Eye contact: Immediately flush eyes with water; remove contact lenses, if present, after the first 5
minutes, then continue flushing eyes for at least 15 minutes. Obtain medical attention without delay,
preferably from an ophthalmologist. Suitable emergency eye wash facility should be immediately
available.
Ingestion: If swallowed, seek medical attention. Do not induce vomiting unless directed to do so by
medical personnel.
Most important symptoms and effects, both acute and delayed: Aside from the information found
under Description of first aid measures (above) and Indication of immediate medical attention and
special treatment needed (below), any additional important symptoms and effects are described in
Section 11: Toxicology Information.
Indication of any immediate medical attention and special treatment needed
Notes to physician: Maintain adequate ventilation and oxygenation of the patient. May cause
respiratory sensitization or asthma-like symptoms. Bronchodilators, expectorants and antitussives
may be of help. Treat bronchospasm with inhaled beta2 agonist and oral or parenteral corticosteroids.
Respiratory symptoms, including pulmonary edema, may be delayed. Persons receiving significant
exposure should be observed 24-48 hours for signs of respiratory distress. Exposure may increase
“myocardial irritability”. Do not administer sympathomimetic drugs such as epinephrine unless
absolutely necessary. If you are sensitized to diisocyanates, consult your physician regarding working
with other respiratory irritants or sensitizers. Treatment of exposure should be directed at the control
of symptoms and the clinical condition of the patient. Excessive exposure may aggravate preexisting
asthma and other respiratory disorders (e.g. emphysema, bronchitis, reactive airways dysfunction
syndrome).
5. FIREFIGHTING MEASURES
Suitable extinguishing media: Water fog or fine spray. Dry chemical fire extinguishers. Carbon
dioxide fire extinguishers. Foam. Alcohol resistant foams (ATC type) are preferred. General purpose
synthetic foams (including AFFF) or protein foams may function, but will be less effective.
Unsuitable extinguishing media: Do not use direct water stream. Straight or direct water streams
may not be effective to extinguish fire.
Special hazards arising from the substance or mixture
Hazardous combustion products: During a fire, smoke may contain the original material in addition
to combustion products of varying composition which may be toxic and/or irritating. Combustion
products may include and are not limited to: Nitrogen oxides. Isocyanates. Hydrogen chloride.
Carbon monoxide. Carbon dioxide. Hydrogen cyanide.
Unusual Fire and Explosion Hazards: Contains flammable propellant. Aerosol cans exposed to fire
can rupture and become flaming projectiles. Propellant release may result in a fireball. Vapors are
heavier than air and may travel a long distance and accumulate in low lying areas. Ignition and/or flash
back may occur. Dense smoke is produced when product burns.
Advice for firefighters
Fire Fighting Procedures: Keep people away. Isolate fire and deny unnecessary entry. Stay
upwind. Keep out of low areas where gases (fumes) can accumulate. Water may not be effective in
extinguishing fire. Do not use direct water stream. May spread fire. Fight fire from protected location
or safe distance. Consider the use of unmanned hose holders or monitor nozzles. Eliminate ignition
