The symptoms of overexposure are described below. ACUTE: INHALATION: TDI vapors or mist at concentrations above the TLV can irritate (burning sensation) the mucous membranes in the respiratory tract (nose, throat, lungs) causing runny nose, sore throat, coughing, chest discomfort, shortness of breath and reduced lung function (breathing obstruction). High vapor concentrations may cause central nervous system (CNS) depression as evidenced by giddiness, headache, dizziness, and nausea. CONTACT WITH SKIN: Isocyanates react with skin protein and moisture and can cause irritation. Prolonged contact can cause reddening, swelling, rash, scaling, blistering, and, in some cases, skin sensitization. EYE CONTACT: Liquid, aerosols or vapors are severely irritating and can cause pain, tearing, reddening and swelling. INGESTION: Can result in irritating and corrosive action in the mouth, stomach tissue and digestive tract. Symptoms can include sore throat, abdominal pain, nausea, vomiting and diarrhea. CHRONIC: Repeated exposure above current occupational limits may cause an allergic sensitization of the respiratory tract. This is characterized by an asthma-like response upon re-exposure to the chemical. The symptoms may include coughing, wheezing, shortness of breath and chest tightness, and may be fatal. Central nervous system (CNS) impairment leading to unconsciousness. TARGET ORGANS Acute Skin, Respiratory System and Eyes Chronic Skin, Respiratory System
