An example SDS, including guidance for handling a hazardous substance and information on its composition and properties. A safety data sheet (SDS), [1] material safety data sheet (MSDS), or product safety data sheet (PSDS) is a document that lists information relating to occupational safety and health for the use of various substances and products.
Exterior use of polyurethane varnish may be problematic due to its susceptibility to deterioration through ultra-violet (UV) light exposure. All clear or translucent varnishes, and indeed all film-polymer coatings (i.e., paint, stain, epoxy, synthetic plastic, etc.) are susceptible to this damage in varying degrees.
Materials may react violently with water or form peroxides upon exposure to air (e.g., potassium, sodium). 1. Materials that are normally stable but can become unstable (self-react) at high temperatures and pressures. Materials may react non-violently with water or undergo hazardous polymerization in the absence of inhibitors (e.g., propene). 0.
In the 1940s, Sherwin-Williams introduced Kem-Tone, a water-based fast-drying interior paint. [4] In 1996, the American Chemical Society named the product a National Historic Chemical Landmark. [13] [14] In 2016, the first paint registered as microbicidal with the United States Environmental Protection Agency was brought to market by Sherwin ...
EUH210: Safety data sheet available on request. EUH211: Warning! Hazardous respirable droplets may be formed when sprayed. Do not breathe spray or mist. EUH212: Warning! Hazardous respirable dust may be formed when used. Do not breathe dust. EUH401: To avoid risks to human health and the environment, comply with the instructions for use.
Like polystyrene itself, it is transparent and brittle. The copolymer has a glass transition temperature greater than 100 °C owing to the acrylonitrile units in the chain, thus making the material resistant to boiling water. It is structurally related to ABS plastic, where polybutadiene is copolymerised with SAN to give a much tougher material ...
Acrylic resin is a common ingredient in latex paint (UK: "emulsion paint"). Latex paints with a greater proportion of acrylic resin offer better stain protection, greater water resistance, better adhesion, greater resistance to cracking and blistering, and resistance to alkali cleaners compared to those with vinyl.

"NFPA 704: Standard System for the Identification of the Hazards of Materials for Emergency Response" is a standard maintained by the U.S.-based National Fire Protection Association. First "tentatively adopted as a guide" in 1960, [ 1 ] and revised several times since then, it defines the " Safety Square " or " Fire Diamond " which is used to ...
