  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.

  EINECS is the European Inventory of Existing Commercial Substances and its EINECS numbers are displayed as 2xx-xxx-x.
  ELINCS is the European List of Notified Chemical Substances that was available after September 18, 1981 and its ELINCS numbers are displayed as 4xx-xxx-x.
  NLP is the No-Longer Polymers category and its NLP numbers are displayed as 5xx-xxx-x EC No.

   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).

    • First Aid

      From MSDS
      Emergency and First Aid Procedures
      Inhalation: Exposure to very high concentration can induce anesthetic effect. Excessive inhalation exposure may cause irritation of respiratory passages. Can act as an asphyxiant by limiting oxygen. Cardiac sensitization to circulating epinephrine-like compounds can result in fatal cardiac arrhythmias. Remove to fresh air. Give artificial respiration if not breathing. Give oxygen if breathing labored. If cardiac arrest, apply external cardiac massage. Do not administer adrenaline or similar drugs as cardiac arrhythmias may result. Call physician immediately.
      
      Eye Contact: Liquid splashes or vapor spray may cause freeze burns. Immediately flush with plenty of water. After initial flushing, remove any contact lenses and continue flushing for 15 minutes. Have eyes examined and treated by medical personnel.
      
      Skin Contact: Liquid form of this material may cause freeze burns (frostbite-like lesions). Thaw affected areas with water, remove contaminated clothing carefully. Wash affected areas of skin thoroughly with plenty of warm water. Obtain medical attention. Prolonged contact with skin may cause red skin irritation or dermatitis. Remove oil from skin by washing well with soap and water. Launder clothing before reuse.
      
      Ingestion: May be harmful if swallowed. Do not induce vomiting without a Physician's advice.
