Important Isocyanate (ISO) Information
Isocyanates (ISO) are catalysts used in two component materials.
Isocyanate Conditions Keep Components A and B
Separate
Spraying or dispensing fluids that contain isocyanates
creates potentially harmful mists, vapors, and
atomized particulates.
• Read and understand the fluid manufacturer’s
warnings and Safety Data Sheets (SDSs) to know
specific hazards and precautions related to
isocyanates.
• Use of isocyanates involves potentially hazardous
procedures. Do not spray with this equipment
unless you are trained, qualified, and have read
and understood the information in this manual and
in the fluid manufacturer’s application instructions
and SDSs.
• Use of incorrectly maintained or mis-adjusted
equipment may result in improperly cured
material. Equipment must be carefully maintained
and adjusted according to instructions in the
manual.
• To prevent inhalation of isocyanate mists, vapors,
and atomized particulates, everyone in the work
area must wear appropriate respiratory protection.
Always wear a properly fitting respirator, which
may include a supplied-air respirator. Ventilate the
work area according to instructions in the fluid
manufacturer’s SDSs.
• Avoid all skin contact with isocyanates. Everyone
in the work area must wear chemically
impermeable gloves, protective clothing and foot
coverings as recommended by the fluid
manufacturer and local regulatory authority.
Follow all fluid manufacturer recommendations,
including those regarding handling of
contaminated clothing. After spraying, wash hands
and face before eating or drinking.
Cross-contamination can result in cured material in
fluid lines which could cause serious injury or damage
equipment. To prevent cross-contamination:
• Never interchange component A and component
B wetted parts.
• Never use solvent on one side if it has been
contaminated from the other side.
