SECTION 2: Hazards identification

OSHA space Emergency overview Thermal decomposition/burning may produce toxic gases and fumes. Closed containers may rupture when exposed to high temperatures, or when the product has been contaminated with water. Avoid breathing hot mists and vapors. This product contains a respiratory and skin sensitizer. Causes respiratory tract irritation and may cause allergic respiratory reaction. May cause permanent respiratory damage. Product vapors are potentially irritating to skin. May cause allergic skin reaction and dermatitis. Harmful: danger of serious damage to health by prolonged exposure through inhalation, in contact with skin and if swallowed. Methyl alcohol is formed during curing. Provide ventilation adequate to control vapor exposure within inhalation guidelines when handling. space

Potential health effects

Eyes space This product may cause irritation to the eyes. May cause temporary corneal injury. Skin This product may cause irritation to the skin. Isocyanates may react with skin protein and moisture to cause itching, reddening, swelling, scaling or blistering. Individuals previously sensitized to this material may experience these symptoms from exposure to very small amounts of liquid or vapor. space Inhalation This product may cause irritation to the respiratory system. Single large does, and/or repeated exposures, may lead to sensitization to diisocyanates or polyisocyanates (asthma or asthma-like symptoms), causing an individual to experience adverse effects at exposure levels well below exposure limits or guidelines. Symptoms may include chest tightness, wheezing, shortness of breath, coughing or asthmatic attack, and may be delayed up to several hours. Extreme asthmatic reactions can be life threatening. Once sensitized, an individual may experience adverse symptoms upon exposure to dust, cold air or other irritants. Sensitization can last several months, years or be permanent in some cases. Methyl alcohol is formed during curing. Use with adequate ventilation. Repeated inhalation may be harmful; lung irritation and serious central nervous system disorders may result. Inhalation of vapours in high concentration can cause narcotic effects and metabolic acidosis. space Ingestion Ingestion can cause gastrointestinal irritation, nausea, vomiting and diarrhea. This product may produce corrosive damage to the gastrointestinal tract if it is swallowed. Ingestion of this product may result in central nervous system effects including headache, sleepiness, dizziness, slurred speech and blurred vision. Small amounts of this product, if aspirated into the lungs, may cause mild to severe pulmonary injury. space Target organs The lungs and skin may be targeted and damaged by components of this product. Central nervous system. Kidneys and Liver. space Signs and symptoms Signs and symptoms of overexposure to this product include headache, irritation of upper respiratory tract, asthmatic symptoms, chest tightness, breathing difficulty, coughing, sore throat, eye irritation, skin irritation and/or diarrhea. Inhalation of Methyl alcohol vapors in high concentrations may cause nausea, abdominal pain, vomiting, headache, dizziness, shortness of breathe, weakness, fatigue, leg cramps, restlessness, confusion, drunken behavior, visual disturbances, drowsiness, coma, and death. Visual effects may include blurred vision, diplopia, changes in color perception, restriction of visual fields, and complete blindness. Ingestion of moderate quantities of Methyl alcohol produces metabolic acidosis. Onset of symptoms may

Hazard statements

This product contains Methylene Diphenyl Isocyanate (MDI) which is a potential skin sensitizer and has been shown to alter cells in certain experiments. Although inconclusive, these cellular changes are thought to indicate potential carcinogenicity. Risk to your health depends on duration and concentration of exposure. .
