  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.

  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).

      Emergency Overview
      
      May cause eye, skin or respiratory irritation. May be absorbed through the skin in harmful amounts. Accidental or deliberate ingestion of this material may cause central nervous system effects including headache, dizziness, narcosis, blurred vision, nausea, vomiting and diarrhea. May cause adverse chronic effects.
      
      Potential Health Effects
      
      Inhalation: High concentrations of vapors or mists may cause respiratory irritation experienced as nasal discomfort and discharge.
      
      Skin contact: Contact may cause minor irritation with redness and itching. Prolonged or repeated exposure may cause drying and peeling of the skin. May cause skin sensitization in some individuals. A single prolonged exposure is not likely to result in material being absorbed in harmful amounts. Prolonged or repeated skin exposure to very large amounts may cause central nervous system effects.
      
      Eye contact: May cause eye irritation with pain, tearing and inflammation.
      
      Ingestion: Accidental ingestion of a small amount may cause gastrointestinal discomfort with nausea, vomiting and diarrhea. Large amounts may cause central nervous system effects including headache, dizziness, narcosis, slurred speech and blurred vision.
      
      Medical conditions aggravated by exposure: May aggravate pre-existing skin, blood, kidney or liver disorders.

    • First Aid

      
      Inhalation: Remove to fresh air if effects occur and seek medical attention.
      
      Skin contact: Remove contaminated clothing. Wash all affected and exposed areas with soap and water. If irritation or redness develops or persists, seek medical attention.
      
      Eye contact: Exposed eyes should be immediately flushed with copious amounts of water using a steady stream for a minimum of 15 minutes. If irritation, pain, swelling or tearing develop, seek medical attention.
      
      Ingestion: If swallowed, get immediate medical advice by calling a Poison Control Center or emergency room. If advice is not available, take victim and product container to the nearest emergency treatment center or hospital. Do not attempt to give anything by mouth to an unconscious person.
      
      Notes to Physician: This product contains a small amount of diethylene glycol. It is estimated that the lethal oral dose of diethylene glycol in adults is 1.0-1.2 ml/kg. Diethylene glycol may cause an elevated anion-gap metabolic acidosis and renal tubular injury. Liver injury may occur, but not as severe as kidney injury. The signs and symptoms in diethylene glycol poisoning are those of metabolic acidosis, CNS depression and kidney injury. Urinalysis may show albuminuria, hematuria and oxaluria. The current medical management of diethylene glycol poisoning includes elimination of diethylene glycol, correction of metabolic acidosis and prevention of kidney injury. It is essential to have immediate and follow-up urinalysis and clinical chemistry. There should be particular emphasis on acid-base balance, and liver and kidney function tests. For severe and/or deteriorating cases, hemodialyis may be required. Dialysis should be considered for patients who have severe metabolic acidosis, or compromise of renal function. There is no conclusive evidence that ethanol treatment will be beneficial. Consult your poison control center.
