HEALTH HAZARD DATA
Permissible Exposure Limit:
Effects of Overexposure: May cause skin or eye irritation upon contact. Avoid breathing vapors. The dense vapors
can displace and reduce breathing air in confined or unventilated spaces causing asphyxiation. Overexposure may
cause tremors, confusion, irritation, and may result in cardiac sensitization.
First Aid Procedures
Eyes: Flush with water for at least 15 minutes. See a physician if irritation develops.
Skin: Wash with soap and water at first opportunity.
Inhalation: Move to fresh air if symptoms develop. If breathing is difficult, give
oxygen and call physician.
Ingestion: Induce vomiting; get medical attention.
SPECIAL PROTECTION INFORMATION
Ventilation: Local exhaust ventilation is recommended when working with this product. Uses requiring heating
and/or spraying may require more ventilation or personal protective equipment.
Respiratory Protection: The specific respirator selected must be based on contamination levels of this material found
in the workplace and the working limits of the respirator. A supplied air, full-face mask, positive pressure or
continuous flow respirator or a supplied air hood is required when airborne concentrations are unknown or exceed
threshold limit values. A positive pressure, self contained breathing apparatus can be used in emergencies or other
unusual situations. Full-face air purifying respirators equipped with organic vapor cartridges can be used in certain
situations, see OSHA standard 29CFR 1910.134. All equipment must be NIOSH approved and maintained.
Eye Protection: Goggles or chemical safety glasses.
Gloves: Chemically resistant rubber or plastic.
Other: Avoid eye and skin contact. Eye wash system and showers should be available.
SPILL OR LEAK PROCEDURES
Remove or extinguish ignition or combustion sources.
Contain spill. Absorb with sawdust, etc., and shovel into container. Waste material should be disposed of under
conditions which meet federal, state, and local environmental regulations.
Wash area with detergent and water.
SPECIAL PRECAUTIONS
Store between 65癋 and 85癋 out of sunlight. Keep tightly sealed. Relieve pressure slowly when opening container.
R Component drums can be sent to drum reconditioners or disposed of as ordinary industrial waste in compliance with
pertinent regulations.
CAUTION: Under no circumstances should empty drums be burned or cut open with an electric or gas torch.

SHIPPING INFORMATION
Not regulated when shipped by land, water or air when packaged in single containers of 5000 pounds or less.
PHYSICAL DATA
Boiling Point (癋): 625癋
Specific Gravity: 1.24
Solubility in Water: Insoluble, reacts
% Volatile by Volume: None
Appearance and Odor: Brown liquid, slight aromatic odor
FIRE AND EXPLOSION HAZARD DATA
Flash Point (test method): 390癋 (P-M)
Extinguishing Media: Water, dry chemicals, CO2
Special Fire Fighting Procedures: A self-contained breathing apparatus should be worn to protect against toxic and
irritating vapors.
Unusual Fire and Explosion Hazards: At temperatures above 400癋, MDI can polymerize/decompose causing
pressure build-up in closed containers and possibly rupture. Avoid water contamination in closed containers which
may cause rupture (CO2 is evolved).
REACTIVITY DATA
Stability: Stable Conditions to Avoid: Contamination with water
Polymerization: May occur from contact with water, alcohols, glycols or other materials containing active hydrogens.
Incompatibility: Water, alcohols, amines, strong bases.
Hazardous Decomposition Products: By high heat or fire; CO, CO2, NOx, benzene, toluene, aliphatic fragments,
traces of HCN

material designated herein. NCFI assumes no legal responsibility for use or reliance upon these data.
HEALTH HAZARD DATA
Permissible Exposure Limit: 0.02 ppm ceiling for MDI.
Effects of Overexposure: May cause skin or eye irritation upon contact. Inhalation of MDI vapors may cause
breathlessness, chest discomfort, coughing and reduced pulmonary functions. Exposure may produce asthma-like
symptoms, also may lead to allergic sensitivity.
First Aid Procedures
Eyes: Flush with flowing water for at least 15 minutes, then obtain medical attention.
Skin: Remove contaminated clothing and wash off with soap & water.
Inhalation: Remove to fresh air, administer oxygen if necessary.
Ingestion: Drink large amounts of water. See a physician.
SPECIAL PROTECTION INFORMATION
Ventilation: MDI has a very low vapor pressure at room temperature. General/local ventilation typically control
exposure levels very adequately. Uses requiring heating and/or spraying may require more aggressive engineering
controls or personal protective equipment. Monitoring is required to determine engineering controls.
Respiratory Protection: The specific respirator selected must be based on contamination levels of this material found
in the workplace and the working limits of the respirator. A supplied air, full-face mask, positive pressure or
continuous flow respirator or a supplied air hood is required when airborne concentrations are unknown or exceed
threshold limit values. A positive pressure, self contained breathing apparatus can be used in emergencies or other
unusual situations. Full-face air purifying respirators equipped with organic vapor cartridges can be used in certain
situations, see OSHA standard 29CFR 1910.134. All equipment must be NIOSH approved and maintained.
Eye Protection: Wear goggles or chemical safety glasses.
Gloves: Chemically resistant rubber or plastic.
Other: Avoid eye and skin contact. Eye wash system and safety showers should be available.
SPILL OR LEAK PROCEDURES
Contain spill. Absorb with sawdust, etc., and shovel into open top drum. Decontaminate absorbent and spill area with
2% detergent/water solution. Let waste stand for 1 to 2 days, then dispose of waste in a licensed facility. Respiratory
protection/ventilation is recommended during clean-up.
SPECIAL PRECAUTIONS
Store between 65癋 and 85癋 out of sunlight. Keep tightly sealed to prevent moisture contamination. Relieve pressure
slowly when opening container. Once opened, protect contents from water with dry atmosphere (-40癋 dew point). If
isocyanate becomes contaminated, do not reseal. Empty isocyanate drums or other container should be
decontaminated by filling with water or decontamination solution, preferably outdoors. Allow to stand for 24-48
hours, open to the atmosphere. DO NOT SEAL DRUMS OR CONTAINERS. Drain the drums and puncture to
prevent reuse. Dispose of as ordinary industrial waste.
