Notas: Sumario: The historical development of the polyuretane industry is briefly summarized from its beginings in 1937 to the present day. The health hazards of the isocyanate monomers and prepolymers in current U.K. industrial use are discussed, with exemples drawn from HM Factory Inspectorate and Employment Medical Advisory Service experience. Recent published papers regarding acute and chronic effects of isocyanate inhalation and their possible significance in terms of current and/or proposed industrial hygiene standards are reviewed.
