SECTION VI - HEALTH HAZARD DATA FORM LIFE
POTENTIAL EFFECTS OF EXPOSURE (listed by primary routes of entry)
INHALATION: Vapors may cause irritation of the respiratory tract. Vapors emitted from high temperature
processes may cause sensitization. Excessive exposure to vapors or spray mists can result in headache,
dizziness, incoordination, nausea and loss of consciousness.
SKIN: Prolonged or repeated skin contact may cause irritation and dermatitis.
INGESTION: Irritation of mucous membranes of the mouth, throat, esophagus and stomach.
EYE CONTACT: Contact with eyes may cause burning and tearing. Overexposure may cause asthmatic
respiratory reactions.
EMERGENCY & FIRST AID PROCEDURES
INHALATION: Remove victim to fresh air. If difficulty noted in breathing, get medical attention at once.
SKIN: Wash affected areas with soap and water.
INGESTION: If this product is swallowed, do not induce vomiting. Seek immediate medical advice and/or
attention.
EYE CONTACT: Flush with water for 15 minutes and get medical attention.
CARCINOGENICITY OSHA: No NTP: Yes IARC: No
Toluene Diisocyanate is listed as a suspect carcinogen by the National Toxicology Program.

SeeSection VIII for Personal Protective Equipment (PPE).
SECTION VII - PRECAUTIONS FOR SAFE HANDLING & USE
STEPS TO BE TAKEN IN CASE MATERIAL IS RELEASED OR SPILLED: Ventilate area. Absorb spill with
suitable absorbent material and place in a closed container. For large spills, dike area and pump into closed
containers. Prevent this material from entering waterways. Wear protective equipment during clean up.
WASTE DISPOSAL METHOD: This material has been tested and found to have a flash point below 140oF. If
discarded, this material and containers should be treated as hazardous waste based on the characteristic of
ignitability as defined under federal RCRA regulations. (40 CRF 261). Disposal of this material or its containers
requires compliance with applicable labeling, packaging, and record keeping standards. Dispose only in a facility
permitted for disposal of hazardous waste.
PRECAUTIONS TO BE TAKEN IN HANDLING & STORAGE: Avoid inhalation of heated vapors or spray mists.
Avoid prolonged or repeated skin contact.
OTHER PRECAUTIONS: Eye wash fountain and safety shower should be available.
SECTION VIII - CONTROL MEASURES
RESPIRATORY PROTECTION (specify type): Required if material is used in poorly ventilated areas or if material
is sprayed or heated. If TLV is exceeded, use self contained NIOSH approved cartridge respirator or breathing
apparatus.
VENTILATION: General ventilation is required.
LOCAL EXHAUST: If sprayed or heated
PROTECTIVE GLOVES: Chemical resistant EYE PROTECTION: Chemical goggles
OTHER PROTECTIVE CLOTHING OR EQUIPMENT: Eye wash station and safety shower should be available.
