  The GHS is an acronym for The Globally Harmonized System of Classification and Labelling of Chemicals. The GHS is a system for standardizing and harmonizing the classification and labelling of chemicals. Chemicals are associated with codes that define their health, physical and environmental hazards.This universal hazard communication system was developed to ensure that employers, employees and consumers are provided with adequate, practical, reliable and comprehensible information on the hazards of chemicals, so that they can take effective preventive and protective measure for their own health and safety.
  The GHS classifications for chemicals associated with products in this database may be viewed by selecting the "Advanced" button on the Chemical Ingredients tables. Since this is a work in progress, GHS classifications may not be shown for all chemical ingredients.

  Chemical Abstracts Service Registry Number is a unique identifier for a chemical and its synonyms. CAS numbers identify the chemical, but not its concentration or specific mixture.  CAS Registry Numbers are assigned by the Chemical Abstracts Service, a division of the American Chemical Society. For more information: www.cas.org
  
  We have assigned ID numbers (with 6 leading zeros or nines, e.g., 000000-xx-x or 999999-xx-x) for blends and chemicals that do not have CAS numbers.

   UN Global Harmonization Classification

  Hazard Codes and their associated descriptions are an essential part of the Globally Harmonized System of Classification and Labelling of Chemicals (GHS). There are 4 categories of Hazard Codes:

  • Physical Hazard Codes (H200 series)
  • Health Hazard Codes (H300 series)
  • Environmental Hazard Codes (H400 series)
  • Supplementary Hazard Codes (EUH series)

  Hazard Codes may be found in the "Advanced" version of Chemical Composition / Ingredients tables.

  Pictogram

  SVHC is a substance (identified by the European Chemicals Agency) that may have serious and often irreversible effects on human health and the environment. SVHC are defined in Article 57 of Regulation (EC) No 1907/2006 (“the REACH Regulation”) and include substances which are:
  1.  Carcinogenic, Mutagenic or toxic to Reproduction (CMR), meeting the criteria for classification in category 1 or 2 in accordance with Directive 67/548/EEC or in category 1a or 1b in accordance with EC No 1272/2008This directive was recently replaced by the new EU regulation (EC) No 1272/2008.
  2.  Persistent, Bioaccumulative and Toxic (PBT) or very Persistent and very Bioaccumulative (vPvB) according to the criteria in Annex XIII of the REACH Regulation, or
  3.  Identified, on a case-by-case basis, from scientific evidence as causing probable serious effects to human health or the environment of an equivalent level of concern as those above (e.g. endocrine disrupters).

    • Warnings

      KEEP OUT OF REACH OF CHILDREN! DO NOT TAKE INTERNALLY. Avoid breathing vapors. Intentional misuse by deliberately concentrating and inhaling vapors may be harmful or fatal. Vapors may cause flash fire. Use only with adequate ventilation. Do not get in eyes, on skin or clothing. Wash thoroughly after handling. Construction and repair activities can adversely affect indoor air quality. Consult with occupants or a representative (i.e. maintenance, building manager, industrial hygienist, or safety officer) to determine ways to minimize impact.
      Keep away from heat and sources of ignition. Do not store at temperatures above 120 degrees F. Store containers away from excessive heat and freezing. Keep containers closed when not in use. Store away from caustics and oxidizers.

    • Acute health effects

      From MSDS:
      Hazards Identification
      Emergency Overview: A gray paste product with a solvent odor. DANGER! Vapors may ignite explosively. Keep away from heat, sparks and flame. Do not breathe dust, vapors or spray mist. Use only with adequate ventilation. Prevent build-up of vapors by opening all windows and doors to achieve cross-ventilation. Aspiration hazard if swallowed. Aspiration may cause pulmonary edema and pneumonitis..
      Primary Routes Of Entry: Skin Contact, Inhalation, Ingrestion, Eye Contact.
      Eye Contact: Causes eye irritation. May cause eye irritation.
      Skin Contact: Causes skin irritation. Prolonged and repeated skin contact may cause dermatitis, drying and defatting due to the solvent properties. Methanol may be harmful if absorbed through skin.
      Inhalation: Vapor harmful. May affect the brain or nervous system causing dizziness, headache or nausea. Vapors are harmful when inhaled. Inhalation of vapors in high concentration may cause irritation of respiratory system. Inhalation may cause irritation to the respiratory tract (nose, mouth, mucous membranes). Can cause nerve damage to arms and legs. Effects may be permanent.
      Ingestion: Harmful or fatal if swallowed. If ingested, may cause vomiting, diarrhea, and depressed respiration. May be harmful if swallowed.
      Medical Conditions which May be Aggravated by Exposure: None known.

    • Chronic health effects

      From MSDS:
      Reports have associated repeated and prolonged occupational overexposure to solvents with permanent brain and nervous system damage. Symptoms include: loss of memory, loss of intellectual ability and loss of coordination. Intentional misuse by deliberately concentrating and inhaling the contents may be harmful or fatal. Prolonged or repeated contact with acetone can cause defattening of the skin, which may lead to dermatitis. Overexposure or misuse of toluene can cause liver, kidney, and brain damage as well as cardiac abnormalities. There have been cases of aplastic anemia from toluene in industrial exposures (ACGIH, 1992). Increased coagulation time and reduced clotting factors have also been found, which are indicators of damage to the bone marrow (Clayton & Clayton, 1994).
      n-Hexane exposure can cause nerve damage to arms and legs causing numbness of the fingers and toes, effect may be permanent. Symptoms include: loss of memory, loss of intellectual ability and loss of coordination.
