Section 3 - Hazards Identification
|
EMERGENCY OVERVIEW
Appearance: clear light yellow to yellow orange liquid. Flash Point: 60 deg C.
Danger! May be fatal if inhaled. Causes eye, skin,
and respiratory tract irritation. Flammable liquid and
vapor. May cause allergic respiratory and skin
reaction. May be harmful if swallowed or absorbed through the skin.
May cause lung damage. Moisture sensitive.
Target Organs: Lungs, respiratory system, eyes,
skin.
Potential Health Effects
Eye:
Vapors cause eye irritation. Lachrymator (substance which
increases the flow of tears). May cause severe eye irritation and
possible injury.
Skin:
Causes skin irritation. Organic isocyanates can cause local
irritation and allergic reactions. Isocyanates, in general, can
cause skin discoloration (staining) and hardening of the skin after
repeated exposures.
Ingestion:
May cause gastrointestinal irritation with nausea, vomiting and
diarrhea. May be harmful if swallowed.
Inhalation:
May be fatal if inhaled. Causes respiratory tract irritation. May
cause allergic respiratory reaction. At high concentrations,
isocyanates affect mucous membranes of the respiratory tract and may
lead to fatal pulmonary edema.
Chronic:
Chronic overexposure to isocyanates has been reported to cause lung
damage, including decreased lung fuction, which may be permanent.
Section 4 - First Aid Measures
|
Eyes:
In case of contact, immediately flush eyes with plenty of water for a
t least 15 minutes. Get medical aid immediately.
Skin:
In case of contact, immediately flush skin with soap and plenty of
water. Remove contaminated clothing and shoes. Get medical aid if
symptoms occur. Wash clothing before reuse.
Ingestion:
If swallowed, do not induce vomiting unless directed to do so by
medical personnel. Never give anything by mouth to an unconscious
person. Get medical aid.
Inhalation:
POISON material. If inhaled, get medical aid immediately. Remove
victim to fresh air. If not breathing, give artificial respiration.
If breathing is difficult, give oxygen.
Notes to Physician:
Treat symptomatically and supportively.
Section 5 - Fire Fighting Measures
|
General Information:
As in any fire, wear a self-contained breathing apparatus in
pressure-demand, MSHA/NIOSH (approved or equivalent), and full
protective gear. Flammable liquid and vapor. Fire or excessive heat
may result in violent rupture of the container due to bulk
polymerization. Approach fire from upwind to avoid hazardous vapors
and toxic decomposition products. Vapors are heavier than air and may
travel to a source of ignition and flash back. Vapors can spread
along the ground and collect in low or confined areas.
Extinguishing Media:
Use carbon dioxide or dry chemical.
Flash Point: 60 deg C ( 140.00 deg F)
Autoignition Temperature: Not available.
Explosion Limits, Lower:Not available.
Upper: Not available.
NFPA Rating:
(estimated) Health: 3; Flammability: 2; Instability: 2
Section 6 - Accidental Release Measures
|
General Information: Use proper personal protective equipment as indicated
in Section 8.
Spills/Leaks:
Absorb spill with inert material (e.g. vermiculite, sand or earth),
then place in suitable container. Clean up spills immediately,
observing precautions in the Protective Equipment section. Remove all
sources of ignition. Use a spark-proof tool. Provide ventilation. Do
not get water inside containers. Evacuate unnecessary personnel.
Approach spill from upwind.
Section 7 - Handling and Storage
|
Handling:
Wash thoroughly after handling. Remove contaminated clothing and
wash before reuse. Use spark-proof tools and explosion proof
equipment. Avoid contact with eyes, skin, and clothing. Empty
containers retain product residue, (liquid and/or vapor), and can be
dangerous. Do not pressurize, cut, weld, braze, solder, drill, grind,
or expose empty containers to heat, sparks or open flames. Keep away
from heat, sparks and flame. Do not breathe vapor or mist. Inform
laundry personnel of contaminant's hazards. Isocyanates react with
water to form CO2 gas. This gas can cause sealed containers to expand
and possibly rupture. Use only with adequate ventilation or
respiratory protection. Never work alone with this chemical.
Storage:
Refrigerator/flammables. Store in tightly closed containers to
prevent moisture contamination. Do not reseal if contamination is
suspected.
Section 8 - Exposure Controls, Personal Protection
|
Engineering Controls:
Facilities storing or utilizing this material should be equipped
with an eyewash facility and a safety shower. Use process enclosure,
local exhaust ventilation, or other engineering controls to control
airborne levels.
