BASF makes MDI. Phosgene and Aniline are some man killers. If that is what got him/them, that’s a painful end for anyone. Prayers to all involved.

Phosgene
Yikes. Not the way i wanna go

Why is phosgene so dangerous?
Phosgene inhalation may cause initially symptoms of respiratory tract irritation, patients feel fine thereafter, and then die of choking a day later because of build up of fluid in the lungs (delayed onset non-cardiogenic pulmonary edema). Phosgene exposure is associated with significant morbidity and mortality.

The MDI plant is where the incident occurred. Two guys got "gassed" whatever that means

Explain it to me like I am 5 but what are these things used in?

Olin on the Westlake side of Calcasieu River used to make Phosgene and there were several times that drivers on I-10 were gassed.

As is CO which is also used in the process of MDI and TDI.
