PRODUCT INFORMATION
SECTION 11: TOXICOLOGICAL INFORMATION
Product Summary
This information represents two isomeric compounds, 2,4-toluene diisocyanate and 2,6-toluene diisocyanate, as well as mixtures of these two isomers in various proportions. Unless otherwise stated, the health effects presented in this section apply to both isomers. Acute studies indicate that toluene diisocyanate (TDI) is highly toxic after inhalation exposure;whereas oral ingestions and skin contact 6 present a low acute toxicity hazard. TDI is irritating to the eye, skin, and respiratory tract. It is a skin sensitizer and can cause allergic skin reactions after contact with the skin. Inhalation or skin contact to TDI can cause respiratory sensitization resulting in an allergic asthma-like reaction following inhalation exposure. Symptoms of exposure may be delayed. Results from repeat exposure studies in animals indicate that the irritant properties of TDI cause injury to the respiratory tract after prolonged exposure. No adverse changes were observed in male or female reproductive organs and there was no effect on fertility in rats after inhalation exposure. There were no malformations in fetuses of female rats exposed to TDI throughout pregnancy. Inconsistent results have been obtained from mutagenicity tests in vitro,however no genetic toxicity was observed in rodents treated in vivo. There was no increase in tumors in rats and mice exposed for 2 years via inhalation; whereas long-term ingestion of TDI was carcinogenic to rats and mice.

Ingestion may result in irritation of the mouth and digestive tract. Gastroenteritis may result with any or all of the following symptoms: nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, headache. May cause damage to the stomach.
Skin Contact
Minimal hazard by skin contact; however contact with skin causes skin irritation and may cause skin and respiratory
sensitization.
Irritation
Skin
Moderate skin irritant.
Eye
Severe eye irritant. Severe irritation may result in corneal opacity, redness, inflammation of the iris and swelling of the conjuctiva.
Sensitization
Respiratory sensitizer. May cause respiratory sensitization following dermal or inhalation exposure. This material may cause sensitization by skin contact.
Target Organ Effects
Skin. Eye. Lung. Respiratory system. Gastrointestinal tract.
Repeated Dose Toxicity
TDI administered repeatedly to laboratory animals at doses of 300 mg/kg bwt (oral) caused injury to the stomach, small intestine, lungs, and trachea. Repeated exposure at 0.24 ppm (inhalation) caused injury to the respiratory tract (nasal passages, trachea, larynx, bronchi, and lungs; at 0.08 ppm, local nasal effects (rhinitis) were present. Serious risk to health after prolonged exposure.
Reproductive Effects
No adverse effect on reproductive performance was observed in male and female rats exposed to TDI by inhalation at concentrations up to 0.30 ppm over two generations.
Developmental Effects
TDI is not teratogenic in rats exposed by inhalation during pregnancy at concentrations up to 0.50 ppm. Maternal toxicity and minimal fetotoxicity occurred at 0.50 ppm. Post-natal toxicity evident by reduced body weight was observed in offspring of rats repeatedly exposed by inhalation to 0.08 ppm TDI before mating, during pregnancy, and during lactation.
Genetic Toxicity
Inconsistent evidence of mutagenic activity in test systems in vitro. No increase in micronuclei or unscheduled DNA synthesis in rodents after in vivo exposure.
Carcinogenicity
No increase in tumors in rats or mice after long-term exposure via inhalation at concentrations up to 0.15 ppm. Long-term ingestion of doses of 60 mg/kg bwt and greater caused increases in tumors in rats and mice. Rats exhibited an increased incidence in subcutaneous fibromas and fibrosarcomas, mammary gland fibroadenomas, pancreatic acinar-cell and islet-cell adenomas, and neoplastic liver nodules and mice showed increases in the incidence of hemangiomas and hemangiosarcomas and hepatocellular adenomas. Human studies of occupational exposure to isocyanates have not found a strong association or consistent pattern of cancer. Based upon animal ingestion studies, TDI has been classified by NTP
as reasonably anticipated to be a carcinogen, by IARC as a Group 2B - possibly carcinogenic to humans, and as a potential occupational carcinogen by NIOSH.

