Signal word
DANGER! DANGER! Toxicological characteristics TDI is an extreme inhalation hazard, which can cause allergic sensitisation. React with water releasing carbon dioxide gas, which can build up pressure and rupture containers. TDI has been shown to cause cancer in experimental animals. Substances present at a concentration below the minimum danger No data available. Other component - 3. IDENTIFICATION OF HAZARDS Risk phrases: Signal word: DANGER! Skin contact: May cause irritation or rash, discoloration and sensitization. Eye contact: Can cause severe irritation, reddening, tearing and swelling. Inhalation Extremely toxic by inhalation, tightening of chest, respiratory tract irritation, coughing, headache and shortness of breath. May lead to allergic sensitivity in some individuals resulting in asthma –like symptoms at and below PEL exposure. If swallowed: Can irritate and burn mouth, stomach and digestive tract. Other information: -Repeated or prolonged over exposures may result in: Respiratory system disorders (allergic sensitization, injury to the lungs), skin disorders (allergic sensitization, allegic dermatitis) and cancer. -Routs of exposure Eyes , skin , ingestion and inhalation -Special hazard precautions: TDI is an extreme inhalation hazard, which can cause allergic sensitization. Reacts with water, releasing carbon dioxide gas, which can build up pressure and rupture containers. TDI has been shown to cause cancer in experimental animals. -Symptoms of over exposure: Eye irritation, rash, shortness of breath, headache, coughing, nausea, vomiting. Medical conditions aggravated by overexposure: dermatitis, asthma, lung disease, allergies. For persons already allergic to isocyanates, even concentrations below the OSHA PEL can trigger allergic response. Therefore, these persons should not be allowed to work in a TDI atmosphere.
