2.3 Other hazards

Acute: Fumes from hot work on or near polyurethane products can be irritating and lead to coughing. These fumes could contain traces of TDI, MDI, other isocyanates, and/or MBOCA. Skin or airborne exposure to isocyanates may produce an asthma-like lung sensitization, with shortness of breath, wheezing or cough, which may occur after re-exposure to very low levels. Skin contact with some polyurethane products may result in skin sensitization or an asthma-like lung sensitization. Chronic: Animal studies indicate that chronic inhalation or overexposure of dusts may cause inflammation of the lungs, fibrosis, and airway destruction. Severe Immediate Hazards Dusts from grinding operations may aggravate existing lung disorders when proper protection is not used.
