Signal Word: Danger
Acute Health Effects:
Eyes: Severe irritation, tearing, swelling, and possible damage to cornea.
Skin: Irritation, redness, swelling, skin sensitization, rash, scaling, and blistering.
Inhalation: Mucous membrane and respiratory tract irritation, tightness of chest, isocyanate sensitization.
Ingestion: Irritating and corrosive to mouth, stomach, and digestive tract.
Conditions Aggravated by Exposure: Asthma, respiratory disorders, skin
Chronic Health Effects: Isocyanates may cause skin and respiratory sensitivity in some individuals.
Sensitized individuals may react to very low levels diisocyanates below the PEL. Sensitized people who
continue to work with diisocyanates may develop symptoms sooner after each exposure. Limited evidence of
possible carcinogenic effects.

4. First Aid Measures:
After Inhalation: May cause severe irritation to upper respiratory tract and lungs, respiratory sensitization,
decreased lung capacity.
Remove from exposure area to fresh air. Administer oxygen or artificial respiration as needed. Obtain

medical attention.
After Eye Contact: Rinse opened eye for at least 15 minutes under running water.
Remove contact lenses if present and easy to do so, and continue rinsing. If irritation persists contact
physician
After Skin Contact: Remove contaminated clothing. Clean affected area with soap and plenty of water. Call
a physician if irritation or rash develops.
After Swallowing: Do not induce vomiting. If conscious, give 1 to 2 cups of milk or water to drink. Consult a
physician at once.
Notes to Physician: Treat symptomatically. Following severe exposure the patient should be kept under
medical observation for a least 48 hours.

Information about Protection against Explosions and Fires: Closed containers may rupture when
exposed to extreme heat.
Dangerous Products of Decomposition: Oxides of carbon, oxides of nitrogen, isocyanates,and traces of
HCN.
Protective Equipment: Full emergency equipment with self contained breathing apparatus and full protective
clothing should be worn by firefighters.
6.Accidental Release Measures:
Person-Related Safety Precautions: Evacuate all non-essential personnel. Avoid contact with skin. Do not
breathe aerosols or vapors.
Measures for Environmental Protection: Cover and contain spill with absorbent material. Place waste in
open container. Remove to well ventilated area and dilute with ammonia solution (water 90%, concentrated
ammonia 8%, detergent 2%). Collect for proper disposal according to local, state, and federal regulations.
7.Handling and Storage:
Information for Safe Handling: Do not breathe fumes, vapors or mists. Use only with adequate ventilation.
Avoid contact with skin or eyes. Immediately report spills or leaks.
Storage Requirements: Store in dry, well ventilated area. Keep containers tightly closed. Store between
60 F-100 F.
Regulatory Requirements: Store according to all local, state, and federal regulations.

Engineering Controls: Use local exhaust ventilation to maintain airborne concentrations below the TLV,
especially if heating or spraying. Use only in a well ventilated area to keep vapors below exposure limits. Use
local exhaust ventilation if necessary.
General Protective and Hygienic Measures: Usual precautionary measures should be adhered to when
handling chemicals.
Personal Protective Equipment:
Respiratory Protection: Do not inhale vapors. Use NIOSH approved respiratory protection if TLV/PEL is
exceeded. Do not enter storage area unless adequately ventilated.
Hand Protection: Protective butyl rubber or nitrile rubber gloves.
Eye Protection: Chemical safety goggles.
Body Protection: Impervious protective work clothing. Launder separately.
