4,4'-Methylenediphenyl diisocyanate (MDI) is the most important of the isocyanates used as intermediates in the chemical industry. Among the main types of damage after exposure to low levels of MDI are lung sensitization and asthma. Albumin adducts of MDI might

Novel hard-block-only polyurethanes are prepared from 1,4-butanediol (BDO) and a pre-polymer synthesized separately from 1,3-bis (4-hydroxybutyl) tetramethyl disiloxane (BHTD) and 4,4'-diphenylmethane diisocyanate (MDI). Three (co)polymers using different proportions of these chain extenders were synthesized using reaction injection moulding, and their

Orthopedic plaster casts contain methylene diphenyl diisocyanate (MDI). A few case reports have suggested occupational asthma to MDI in casting work. However, the knowledge of the exposure levels related to the occupational asthma cases is lacking. We report on two
The aim of the study was to analyze the data obtained during the diagnostic process and their real values in the final diagnosis of patients exposed to diisocyanates amd suspected of occupational allergic disease of the respiratory system The patients
Polyurethanes (PU) are polymers made with diisocyanates such as MDI (4,4'-methylene diphenyl diisocyanate) and TDI (2,4-toluene diisocyanate and 2,6-toluene diisocyanate). Investigations have been undertaken with MDI and TDI to assess dermal uptake and resulting systemic exposure. Absorption, distribution and excretion
