ICSC And MSDS difference
" International Chemical Safety Cards " (ICSC) Introduction International Chemical Safety Cards 1, what is the " International Chemical Safety Card" ? " International Chemical Safety Cards " (ICSC) is the United Nations Environment Programme (UNEP), the International Labour Organization (ILO) and the World Health Organization (WHO) partner institutions IPCS (IPCS) and the European Commission (EU) co- edited a set of international authority and guidance of the chemical safety information cards. Card provides an overview of more than 2000 kinds of toxic chemicals commonly used physical and chemical properties , exposure may cause harm to human body and symptoms, how to prevent poisoning and explosions , emergency / fire , leaking disposal measures , storage, packaging and marking and environmental data and other data, for use in factories, agriculture, construction and other work in all kinds of workplaces and employers to use . Promote the use of the world has been the ILO International Chemical Safety Cards as a " global occupational safety, health and environmental programs ," the important contents. International Chemical Safety Cards dissemination of information effectively promoted the global chemical safety management, environmental protection and sustainable development. 2, " International Chemical Safety Card" What is included ? ICSC has a total chemical identification, hazard / exposure type , acute hazards / symptoms , prevention , emergency / fire , spill disposal , packaging and marking , emergency response , storage, important data , physical properties , environmental data , annotations, and Additional Information 14 items. chemical identification data provides a chemical substance UN number , CAS Registry number, registration number toxic effects of chemical substances (RTECS), EC number (EC) and the English chemical name, card database ( Chinese Version ) also dangerous Goods Code provides Chinese and other information for the user search query ICSC data . 3, " International Chemical Safety Cards" are described in some of what types of chemicals ?
card chemicals covered by the strong representation , the necessity of having a priority control . Included in the list of chemicals cards mostly with flammable, explosive and toxic to human health and the environment or potential hazards common hazardous chemicals, including chemicals included in the Rotterdam Convention (PIC Convention ) internationally banned or severely restricted use of hazardous chemicals and pesticides in 27 kinds ; International Convention on the control of persistent organic pollutants eight kinds ; European Union provided a major source of hazardous chemical substances 74 kinds . Has published more than 1,100 chemical safety cards , inorganic chemicals , 274 species, accounting for 23.4% ; Organic Chemicals 762 kinds , accounting for 65.0% ; 142 kinds of chemical pesticides , accounting for 12%. 4, Why say " International Chemical Safety Card" an international authority and guidance ?
security card , all data are from the United Nations designated 10 countries, including the United States, Canada, Germany, Britain, the Netherlands and Japan, the 16 well-known authority made by the experts . Institutions involved in the preparation of the card : (1) Montreal, Canada Occupational Safety and Health Committee ; (2) British Industrial Biological Research Association ; (3) French Atomic Energy Commission Against Corruption ; (4) Canada Alberta Occupational Health and Safety Institute ; (5) Ministry of Health and Welfare Canada ; (6) Finnish Institute of Occupational Health ; (7) Netherlands Operating Environment Institute ; (8) Belgian Institute of Hygiene and Epidemiology ; (9) U.S. Environmental Protection Agency ; (10) German Medicine and Toxicology ; (11) National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health ; (12) German Federal Health Bureau ; (13) Japan's National Institute of Health Sciences ; (14) Toxicology, University of Paris, France, Southern Research Laboratory ; (15) Spanish National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health ; (16) German Hygiene and Microbiology . card draft is completed , the industrial countries to seek the advice and Poison Control Center , and finally by internationally recognized experts for peer review peer review committee finalized. Chemical Manufacturers Association, the operation of the workers and union representatives are invited to participate as observers peer review meetings. Therefore, the authority and reliability is an international chemical safety cards from other state, local or professional organization information compiled chemicals greatest advantage . card clearly outlines the basic health and safety information, largely consistent with ILO 170 Chemicals Convention and Recommendation requirements. And the use of standardized terminology cards , text concise , easy to understand and easy to remember , practical, and is carried out chemical safety management , environmental management, occupational disease prevention guide tool.
