include coughing, difficult breathing and a feeling of tightness in the chest. Occasionally, breathing
difficulties may be life threatening.
Repeated Dose Toxicity
Contains a component which is reported to be a weak organophosphate-type cholinesterase inhibitor.
Excessive exposure may produce organophosphate type cholinesterase inhibition. Signs and
symptoms of excessive exposure may be headache, dizziness, incoordination, muscle twitching,
tremors, nausea, abdominal cramps, diarrhea, sweating, pinpoint pupils, blurred vision, salivation,
tearing, tightness in chest, excessive urination, convulsions. Tissue injury in the upper respiratory tract
and lungs has been observed in laboratory animals after repeated excessive exposures to
MDI/polymeric MDI aerosols. For the component(s) tested: In animals, effects have been reported on
the following organs: Kidney. Bone marrow. Liver.
Chronic Toxicity and Carcinogenicity
Lung tumors have been observed in laboratory animals exposed to respirable aerosol droplets of
MDI/Polymeric MDI (6 mg/m3) for their lifetime. Tumors occurred concurrently with respiratory
irritation and lung injury. Current exposure guidelines are expected to protect against these effects
reported for MDI.
Developmental Toxicity
In laboratory animals, MDI/polymeric MDI did not cause birth defects; other fetal effects occurred only
at high doses which were toxic to the mother.
Genetic Toxicology
In vitro genetic toxicity studies were negative for component(s) tested. Genetic toxicity data on MDI
are inconclusive. MDI was weakly positive in some in vitro studies; other in vitro studies were negative.
Animal mutagenicity studies were predominantly negative.
12. Ecological Information
CHEMICAL FATE
Data for Component: Diphenylmethane-4,4'-diisocyanate (MDI), isomers(1) and homologues(2),
blending of (1) and (2)
Movement & Partitioning
In the aquatic and terrestrial environment, movement is expected to be limited by its reaction
with water forming predominantly insoluble polyureas.
Persistence and Degradability
In the aquatic and terrestrial environment, material reacts with water forming predominantly
insoluble polyureas which appear to be stable. In the atmospheric environment, material is
expected to have a short tropospheric half-life, based on calculations and by analogy with
related diisocyanates.
