Health and Saftey
Fully reacted polyurethane polymer, CAS # 9009-54-5 (CAS registry
number), is chemically inert. In the United States, no exposure limits have been
established by OSHA (Occupational Safety and Health Administration) or ACGIH (American
Conference of Governmental Industrial Hygienists). It is not regulated by OSHA for
carcinogenicity. Polyurethane polymer is a combustible solid and will ignite if
exposed to an open flame for a sufficient period of time. Decomposition products
include carbon monoxide, oxides of nitrogen, and hydrogen cyanide. Firefighters
should wear self-contained breathing apparatus in enclosed areas. Polyurethane polymer
dust can cause mechanical irritation to the eyes and lungs. Proper hygiene controls
and personal protective equipment (PPE), such as gloves, dust masks, respirators,
mechanical ventilation, and protective clothing and eye wear should be used. Liquid
resin blends and isocyanates may contain hazardous or regulated components. They
should be handled in accordance with manufacturer recommendations found on product
labels, and in MSDS (Material Safety Data Sheet) and product technical literature.
Isocyanates are known skin and respiratory sensitizers, and proper engineering controls
should be in place to prevent exposure to isocyanate liquid and vapor. In the United
States, additional health and safety information can be found through organizations
such as the Polyurethane Manufacturers Association (PMA) and the Center for the
Polyurethanes Industry (CPI), as well as from polyurethane system and raw material
manufacturers. Regulatory information can be found in the Code of Federal Regulations
Title 21 (Food and Drugs) and Title 40 (Protection of the Environment).
