Section 2 - Composition, Information on Ingredients

CAS#	Chemical Name	Percent	EINECS/ELINCS
3320-83-0	2-Chlorophenyl isocyanate	99	222-023-7

Section 3 - Hazards Identification

Appearance: clear, colorless liquid. Flash Point: 88 deg C.
Danger! May be fatal if inhaled. Water-reactive. May cause allergic respiratory and skin reaction. Causes eye, skin, and respiratory tract irritation. Combustible liquid and vapor. May cause lung damage.
Target Organs: Lungs, eyes, skin.


Potential Health Effects
Eye: Causes eye irritation. Lachrymator (substance which increases the flow of tears). May cause severe eye irritation and possible injury.
Skin: Causes skin irritation. May be harmful if absorbed through the skin. 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: Harmful if swallowed. May cause gastrointestinal irritation with nausea, vomiting and diarrhea.
Inhalation: Causes respiratory tract irritation. May cause allergic respiratory reaction. May cause irritation of the respiratory tract with burning pain in the nose and throat, coughing, wheezing, shortness of breath and pulmonary edema. Impaired lung functions (decreased ventilatory capacity) has been associated with overexposure to isocyanate.
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. Use water spray to keep fire-exposed containers cool. Fire or excessive heat may result in violent rupture of the container due to bulk polymerization. Combustible liquid and vapor. Approach fire from upwind to avoid hazardous vapors and toxic decomposition products. Evacuate unnecessary personnel. 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: In case of fire, use carbon dioxide or dry chemical.
Flash Point: 88 deg C ( 190.40 deg F)
Autoignition Temperature: Not available.
Explosion Limits, Lower:Not available.
Upper: Not available.
NFPA Rating: (estimated) Health: 3-4; 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 expose spill to water. 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. Avoid contact with eyes, skin, and clothing. Empty containers retain product residue, (liquid and/or vapor), and can be dangerous. Keep container tightly closed. Do not allow contact with water. 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 spray 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: Keep away from heat, sparks, and flame. Keep away from sources of ignition. Keep container closed when not in use. Store in a tightly closed container. Store in a cool, dry, well-ventilated area away from incompatible substances.

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 adequate general or local explosion-proof ventilation to keep airborne levels to acceptable levels.
