# OPTIONAL POLLUTIONPREVENTION INFORMATION To claim information in this section as confidential circle or bracketthe specific information that you claim as confidential. 

## In this section you may provide information not reported elsewhere in

## this form regarding your efforts to reduce orminimize potential risks associated with activities surrounding manufacturing, processing, use and disposal ofthe PMN substance. Please include new information pertinent to pollutionprevention, including source reduction, recycling activities and saferprocesses or products available due to the new chemical substance. Source reduction includes the reduction in the amount ortoxicity ofchemical wastes by technological modification, process and procedure modification, productreformulation, raw materials substitution, and/or inventory control. Recycling refers to the reclamation ofuseful chemical components from wastes that would otherwise be treated orreleased as air emissions orwater discharges, Or land disposal. Descriptions ofpollution prevention, source reduction and recycling should emphasize potential risk reduction subsequent to compliance with existing regulatory requirements and can be

## eitherquantitative orqualitative. The EPA is interested in the information to assess overall net reductions intoxicity orenvironmental releases and exposures, not the shifting ofrisks to other environmental media or non-environmental areas (e.g., occupational or consumer exposure). In addition, information on the relative cost or performance characteristics ofthe PMN substance to potential alternatives may be provided. All information provided in this section will be taken into consideration during the review ofthis substance. See Instructions Manual and Pollution Prevention Guidance manual for guidance and examples. Describe the expected netbenefits, such as (1) an overall reduction in risk to human health or the environment; (2) a reduction in the volume manufactured; (3) areduction in the generation ofwaste materials through recycling, source reduction or other means; (4) a reduction in potential toxicity orhuman exposure and/orenvironmental release; (5) an increase in productperformance, a decrease in the cost ofproduction and/or improved operation efficiency ofthe new chemical substance in comparison to existing chemical substances used in similarapplication; or (6) the extent to which the new chemical substance may be a substitute for an existing substance that poses a greater overall risk to human health or the environment.

# Bxtinguishing Xedia: Use water fog, foam or dry-chemical extinguishing media. 

# Pire Pighting Procedures: Personnel engaged in fighting isocyanate fires must be protected against nitrogen dioxide fumes 'as well as isocyanate vapors. Firefighters must wear self-contained breathing apparatus and turnout gear. 

# Unusual Hazards: Reacts violently with water, alcohols, amines, acides, and alkaline solutions. SECTION 5 - HEALTH EPPBCTS Routes of entry for solids and liquids include eye and skin contact, ingestion and inhalation. Routes of entry for gases include inhalation and eye contact. Skin contact may be a route of entry for liquified gases. 

# Acute Overexposure Bffects: , Eye contact with isocyanates may result in conjunctival irritation and mild corneal opacity. Skin contact may result in dermatitis, either irritative or allergic.
­ Inhalation of MDI vapors may cause irritation of the mucous membranes of the nose, throat or trachea, breathlessness, chest discomfort, difficult breathing and reduced pulmonary function. Airborne overexposure well above the PEL may result additionally in eye irritation, headache, chemical bronchitis, asthma-like findings or pulmonary edema. Isocyanates have also been reported to cause hypersensitivity pneumonitis, which is characterized by flu-like symptoms, the onset of which may be delayed. Gastrointestinal symptoms include nausea, vomiting and abdominal pain. 

# Chronic Overexposure Bffects: . Results from a lifetime inhalation study in rats indicate that MOl aerosol was carcinogenic at 6 mg/m3, the highest dose tested. This is well above the recommended TLV of 5 ppb (0.05 mg/m3). Only irritation was noted at the lower concentration of 0.2 and 1 mg/m3. No birth defects or teratogenic effects were reported in a teratology study with rats exposed to 1, 4, and 12 mg/m3 polymeric MOl for 6 hr/day on days 6-15 of gestation. Embryotoxicity and fetotoxicity was reported at the top dose in the presence of maternal toxicity. As 

## a result of previous repeated overexposures or a single large dose, certain individuals will develop isocyanate sensitization (chemical asthma) which will cause them to react to a later exposure to isocyanate at levels well below the PEL/TLV. These symptoms, which include chest tightness, wheezing, cough, shortness of breath, or asthmatic attack, could be immediate or delayed up to several hours after exposure. Similar, to many non-specific asthmatic responses, there are reports that once sensitized an individual can experience these symptoms upon exposure to dust, cold air, or other

Chronic overexposure to isocyanates has also been reported to cause lung damage, including a decrease in lung function, which may be permanent. Sensitization may be either temporary or permanent. Prolonged contact can cause reddening, swelling, rash, scaling, or blistering. In those who have developed a skin sensitization, these symptoms can develop as a result of contact with very small amounts of liquid material, or even as a result of vapor-only exposure. Pirst Aid procedures
- Skin: Wash affected areas with soap and water. Remove and launder contaminated clothing before reuse. Get immediate medical attention. Pirst Aid procedures
- Byes: Immediately rinse eyes with running water for 15

- Inqestion: If swallowed, dilute with water. DO NOT INDUCE VOMITING. Never give fluids or induce vomiting if the victim is unconscious or having convulsions. Get immediate medical attention. Pirst Aid Procedures
- Inhalation: Move to fresh air. Aid in breathing, if necessary, and get immediate medical attention. Pirst Aid Procedures
- Notes to Physicians: There is no specific antidote to counteract the effects of MDI. Care should be supportive and treatment should be based on the judgement of the physician in response to the reaction of the patient. Pirst Aid Procedures
- Aqqravated .edical Conditions: Individuals who are sensitized to isocyanates and those with pre­ exisiting lung diseases or conditions, including non-specific bronchial hyperreactivity or asth.ma, must avoid all exposure to isocyanates. Pirst Aid Procedures
- Special Precautions: None Other Pirst Aid procedures: Medical supervision of all employees who handle or come into contact with MDI is recommended. Preemployment and periodic medical examinations with respiratory function tests (FEV, 

# FVC as a minimum are suggested). Persons with asthmatic conditions chronic bronchitis, other chronic respiratory diseases, recurrent eczema or pulmonary sensitization should be excluded from working with MDI. Once a person is diagnosed as having pulmonary sensitization (allergic asthma) to MDI, further exposure is not permissible. aBCTION & -
