SECTION 4 - FIRE & EXPLOSION HAZARD DATA

Flash Point:
0˚F (-17.8˚C)

Flammable Limits (in air):
LEL: 1.2%; UEL: 7%

Extinguishing Media:
Dry chemical, carbon dioxide, water fog or foam. Do not use a direct water stream. Product will float and can re-ignite.

Fire Fighting Procedures:
Use water spray to cool adjacent surfaces and fire exposed containers. Protect against inhalation of combustion products.

Firefighters should wear full protective clothing including self-contained breathing apparatus to prevent inhalation of smoke and decomposition products. Toxic fumes and vapors may be involved.

Hazardous Decomposition Products:
Carbon Dioxide, Carbon Monoxide, acrid smoke and irritating fumes.

Special Fire & Explosion Hazards:
Flammable liquid. Vapors are heavier than air and can flow along surfaces to ignition sources and flash-back. Keep work areas free from open flames, sparks, hot metal surfaces and other sources of ignition. Ground objects prone to static electricity.

Method Used:
TCC

Auto-Ignition Temperature:
Not Established

SECTION 5 - HEALTH HAZARD DATA

Permissible Exposure Limit:
Not Established

Signs and Symptoms of Exposure:
Dizziness, nausea or vomiting. Difficulty in breathing. Sensitive individuals may exhibit eye, nose, throat or dermal irritation with prolonged exposure to processing fumes or vapors. Liquid can cause eye and skin irritation.

Effects of Overexposure:
Medical Conditions Aggravated by Exposure:
Toxic fumes may be released during fire. Exposure to fumes may aggravate pre-existing eye, lung, and skin conditions. Individuals with neurological diseases should avoid exposure to hexane. Individuals who are sensitized to Isocyanates, and those with pre-existing lung diseases or conditions, including non-specific bronchial hyperactivity or asthma, must avoid all exposure to Isocyanates.

Acute:
Irritation to eyes, lungs, and mucous membranes.

Primary Route of Exposure:
Skin absorption and inhalation.
Toluene LC50: 8,000ppm/4hr, rat; Polyisocyanate LC50:
<1,150 mg/m³, rat: Xlyene LC50: 5,000 ppm/4hr, rat;
Toluene LD50: 5 g/kg, rat; HDI LD50: 10 g/kg, rat; Xylene LD50: 4.3 g/kg, rat.

Chronic:
Excess exposure can cause CNS depression, headache, nausea, narcosis, and liver and kidney damage.

Acute Oral LD50
>8 ML/KG (Rat)

Acute Dermal LD50
>4 ML/KG (Rat)

Acute Inhalation LC50
3400 PPM/4H (Rat)

Emergency & First Aid Procedures:
Eye Contact: 
Flush with water for 15 minutes and call physician.
Skin Contact:
Clean with rubbing alcohol, followed by soap and water.
Inhalation:
Remove to fresh air. Administer oxygen or artificial respiration, if necessary. Call physician.
Ingestion:
Consult a Physician and advise as to the nature of the product. DO NOT INDUCE VOMITING.
Primary Route of Entry:
Inhalation, Skin absorption.

SECTION 6 - REACTIVITY DATA

Stability:
Stable at ambient temperatures and pressures.

Incompatibility:
Strong oxidizers, acids, bases.

Hazardous Decomposition Products:
Toxic gases or vapors, such as oxides of carbon and nitrogen along with trace of HCL may be released during a fire.

Hazardous Polymerization:
Will not occur.

Conditions to Avoid:
Avoid open flames and sparks. Avoid closed areas that restrict adequate ventilation.

SECTION 7 - SPILL OR LEAK PROCEDURES

Steps to be taken in case material is released or spilled:
Small spill:
Absorb using inert material. Use non-sparking tools. Transfer into secure containers for proper disposal. Use personal protective equipment as outlined below.

Large Spill:
Same as small spill.

Waste Disposal Method:
Dispose of as a hazardous waste in accordance with EPA/RCRA regulations 40CFR261 21(a) (1) Ignitability: D001

SECTION 8 - SPECIAL PROTECTION

Respiratory Protection:
Use NIOSH-Certified respiratory protection for organic vapor if necessary.

Eye Protection:
Impervious  glasses recommended

Protective Gloves:
Impervious gloves are recommended to prevent skin contact.

Other Protective Equipment:
Under normal application conditions, protective glasses, gloves, and clothing are adequate.

Ventilation:
Provide adequate ventilation to maintain airborne concentrations below OSHA PELs.

SECTION 9 - SPECIAL PRECAUTIONS OR OTHER COMMENTS

Storage/Handling:
Store in cool, dry, well ventilated facility.  Store and use away from all sources of direct heat and ignition. Keep containers closed when not in use.

Other Precautions:
Provide adequate ventilation and avoid prolonged or repeated contact with the skin. Wash with soap and water after contact.

Work/Hygienic Practices:
Maintain good personal hygiene practices. Wash contaminated clothing before reuse. Do not eat, drink, or smoke in work areas. Wash exposed skin before eating, drinking, smoking, or applying cosmetics.
