MSDS is an acronym for material safety data sheet. A MSDS is a very useful document that contains all sorts of information about a chemical. This chemical can be a raw material or ingredient or it could be a finished product.
The information one would find on a MSDS can vary slightly from country to country but generally a MSDS will provide information on the chemical and specify safety requirements when using that chemical.
A MSDS will have information on how to handle the chemical and what someone working with the chemical needs to be aware of. How toxic or poisonous the chemical might be and what safety gear would be required would be found on the MSDS. You can also expect to find information on any health effects and what first aid procedures should be followed if someone came into contact with the chemical.
Details of the chemicals boiling point, melting point and flash point would be on the MSDS. As well as how to store the chemical, what to do if it spills and how it would react if the place it is stored is on fire.
It is very important for anyone who is handling chemicals to know how to treat each one as they all have different requirements depending on their specific make-up.
