Further information

Inhalation: Isocyanate vapors or mist at concentrations above the exposure limits or guidelines can cause a burning sensation and irritate the mucous membranes in the nose, throat, and lungs, resulting in symptoms of running nose, sore throat, coughing, chest discomfort, shortness of breath and difficulty in breathing. Persons with specific pre- existing as well as non-specific bronchial hyperreactivity can respond to concentrations of isocyanate below the exposure limit or guidelines with asthma or asthma-like symptoms. Exposure above these limits or guidelines may lead to bronchitis, bronchial spasm, and fluid in lungs (pulmonary edema). Some persons may see a delay of these symptoms up to several hours after exposure, and these effects are usually reversible. Skin: May cause skin irritation with symptoms of reddening, itching, and swelling. Can cause sensitization with symptoms of reddening, itching, swelling and rash. Cured material is difficult to remove from the skin. Eye: May cause eye irritation with symptoms of reddening, tearing, stinging, and swelling, particularly with product vapor, mists or aerosol. May cause temporary corneal injury. Ingestion: May cause irritation of the digestive tract with symptoms that include abdominal pain, nausea, vomiting, and diarrhea.
