There seems to be lots of postings with extracts from Material Safety Data Sheets (MSDS) scattered throughout the Nexus forum. We all know the Standard Operating Procedure is to wear protective gear when handling these chemicals. Now and then accidents can (and do) happen. It would be nice to have a centralised library of familiar chemicals so we all know what dangers are involved when handling these substances as well as action to be taken if an accident occurs.

Here are a few suggestions, please feel free to add your own suggestions. I chose Science Lab MSDS's as their data sheets tend to follow Industry Standard formats:-

Sodium Hydroxide
Naphtha
Hexane
Hydrochloric Acid
Heptane
Sulphuric Acid
Sodium Carbonate
Benzene
Ammonium Chloride
Acetic Acid

Please feel free to add to this list as necessary, I will try to consolidate it by way of edits.
 
Well, it is not quite right to use any MSDS for a given chemical to refer to your chemical.

MSDSs must be requested from the company that produced the said chemical because the same chemical from different companies can have different contaminants, one can be foodgrade whereas the other not, etc etc. Each chem company produces MSDSs for each of the chemicals they supply.
