Polyesters can burn if exposed to flame. In the event of fire, use normal fire fighting procedures to prevent inhalation of smoke and gases. The products listed above are articles as so defined by the OSHA Hazard Communication Standard at 29 CFR 1910.1200.Each has an end-use that is dependant upon its shape and design, and will not release or otherwise result in exposure to hazardous chemicals under normal conditions of use. Consequently, no health effects from working with these products are expected to occur. However, exposure to chemical substances may occur as a result of processing these fibers.
Isocyanates can be strong sensitizer, with exposure resulting in possible allergic reactions.
Not applicable Eyes Not applicable Target Organs None. Hazardous Combustion Products Combustion products will be comprised of compounds of carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen. The exact composition will depend on the conditions of combustion. For large scale fires, alcohol-resistant foams are preferred, if available. General purpose synthetic foams or protein foams may function, but much less effectively.
