6. accidental release measures

Spill Clean Up Methods

Clean up personnel should use respiratory and/or liquid contact protection.
Extinguish all ignition sources. Avoid sparks, flames, heat and smoking. Ventilate.

7. handling and storage

Usage Precautions

Keep away from sparks and open flames. Avoid spilling, skin and eye contact. The accumulation of contaminated rags and of dry over-spray, particularly in spray booth filters, may result in spontaneous combustion. Ensure good housekeeping standards, regular safe removal of waste materials and regular maintenance of spray. Booths filters will minimise the risks of spontaneous combustion and other fire hazards.

Storage Precautions

Keep in cool dry ventilated storage and closed containers. Keep containers tightly closed.

Storage Criteria

Flammable liquid storage

11. toxicological info

Toxicological Information

Based on the properties of the isocyanate content of this product, respiratory exposure may cause acute irritation and/or sensitisation of the respiratory system, resulting in asthmatic symptoms, wheezing and a tightness of the chest. Sensitised persons may subsequently show asthmatic symptoms when exposed to airborne concentrations of isocyanates well below the occupational exposure limit. Repeated
exposure may lead to permanent respiratory disability. Persons exposed to isocyanate containing products are subject to appropriate health surveillance. Employees should be provided with a copy of the HSE pocket card containing information on isocynate spray paints.

Route of entry

Ingestion. Skin absorption.
