EMERGENCY OVERVIEW
POTENTIAL HEALTH EFFECTS Eyes: Skin:
Ingestion: Inhalation: Systemic (other target organs) Effects:
Cancer Information: Teratology (Birth Defects):
SECTION 4 – FIRST AID PROCEDURES
Brown liquid. Slightly Musty. Sprayed or heated material harmful if inhaled. May cause an allergic skin reaction. May cause allergic respiratory reaction and lung injury. Avoid temperatures above 105°F (41°C). Toxic flammable gases and heat are released under decomposition conditions. Toxic fumes may be released in fire situations. Reacts slowly with water, releasing carbon dioxide, which can cause pressure buildup and rupture of closed containers. Elevated temperatures accelerate this process.
(See section 11 for toxicological data) May cause moderate eye irritation. May cause very slight transient (temporary) corneal injury.
Prolonged or repeated exposure may cause slight irritation. May cause allergic skin reaction in susceptible individuals. Animal studies have shown that skin contact with isocyanates may play a role in respiratory sensitization. May stain skin. A single prolonged exposure is not likely to result in the material being absorbed in harmful amounts.
Single-dose oral toxicity is considered to below. No hazards anticipated from swallowing small amounts incidental to normal handling operations.
At room temperature, vapours are minimal due to low vapour pressure. Excessive exposure may cause irritation of the eyes, upper respiratory tract, and pulmonary oedema (fluid in lungs). May cause respiratory sensitization to susceptible individuals. MDI concentrations below the exposure guidelines may cause allergic respiratory reactions in individuals already sensitized. Symptoms may include coughing, difficulty breathing and a feeling of tightness in the chest. Effects may be delayed. Decreased lung function has been associated with overexposure to isocyanates.
Tissue injury in the upper respiratory tract and lung has been observed in laboratory animals after repeated excessive exposures to MDI/polymeric MDI aerosols.
Lung tumours have been observed in laboratory animals exposed to aerosol droplets of MDI/Polymeric MDI (6 mg/m3) for their lifetime. Tumours occurred concurrently with respiratory irritation and lung injury. Current exposure guidelines are expected to protect against these effects reported by MDI.
In laboratory animals, MDI/polymeric MDI did not cause birth defects; other fetal effects occurred only at high doses which were toxic to the mother.
Eye Contact: Irrigate with flowing water immediately and continuously for 15 minutes.
Consult medical personnel.
Skin Contact: Remove material from skin immediately by washing with soap and plenty of water (warm water is preferable if readily available) . Remove contaminated clothing and shoes while washing. Seek medical attention if irritation persists. An MDI skin decontamination study demonstrated that cleaning very soon after exposure is important and that a polyglycol-based skin cleanser or corn oil may be more effective than soap and water.
Ingestion: Inhalation:
NOTE TO PHYSICIAN:
If swallowed, seek medical attention. Do not induce vomiting unless directed to do so by medical personnel.
Remove to fresh air. If not breathing, give artificial respiration. If breathing is difficult, oxygen should be administered by qualified personnel. Call a physician or transport to a medical facility.
No specific antidote. Supportive care. Treatment based on the judgment of the physician in response to reactions of the patient. May cause respiratory sensitization or asthma-like symptoms. Bronchodilators, expectorants, and antitussives may be of help. Respiratory symptoms, including pulmonary oedema, may be delayed. Persons receiving significant exposure should be observed for 24-48 hours for signs of respiratory distress.
SECTION 5 – FIRE FIGHTING MEASURES
Flash Point Autoignition Temperature Flammability Limits Hazardous Combustion Products
Other Flammability Information: Extinguishing Media: Fire Fighting Instructions:
>400°F (204°C)(estimated) via PMCC, ASTM D93 >1100°F (600°C) LFL: Not Applicable; UFL: Not Applicable During a fire, smoke may contain the original material in addition to unidentified toxic and/or irritating toxic and/or irritating compounds. Hazardous combustion products may include but are not limited to nitrogen oxides, isocyanates, hydrogen cyanide, carbon monoxide and carbon dioxide.
The product reacts with water. The reaction may produce heat and/or gases. The reaction may be violent. Container may rupture from gas generation in a fire situation. A violent steam generation or eruption may occur upon application of direct water stream to hot liquids. Dense smoke is produced when product burns. Spills of these organic liquids on hot fibrous insulations may lead to lowering of the autoignition temperatures possibly resulting in spontaneous combustion.
Carbon Dioxide, Dry Chemical, Foam, Water Fog or Fine Spray. Alcohol resistant foams (ATC type) are preferred if available. General-purpose synthetic foams (including AFFF) or protein foams may function, but less effectively. Do not use direct water stream. May spread the fire.
