Scope
The document is organized under the headings of the 16-section international format MSDS, which is now used by more and more
suppliers and employers and is acceptable under WHMIS and OSHA.

CAS numbers, LD50, synergism, and many other expressions commonly
employed in chemical data sheets. It answers questions such as:
- What constitutes short- or
long-term exposure to a chemical?

controls" mean?

possible polymerization of a chemical?

to a product?
