Section 3 ?Hazards Identification
Effects of overexposure:
Inhalation: Prolonged and/or repeated exposure can cause severe respiratory irritation.
Exposure may cause allergic respiratory reaction. Overexposure could cause
sensitization in some individuals resulting in asthma-like symptoms even at
exposures lower than the TLV.
Eyes: Contact may cause irritation and/or moderate or severe eye injury. May
cause clouding of the eye surface.
Skin: May cause moderate skin irritation, skin burns, and possible sensitization.
Symptoms may appear with exposure at very low levels to those previously
sensitized.
Ingestion: Harmful is swallowed.

Section 4 ?First Aid Measures
Inhalation: Move subject to fresh air. If not breathing then give artificial respiration. Get
medical attention immediately.
Eye Contact: Flush with water initially and remove contact lenses. Continue to flush eyes
with large amounts of water for 15 minutes. Get medical attention
immediately.
Skin Contact: Remove contaminated clothing and shoes/boots. Wash affected area with
large amounts of soap and water. Get medical attention immediately.
Ingestion: If swallowed give two glasses of water to drink. Do not induce vomiting. Get
medical attention immediately. Never give anything by mouth to an
unconscious person.
Section 5 ?Fire-Fighting Measures
Flash Point: 80癋
Autoignition Temperature: Not established
Flammable Limits in Air:
LEL: 1%
UEL: 7%
Extinguishing Media: Water, carbon dioxide, foam or dry powder
Fire-Fighting Instructions: Use water spray to cool non-involved containers.
Fire-Fighting Equipment: Wear SCBA with full-face piece operating in a positive pressure
demand mode and full protective gear.
Fire or Explosion Hazards: This product is considered combustible and is a fire hazard. During
a fire isocyanate vapors and other irritating gases may be generated
by thermal decomposition or combustion. At temperatures above
400癋, polymeric MDI can polymerize and decompose which can
cause pressure build-up in closed containers. Use cold water ot
cool fire-exposed containers.
Section 6 ?Accidental Release Measures
Spill / Leak Procedures: Shut off ignition sources including electrical equipment and
flames. Contain spilled material. Absorb spills with inert material
such as vermiculite, dry sand or earth. Place in a closed container
but do not seal. Ventilate area to remove vapors.
Disposal: Disposal should be in accordance with local, state, and federal
regulations. The preferred method of liquid waste is incineration.
Cured, solid waste is considered non-hazardous and may be land
filled if allowed. Keep all waste from entering sewers, drains or
waterways.

Section 7 ?Handling and Storage
Handling Precautions: Avoid prolonged or repeated skin contact. Avoid breathing
aerosols, spray mists, and heated vapors. Use only in well
ventilated area. Use good personal and industrial hygiene practices.
Keep container closed after each use.
Storage Requirements: Recommended storage range is less than 90癋.
Section 8 ?Exposure Controls / Personal Protection
Ventilation: Use local exhaust ventilation and engineering controls to keep
vapors below the recommended exposure limits.
Respiratory Protection: Wear suitable respirator (MSHA/NIOSH approved or equivalent)
where exposure limits are exceeded.

Protective Equipment: Impervious gloves, avoid all skin contact by covering as much of
the exposed skin area as possible with appropriate clothing.
Eye Protection: Chemical splash goggles (ANSI Z-87.1 or approved equivalent)
and/or face shield. Have an eye wash station available.