Keep people away. Isolate the fire area and deny unnecessary entry. Stay upwind. Keep out of low areas where gases (fumes) can accumulate. Water is not recommended but may
be applied in very large quantities as a fine spray when other extinguishing agents are not available. Contain fire water run-off if possible. Do not use direct water stream. May spread the fire. Fight fire from protected location or safe distance. Consider the use of an unmanned hose holder or monitor nozzles. Use water spray to cool fire exposed containers and fire-affected zone until the fire is out. Immediately withdraw all personnel from the area in case of rising sound from venting safety device or discolouration of the container. Move container from fire area if this is possible without hazard.
Protective Equipment for Firefighters: Wear positive-pressure self-contained breathing apparatus (SCBA) and protective fire fighting clothing (includes fire fighting helmet, coat, pants, boots and gloves). Avoid contact with this material during fire fighting operations. If contact is likely, change to full chemical resistant clothing with SCBA. This will not provide sufficient fire protection, consider fighting fire from a remote location. For protective equipment in post-fire or non-fire cleanup situations, refer to relevant sections.
SECTION 6 – ACCIDENTAL RELEASE MEASURES (See Section 15 for Regulatory Information) Protect People: Protect the Environment: Clean Up:
Avoid any contact. Barricade area. Clear non-emergency personnel from the area. Keep upwind of the spill. Ventilate area of leak or spill. The area must be evacuated and reentered by persons equipped for decontamination. Use appropriate safety equipment. If available, use foam to suppress vapours. For additional information, refer to “Exposure Controls/Personal Protection”, MSDS Section 8. See “Stability and Reactivity” MSDS Section 10.
Contain liquid to prevent contamination of soil, surface water or groundwater. Keep out of ditches, sewers and water supplies. Should the product enter sewers or drains, it should be pumped into an open vessel. Emergency services may need to be called to assist in the cleanup operation.
Supplies of suitable decontaminant should always be kept available. Absorb with material such as sawdust, vermiculite, dirt, sand, clay, cob grit, Milsorb. Avoid materials such as cement powder. Collect material in suitable and properly labelled open containers. Do not place in a sealed container. Prolonged contact with water results in a chemical reaction which may result in rupture of the container. Place in: poly-lined fibre packs, plastic drums or properly labelled metal containers. Remove to a well-ventilated area. Clean up floor areas. Attempt to neutralize by decontaminant solution: Formulation No. 1: Sodium Carbonate (5%- 10%), Liquid Detergent (0.2%) and water to make up 100%. Or, Formulation No. 2: Concentrated Ammonia Solution (3% – 8%), Liquid Detergent (0.2%) and water to make up 100%. If ammonia is used, use good ventilation to prevent vapour exposure. If you have any questions on how to neutralize, call Introfoam Ltd. Refer to “Disposal Information” MSDS Section 13. See Sections 7 and 15 for more specific information.
SECTION 7 – HANDLING AND STORAGE
Handling: Avoid contact of this product with water at all times during handling and storage. Use only with adequate ventilation. Keep the equipment clean. Use disposable containers and tools where possible. Do not eat, drink or smoke in the working area. Refer to “Exposure Controls/Personal Protection” MSDS Section 8.
Storage: Store in a dry place. Store between 75°F – 105°F (24°C – 41°C). Keep containers tightly closed when not in use. Protect from atmospheric moisture. Do not store product contaminated with water to prevent the potentially hazardous reaction. See “Stability and Reactivity”, MSDS Section 10.
SECTION 8 – EXPOSURE CONTROL/PERSONAL PROTECTION Engineering Controls: Personal Protective Equipment:
Use only with adequate ventilation. Provide general and/or local exhaust ventilation to control airborne levels below the exposure guidelines. Exhaust systems should be designed to move the air away from the source of vapour/aerosol generation and the people working at this point. The odour is an inadequate warning of excessive exposure.
EYE/FACE PROTECTION: USE CHEMICAL GOGGLES.
SKIN PROTECTION: USE PROTECTIVE CLOTHING IMPERVIOUS TO THIS MATERIAL. SELECTION OF SPECIFIC ITEMS SUCH AS FACESHIELD, GLOVES, BOOTS, APRON OR FULL-BODY SUIT WILL DEPEND ON THE OPERATION. REMOVE CONTAMINATED CLOTHING IMMEDIATELY, WASH SKIN WITH SOAP AND WATER (WARM WATER IF AVAILABLE) AND LAUNDER CLOTHING BEFORE REUSE. ITEMS WHICH CANNOT BE CONTAMINATED SUCH AS SHOES, BELTS AND WATCHBANDS, SHOULD BE REMOVED AND DESTROYED.
