pH

indicates if the substance is acidic or basic or neutral

16

number of sections that the SDS is divided into

under pressure

physical hazard class that covers products that are compressed gases, dissolved gases, and refrigerated liquefied gases that may explode if heated or may be so severely cold that they cause burns

combustible dust

physical hazard class that covers products that are finely divided solid particles, that if dispersed in air may catch fire or explode if ignited

corrosive

physical hazard class that covers products that can chemically damage or destroy metals

pyrophoric

physical hazard class that covers products that catch fire quickly and spontaneously if exposed to air

flammable

physical hazard class that covers products that have the ability to ignite easily and their main hazards are fire or explosions

self reactive

physical hazard class that covers products that may cause a fire or explosion or their own, possibly when heated

oxidizing

physical hazard class that covers products that may cause or intensify a fire or cause a fire or explosion

simple asphyxiants

self heating

physical hazard class that covers products that will ignite only after being exposed to air for a long period of time or in large amounts

carcinogen

refers to a substance capable of causing canceer in living tissue

irritant

refers to a substance that aggravates tissue

mutagen

refers to a substance that can induce or increase the rate of frequency of permanent genetic mutations in an organism

pyrophoric

refers to a substance that ignites spontaneously when it comes in contact with air (and often also water)

teratogen

refers to a substance that interferes with the development of an embryo or fetus and may cause birth defects of end a pregnancy

acute exposure

refers to exposure occuring over a short period of 24 hours or less

chronic exposure

refers to the density of a substance compared to air

specific gravity

refers to the density of the substance compared to water

odour threshold

refers to the level in parts per million at which most people will be able to smell the substance

partition coefficient

refers to the ratio of the concentration of a solute in two immiscible or slightly miscible liquids; measure in solubility of the compound in each liquid

evaporation rate

refers to the speed at which a liquid or solid turns into a vapour; higher means more vapour hazard
