SECTION 2: Hazards identification

(29 CFR 1910.1200) Emergency overview : WARNING! COMBUSTIBLE LIQUID AND VAPOR. HARMFUL IF INHALED. CAUSES RESPIRATORY TRACT AND EYE IRRITATION. MAY CAUSE ALLERGIC RESPIRATORY AND SKIN REACTION. SKIN CONTACT TO ISOCYANATE MONOMER MAY LEAD TO ALLERGIC LUNG REACTION. MAY BE HARMFUL IF SWALLOWED. CONTAINS MATERIAL THAT CAN CAUSE TARGET ORGAN DAMAGE. Keep away from heat, sparks and flame. Do not breathe vapor or mist. Do not get on skin or clothing. Avoid contact with eyes. Use only with adequate ventilation. Keep container tightly closed and sealed until ready for use. Wash thoroughly after handling.

Potential Acute Health Effects

Inhalation : Harmful if inhaled. Severely irritating to the respiratory system. Can irritate eyes, nose, mouth and throat. May cause sensitization by inhalation. Exposure to decomposition products may cause a health hazard. Serious effects may be delayed following exposure. Ingestion : May be harmful if swallowed. Skin : May cause an allergic skin reaction. Eyes : Irritating to eyes. Over-exposure signs/symptoms Repeated exposure to high vapor concentrations may cause irritation of the respiratory system and permanent brain and nervous system damage. Inhalation of vapor/aerosol concentrations above the recommended exposure limits causes headaches, drowsiness and nausea and may lead to unconsciousness or death. There is some evidence that repeated exposure to organic solvent vapors in combination with constant loud noise can cause greater hearing loss than expected from exposure to noise alone. Based on the properties of the isocyanate components and considering toxicological data on similar mixtures, this mixture may cause acute irritation and/or sensitization of the respiratory system, leading to an asthmatic condition, wheezing and tightness of the chest. Sensitized persons may subsequently show asthmatic symptoms when exposed to atmospheric concentrations well below the OEL. Repeated exposure may lead to permanent respiratory disability. Medical conditions : Pre-existing respiratory and skin disorders and disorders involving any other target aggravated by over- organs mentioned in this MSDS as being at risk may be aggravated by over-exposure exposure to this product.