PRODUCT INFORMATION
SECTION 11: TOXICOLOGICAL INFORMATION
Product Summary
This information represents two isomeric compounds, 2,4-toluene diisocyanate and 2,6-toluene diisocyanate, as well as mixtures of these two isomers in various proportions. Unless otherwise stated, the health effects presented in this section apply to both isomers. Acute studies indicate that toluene diisocyanate (TDI) is highly toxic after inhalation exposure;whereas oral ingestions and skin contact 6 present a low acute toxicity hazard. TDI is irritating to the eye, skin, and respiratory tract. It is a skin sensitizer and can cause allergic skin reactions after contact with the skin. Inhalation or skin contact to TDI can cause respiratory sensitization resulting in an allergic asthma-like reaction following inhalation exposure. Symptoms of exposure may be delayed. Results from repeat exposure studies in animals indicate that the irritant properties of TDI cause injury to the respiratory tract after prolonged exposure. No adverse changes were observed in male or female reproductive organs and there was no effect on fertility in rats after inhalation exposure. There were no malformations in fetuses of female rats exposed to TDI throughout pregnancy. Inconsistent results have been obtained from mutagenicity tests in vitro,however no genetic toxicity was observed in rodents treated in vivo. There was no increase in tumors in rats and mice exposed for 2 years via inhalation; whereas long-term ingestion of TDI was carcinogenic to rats and mice.

Acute Toxicity - Effects
Ingestion
Ingestion may result in irritation of the mouth and digestive tract. Gastroenteritis may result with any or all of the following symptoms: nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, headache. May cause damage to the stomach.
Skin Contact
Minimal hazard by skin contact; however contact with skin causes skin irritation and may cause skin and respiratory
sensitization.
Irritation
Skin
Moderate skin irritant.
Eye
Severe eye irritant. Severe irritation may result in corneal opacity, redness, inflammation of the iris and swelling of the conjuctiva.
Sensitization
Respiratory sensitizer. May cause respiratory sensitization following dermal or inhalation exposure. This material may cause sensitization by skin contact.
Target Organ Effects
Skin. Eye. Lung. Respiratory system. Gastrointestinal tract.
Repeated Dose Toxicity
TDI administered repeatedly to laboratory animals at doses of 300 mg/kg bwt (oral) caused injury to the stomach, small intestine, lungs, and trachea. Repeated exposure at 0.24 ppm (inhalation) caused injury to the respiratory tract (nasal passages, trachea, larynx, bronchi, and lungs; at 0.08 ppm, local nasal effects (rhinitis) were present. Serious risk to health after prolonged exposure.
Reproductive Effects
No adverse effect on reproductive performance was observed in male and female rats exposed to TDI by inhalation at concentrations up to 0.30 ppm over two generations.
Developmental Effects
TDI is not teratogenic in rats exposed by inhalation during pregnancy at concentrations up to 0.50 ppm. Maternal toxicity and minimal fetotoxicity occurred at 0.50 ppm. Post-natal toxicity evident by reduced body weight was observed in offspring of rats repeatedly exposed by inhalation to 0.08 ppm TDI before mating, during pregnancy, and during lactation.
Genetic Toxicity
Inconsistent evidence of mutagenic activity in test systems in vitro. No increase in micronuclei or unscheduled DNA synthesis in rodents after in vivo exposure.
Carcinogenicity
No increase in tumors in rats or mice after long-term exposure via inhalation at concentrations up to 0.15 ppm. Long-term ingestion of doses of 60 mg/kg bwt and greater caused increases in tumors in rats and mice. Rats exhibited an increased incidence in subcutaneous fibromas and fibrosarcomas, mammary gland fibroadenomas, pancreatic acinar-cell and islet-cell adenomas, and neoplastic liver nodules and mice showed increases in the incidence of hemangiomas and hemangiosarcomas and hepatocellular adenomas. Human studies of occupational exposure to isocyanates have not found a strong association or consistent pattern of cancer. Based upon animal ingestion studies, TDI has been classified by NTP
as reasonably anticipated to be a carcinogen, by IARC as a Group 2B - possibly carcinogenic to humans, and as a potential occupational carcinogen by NIOSH.
