SDS
Hands/feet protection
NOTE:
The material may produce skin sensitisation in predisposed individuals. Care must be taken, when removing gloves and other protective
equipment, to avoid all possible skin contact.
Contaminated leather items, such as shoes, belts and watch-bands should be removed and destroyed.
The selection of suitable gloves does not only depend on the material, but also on further marks of quality which vary from manufacturer to
manufacturer. Where the chemical is a preparation of several substances, the resistance of the glove material can not be calculated in advance
and has therefore to be checked prior to the application.
The exact break through time for substances has to be obtained from the manufacturer of the protective gloves and has to be observed when
making a final choice.
Do NOT wear natural rubber (latex gloves).
Isocyanate resistant materials include Teflon, Viton, nitrile rubber and some PVA gloves.
Protective gloves and overalls should be worn as specified in the appropriate national standard.
Contaminated garments should be removed promptly and should not be re-used until they have been decontaminated.
DO NOT
use skin cream unless necessary and then use only minimum amount.
Isocyanate vapour may be absorbed into skin cream and this increases hazard.
Body protection
See Other protection below
Other protection
All employees working with isocyanates must be informed of the hazards from exposure to the contaminant and the precautions necessary to
prevent damage to their health. They should be made aware of the need to carry out their work so that as little contamination as possible is
produced, and of the importance of the proper use of all safeguards against exposure to themselves and their fellow workers. Adequate training,
both in the proper execution of the task and in the use of all associated engineering controls, as well as of any personal protective equipment, is
essential.
Overalls.
P.V.C apron.
Barrier cream.
Type A-P Filter of sufficient capacity. (AS/NZS 1716 & 1715, EN 143:2000 & 149:2001, ANSI Z88 or national equivalent)
Cartridge respirators should never be used for emergency ingress or in areas of unknown vapour concentrations or oxygen content.
The wearer must be warned to leave the contaminated area immediately on detecting any odours through the respirator. The odour may indicate that the mask is not functioning
properly, that the vapour concentration is too high, or that the mask is not properly fitted. Because of these limitations, only restricted use of cartridge respirators is considered
appropriate.
Cartridge performance is affected by humidity. Cartridges should be changed after 2 hr of continuous use unless it is determined that the humidity is less than 75%, in which case,
cartridges can be used for 4 hr. Used cartridges should be discarded daily, regardless of the length of time used
For spraying or operations which might generate aerosols:
Full face respirator with supplied air.
In certain circumstances, personal protection of the individual employee is necessary. Personal protective devices should be regarded as being supplementary to substitution and
engineering control and should not be used in preference to them as they do nothing to eliminate the hazard.
However, in some situations, minimising exposure to isocyanates by enclosure and ventilation is not possible, and occupational exposure standards may be exceeded, particularly
during on-site mixing of paints, spray-painting, foaming and maintenance of machine and ventilation systems. In these situations, air-line respirators or self-contained breathing
apparatus complying with the appropriate nationals standard must be used.
Organic vapour respirators with particulate pre- filters and powered, air-purifying respirators are NOT suitable.
Personal protective equipment must be appropriately selected, individually fitted and workers trained in their correct use and maintenance. Personal protective equipment must be
regularly checked and maintained to ensure that the worker is being protected.
Air- line respirators or self-contained breathing apparatus complying with the appropriate national standard should be used during the clean-up of spills and the repair or clean-up
of contaminated equipment and similar situations which cause emergency exposures to hazardous atmospheric concentrations of isocyanate.