5, what is the Material Safety Data Sheet (MSDS)? MSDS (Material Safety Data Sheet) MSDS, known as the international chemical safety cards are manufacturers and distributors of chemicals required by law must provide physical and chemical properties of chemicals ( such as PH value , flash point, flammability , reactivity, etc. ) , toxicity , environmental hazards , as well as users' health ( such as carcinogenic , teratogenic, etc. ) may cause harm to a comprehensive document . It includes the burning of hazardous chemicals , explosive properties , toxicity and environmental hazards, and safe use , dispose of spill emergency aid , the main physical and chemical parameters , laws and regulations and other aspects of the comprehensive document information . MSDS 's position in international trade United States, Europe and other developed countries on the environment , occupational health legal requirements are extremely stringent , international trade in chemicals , the supplier is required to provide. In the United States , Canada and European countries, the enterprise has hazardous chemicals management department or the Occupational Health and Environmental Sciences Department of Management , specializing in audit chemical suppliers provide MSDS, met the criteria to qualify suppliers and the purchasing department for the next step business contacts . difficulty of preparing high-quality MSDS MSDS preparation of a high level of difficulty is : First, in addition to the physical and chemical properties, toxicological data to quantify chemical test fee is too high, data acquisition cost too much, especially chemicals laced with plenty of composite materials or by-products, its environmental , biological , toxicological data in humans and other more complex , so the same kind of chemical MSDS is not necessarily the same, but the supplier 's MSDS encountered in the enterprise using the environmental, health and other legal disputes , the supply If the MSDS provided substandard providers , we must bear the corresponding legal responsibility. Second, the preparation of the MSDS must be in accordance with the buyer 's country or region of hazardous chemicals requirements of the relevant laws and regulations , however, countries , or even a nation states ( eg : USA ) on chemicals management laws and regulations are usually not the same and even these laws and regulations change every month , so the preparation of the MSDS must meet the buyer at the country or regional laws and regulations. Material Safety Data Sheet (MSDS) 1). Chemical products logo and corporate identity 2). Composition / Information on Ingredients 3). Hazard identification 4). Aid measures 5). Fire-fighting measures 6). Accident Release Measures 7). Handling and Storage 8). Exposure controls / personal protection measures 9). Physicochemical properties 10). Stability and reactivity 11). Toxicological Information 12). ECOLOGICAL INFORMATION 13). Disposals 14). TRANSPORT INFORMATION 15). Regulatory Information 16). Additional Information International Chemical Safety Cards (ICSC) 1). Identification of chemicals 2). Composition / MF 3). Fire and explosion hazard identification ; inhalation, skin , eye and ingestion exposure to hazards identification and preventive measures ( including personal protective equipment ) aid measures , fire fighting measures 4). Spill disposal 5). Storage 6). Packaging, labeling and transport 7). Important data : Occupational exposure limits , physical and chemical hazards , exposure pathways short-term exposure effects and long term exposure effects 8). Physical properties 9). Environmental Data 10). Annotations MSDS and the International Chemical Safety Cards are delivered chemical safety information, information files , their main data items are the same or similar, only in accordance with the relevant requirements and control data items , you can choose from the preparation of the MSDS applicable data . But the MSDS and there are also significant differences between ICSC . First, preparers and data requirements vary. MSDS chemical production enterprises by a chemical preparation of their own data archive management file. The ICSC is organized by the UN agencies prepared an internationally authoritative guidance chemical information file. Given the limited human and information resources , any enterprise in the preparation of the MSDS scientific data integrity, reliability are difficult to reach level of ICSC . And MSDS data required many levels , in many cases, for a workshop and general users who Chemicals , MSDS technically may seem overly complicated , too much content , while ICSC concise, easy to understand and easy to remember , and more suitable for plant operators and general users. Second , MSDS for a chemical product , It can be a chemical substance , it can be a chemical mixture or preparation , while the ICSC is the representation of a pure chemical substance information cards. International Chemical Safety Cards and MSDS can be seen as two complementary sources of information . If you can use the two together , you will get bigger and better results . 6, " International Chemical Safety Card" object and scope of application ? International Chemical Safety Cards authority with data , text, concise , easy to understand and easy to remember , practical features, is carried out chemical safety management , environmental management, occupational disease prevention , poison safety and essential tool registration guide . For any production , processing or use of toxic chemicals as raw material companies and unit managers , technicians and workers, as well as operational management departments involved in chemical safety inspection use , has great reference value. card data provided basically in line with ILO Convention on safe use of chemicals in the workplace and on the danger of MSDS , Material Safety Data labels such as preparation of national standards required to meet the dangerous chemicals production , storage, use , import and export trade , health and safety and environmental management and other aspects of management needs. This set of cards can be as toxic chemicals known to the card information on the production floor , and job positions and operating workers memorial service technicians access to use . Also available in the industrial hygiene, safety , occupational disease prevention , accident prevention and environmental managers to understand the occupational hazards of chemicals , poisoning symptoms and first aid measures ; fire protection, storage and use of emergency measures . Engaged in the import and export of chemicals and transport managers can learn about certain hazardous chemicals and the EU countries, the United Nations hazard classification and packaging marking requirements and so on. In addition, this card is also available for chemical production enterprises in accordance with relevant state regulations, the preparation of technical specifications when using dangerous chemicals . Since the card information as possible to use simple, easy to understand and easy to remember expression standardized terminology , ideal for enterprise employees to carry out " three safety education " as the training materials used . The card also enterprises to develop occupational health and safety management system certification , the establishment of occupational safety , health and environmental policy , planning , management systems , documentation , etc. are very helpful.
7, on the MSDS testing. so-called material safety , in fact, are most concerned about are the three people, one is transporter ( possible leaks ) , the other is operating workers ( possible exposure ) , the last one is the end product users ( use of safety ) , and of course environmental aspects should also be considered. so security is to understand the material ( pure substance ) or its constituents ( mixture ) is flammable, whether explosive, whether reactive , whether pathogenic , whether toxic , whether radioactive , whether corrosion is easy to pollute the environment, etc. and so on. Called the tests is to declare the situation. In fact , not all parameters are tested according to the specific material but , considering that the substance or composition can be carried out by the above-mentioned features related to physical testing to assure the safety of the three persons . As for the basic color, odor , pH, specific gravity is essentially the basic characteristics of the substance formulation .
