MEDICAL CONDITIONS PRONE TO AGGRAVATION BY
EXPOSURE: None known
PRIMARY ROUTES OF ENTRY: Eye contact, Skin contact
HEALTH HAZARDS (acute and chronic) / EFFECTS OF OVEREXPOSURE:
1. Eye contact with this product may produce irritation.
2. Repeated or prolonged contact may cause mild skin irritation.
3. Inhalation of product vapors is not expected to pose a significant health hazard due to the low vapor pressure of the product.
4. Ingestion of this product may be harmful.
SECTION VI - REACTIVITY DATA
STABILITY: Stable
HAZARDOUS POLYMERIZATION: Will not occur.
HAZARDOUS DECOMPOSITION PRODUCTS (Under fire conditions): Burning polyurethane foams produce toxic decomposition products that are not significantly different from those of other nitrogen-containing polymer such as wool, leather, nylon, and ABS. The major toxicants are carbon monoxide, oxides of nitrogen, hydrogen cyanide.
INCOMPATIBILITY: Strong acids, alkalis and oxidizing agents.
CONDITIONS TO AVOID: Contact with incompatible materials.
SECTION VII - SPILL OR LEAK PROCEDURES
STEPS TO BE TAKEN IN CASE MATERIAL IS RELEASED OR SPILLED: Collect as normal solid waste.
