2- COMPOSITION/INFORMATION ON INGREDIENTS :
CHEMICAL NAME C.A.S QTY%
1. Di-(methylthio)toluenediamine 106264-79-3 60-70
2. Isopropylnapthtanlene 38640-62-9 10-20
3. Polyether Polyol 25190-06-1 10-10
3- HAZARDS IDENTIFICATION :
POTENTIAL HEALTH HAZARD
Eye: May cause moderate eye irritation.
Skin: Prolonged exposure may cause slight irritation. A single prolonged exposure is not likely to result in the
material being absorbed through skin in harmful amounts. Chronic Overexposure: (Target Organ) - Kidney
Ingestion: Single dose oral toxicity is considered to be low; may cause irritation to mouth, throat, and
gastrointestinal tract.
Inhalation: At room temperature, exposures to vapors are minimal due to physical properties; higher
temperatures may generate vapor levels sufficient to cause irritation.
4- FIRST AID MEASURES :
- Change any soiled clothing immediately.
- In case of eye contact : open eyelids as far as possible and flush with large quantities of water for at least
fifteen minutes. Seek immediate medical attention.
- In case of skin contact : physically remove the product and wash skin thoroughly with soap and water.
Consult a physician if skin irritation occurs.
- In case of swallowing : dilute with water and induce vomiting; seek immediate medical attention.
- In case of inhalation : remove the patient from the contaminated area. Consult physician if after-affects occur.
5- FIRE-FIGHTING MEASURES :
5-1 Fire-extinguisher types :
- Use : chemical foam, CO2, powder. Where the fire is of major proportions, water spray may also be used.
5-2 Specific fire and explosion risks :
Incomplete combustion may produce carbon monoxide and/or carbon dioxide. Closed containers may explode
when exposed to extreme heat or burst when contaminated with water; cool with water spray.
5-3 specific protective measures during firefighting :
Firefighting personnel should be equipped with insulated, autonomous respiratory protection equipment.
