance
Medical supervision of all employees who handle or come in contact with this product is
recommended. This should include pre-employment and periodic medical examinations
with respiratory function tests (FEV, FVC as a minimum). Persons with asthma-type
conditions, chronic bronchitis, other chronic respiratory diseases or recurrent skin eczema
or sensitization should be excluded from working with isocyanates. Once a person is
diagnosed as sensitized to an isocyanate, no further exposure can be permitted.

10. Toxicological Information:
Toxicity Data for: HDI homopolymer materials except where indicated
Acute Toxicity
Oral LD5O: Estimated to be greater than 10000mg/kg (rats). (Based on results of actual
tests conducted using specific HDI homopolymer products)
Dermal LD5O: Estimated to be greater than 5000 mg/kg (rabbits) (based on the results of actual
tests conducted using specific HDI homopolymer products.)
Inhalation LC5O: Lower respiratory (pulmonary) irritant. LC5O values range from 137-1150
mg/m 3 were obtained in rats exposed to aerosols. (4H exp.)
Eye Effects: Severe irritant capable of inducing cornel injury (rabbit); maximum primary
eye irritation score: 54.6/110 for a 24-hour exposure.
Skin Effects: Moderate irritant; primary dermal irritation score:3.4/8.0 (rabbit)
.
Sensitization: Pulmonary and dermal sensitizer in humans. Delayed dermal sensitization was
observed in guinea pigs. However, the respiratory sensitization potential of Desmodur N-3300
assessed in guinea pigs was negative. Evidence exists that cross-sensitization between HDI
and other isocyanates, particularly hydrogenated MDI and TDI, can occur.
Other Acute Effects: Ames test: Negative for Desmodur N-100 (100% solids material).
Subchronic Toxicity: Rats exposed to a HDI homopolymer (isocyanate type, specifically, the
solvent-free Desmodur N-3300), at aerosol concentrations of 4.3, 14.7 and 89.8 mg/m3 for
three weeks (6 hr./day, 5 days/wk) exhibited respiratory distress and inflammation of the nasal
passages at 14.7 mg/m3 and above. At the 89.8 mg/m3 level, inflammatory lesions at many
sites of the lungs were also observed. The No Observable Effect Level (NOEL) was 4.3 mg/m3.
Rats were also exposed to an HDI homopolymer (isocyanate type, specifically, the solvent-free
Demodur N-3300), for 13 weeks (6hr./day, 5 days/wk) at aerosol concentrations of 0.5,3.3 and
26.4 mg/m3. Body weight gains of male rats of the 26.4-mg/m3 group were slightly reduced
toward the end of the study. The lung weight to body weight ratio was significantly increased in
the male and female rats of the 26.4 mg/m3 group. Histopathologic diagnosis of these animals
revealed inflammatory changes and formation of fibrous tissue at the point of injury in the
respiratory tract. In addition, the lung function tests at the end of the study provided evidence of
a chronic obstructive disorder in rats of the 26.4 mg/m3 group. The No Observable Effect Level
(NOEL) in this study is considered to be 3.3 mg/m3.
Other Toxicity Data: Mice were exposed to a liquid aerosol of an HDI homopolymer
(isocyanurate type, specifically, the solvent-free Desmodur N-3300), mixed with acetone for
three hours. The irritation potential expressed as the RD5O (the concentration which is
predicted to reduce the respiratory rate 50%) was 20.8 mg/m3 (95% confidence interval= 18.3
to 23.9 mg/m3). Pulmonary (lung) irritation was observed first, following by sensory (eye,
nose, and throat) irritation.
