I walked into a warehouse that I later learned was a factory for polyurethane foam for solar panel shingles that go on roofs. Nothing was on or being produced or anything, the foam was just sitting there and the place smelled like shit. How dangerous it to be in a warehouse where closed cell polyurethane foam is produced? I was in the warehouse for a few minutes?

is that level of cleavage age appropriate?

Maybe, who knows.

fug. It was a pretty strong smell, really musty in the whole place, even the offices.
>>
>>8989058
For a few minutes it is fine. Just don't work there and don't use such products where you are in an enclosed space that is not properly ventilated (meaning you can't smell it).
>>
>>8989178
These days it is encouraged

Without actually sampling it's hard to know what the exposure level is, but chances are you're fine. Smell alone isn't always a good indicator of overexposure, plenty of things have an odor threshold lower than their 'danger' threshold.

From my research, problems from breathing shit like that in is from chronic exposure over years. I really doubt that this could do anything but who knows.

Tdi and mdi are overexposure if you can smell them. If nothing was being sprayed, I can't imagine any scenario where walking around that for a few minutes will do something too you.

not dangerous and you'll be fine.

this shit has been studied pretty well on lab animals and humans. if you work in it 8 hours per day for a while, you can get occupational asthma , cancer, and other random problems even to the CNS, and that's obviously not good. years of exposure can lead to problems like that. walking around in a warehouse with this shit in it for a few minutes isn't doing anything to you. if it didn't even make you cough or get a headache, then it definitely was not enough to do anything to you.

not just talking to OP, but people that worry about stuff like this have to realize that they are probably ingesting and inhaling loads of random shit from the environment that they would not be okay with if they knew, loads of random volatile organic compounds and such that you ARE breathing in and really can't do anything about. if you live anywhere near any factory or highway etc... you are definitely breathing in toxic shit constantly, not to mention what's in the water you drink, what's on your hands when you use them to eat food etc.

This thread reminds me of the CT scan threads. like, we know this shit doesn't give you cancer as long as you don't get dozens of them otherwise cancer rates would be through the fucking roof from the millions of people getting them every year just in the USA alone, yet we had threads on it almost daily for a year debating the shit as if there was some legitimate possibility everyone else was wrong.
