Material Safety Data Sheets


Material Safety Data Sheets (MSDSs) provide workers and emergency personnel with ways for handling and working with a hazardous substance and other health and safety information. They will include information such as toxicity, health effects, first aid, reactivity, storage, disposal, spill/leak procedures, protective equipment, and physical data (such as flash point, boiling point, etc.). MSDSs are required under OSHA's Hazard Communication and Process Safety Management Standards, EPA's Right-to-Know regulations, DOT's transportation regulations and other federal and state regulations. They can be obtained from the manufacturer or distributor of supplied chemicals or through the Internet. Any MSDS should be as closely matched with the hazardous substance (such as by name, lot number, serial number, etc.) as possible.

The MSDS Search is dedicated to providing the most comprehensive single source of information related to Material Safety Data Sheets.

The MSDS links represented here are not sponsored by or maintained by the U.S. Department of Energy. No declaration can be made as to the accuracy of the MSDSs within any link.