RESPIRATORY PROTECTION: ATMOSPHERIC LEVELS SHOULD BE MAINTAINED BELOW THE EXPOSURE GUIDELINE. WHEN ATMOSPHERIC LEVELS MAY EXCEED THE EXPOSURE GUIDELINE, USE AN APPROVED AIR-PURIFYING RESPIRATOR EQUIPPED WITH AN ORGANIC VAPOR SORBENT AND A FILTER FOR PARTICULATES. FOR SITUATIONS WHERE THE ATMOSPHERIC LEVELS MAY EXCEED THE LEVEL FOR WHICH AN AIR-PURIFYING RESPIRATOR IS EFFECTIVE, USE A POSITIVE- PRESSURE AIR-SUPPLYING RESPIRATOR (AIRLINE OR SELF-CONTAINED BREATHING APPARATUS). FOR EMERGENCY RESPONSE OR FOR SITUATIONS WHERE THE ATMOSPHERIC LEVEL IS UNKNOWN, USE AN APPROVED POSITIVE- PRESSURE SELF-CONTAINED BREATHING APPARATUS.

SECTION 10 – STABILITY AND REACTIVITY Chemical Stability: Conditions to
Avoid Incompatibility with Other Materials: Hazardous Decomposition Products:
Stable under recommended storage conditions. See “Handling and Storage”, MSDS Section 7.
Avoid temperatures above 105°F (41°C). Avoid temperatures below 30°F (-1°C). Can react with itself at temperatures above 320°F (160°C). The product can decompose at elevated temperatures. Generation of gas during decomposition can cause pressure in closed systems. Pressure build-up can be rapid. Avoid moisture. The material reacts slowly with water, releasing carbon dioxide, which can cause pressure buildup and rupture of closed containers. Elevated temperatures can accelerate this reaction.
Avoid contact with acids, water, alcohols, amines, ammonia, bases, moist air and strong oxidizers. Avoid contact with moist organic absorbents. Reaction with water will generate carbon dioxide and heat. Generation of gas can cause pressure buildup in closed systems. Avoid unintended contact with polyols. The reaction of polyols and isocyanates generates heat. Diisocyanates react with many materials and the rate of reaction increases with temperature as well as increased contact. These reactions can become violent. Contact is increased by stirring or if the other material mixes with the diisocyanate. Diisocyanates are not soluble in water and are denser than air and sink to the bottom, but react slowly at the interface. The reaction forms Carbon Dioxide gas and a layer of solid polyurea. See “Hazardous Polymerization” below in this section.
Hazard decomposition products depend upon temperature, air supply and the presence of other materials. Gases are released during decomposition.
Hazardous Polymerization: Can occur. Polymerization can be catalyzed by strong bases and water. Can react with itself at temperatures above 320°F (160°C).
SECTION 11 – TOXICOLOGICAL INFORMATION (See Section 3 for Potential Health Effects. For detailed toxicological data, write or call the address or non-emergency number shown in Section 1)
Acute: SKIN: The LD50 for skin absorption in rabbits is >2000 mg/kg INGESTION: The oral LD50 for rats is >10,000 mg/kg
MUTAGENICITY (EFFECTS ON GENETIC MATERIAL): Mutagenicity data on MDI is inconclusive.
MDI was weakly positive in some in-vitro (test tube) studies; other in-vitro studies were negative. A mutagenicity study in animals was negative.
SECTION 12 – ECOLOGICAL INFORMATION
Environmental Fate:
Movement and Partitioning: Based on information for MDI and polymeric MDI. In the aquatic or terrestrial environment, movement is expected to be limited by its reactivity with water forming predominantly insoluble polymers.
Degradation and Persistence: Based on information for MDI and polymeric MDI. In the aquatic and terrestrial environment, the material reacts with water forming predominantly insoluble polymers which appear to be stable. In the atmospheric environment, the material is expected to have a short tropospheric half-life, based on calculations and by analogy with related diisocyanates.
Ecotoxicity: Based on information for MDI and polymeric MDI. The measure of ecotoxicity is that of the hydrolyzed product, generally under conditions maximizing the production of soluble species. Material is practically non-toxic to aquatic organisms on an acute basis (LC50/EC50 > 100 mg/L in most sensitive species). The LC50 in earthworm Eisenia foetida is >1000 mg/kg.
SECTION 13 – DISPOSAL CONSIDERATIONS
Disposal:
