I want chemical hazard symbols with descriptions?

Answer 1

If you are looking for properties of some specific chemical then search for MSDS (Material Safety Dada Sheet) for that particular chemical in Google or Yahoo search engines.
Here, I am giving you a list of websites which can give you general information on symbols. There will be slight variation in the depth of descriptive material depending on site to site.
You can copy and paste following links in your browser's address line:
(1) www.geocities.com/david_charles_curran/safety
(2) http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hazard_symbol
(3) http://www.hse.gov.uk/chip/phrases.htm

Answer 3

There are a list of internationally agreed symbols here
http://www.hse.gov.uk/chip/phrases.htm

They are also accompanied by a hazard letter E= explosive

There are also hazard phrases on the same link eg R1 explosive when dry.
You should also be aware of material safety data sheets (MSDS) http://www.msdssearch.com/ which are a legal requiremnt for all materials.

Answer 4

interior the Chemical Label customary there are a number of different "households" of risk, each and every pointed out by its very own label...A chemical with 2 risk symbols poses 2 categories of risk...case in point, if a tanker is done of warm Hydrochloric acid, it may be sensible for you to be warned approximately the two unfavourable aspects, the acid AND the greater effective temperature of it, do no longer you think of? maximum in all probability in a lab environment you may see greater effective than one label for components which at the instant are not basically a burn risk, yet in addition a poison and according to hazard additionally noticeably-reactive with air...

Answer 5

hi
i think u should go through the side of IIT roorkee. coz here in chemical dept a course in chemical hazard and safety.

Answer 6

Symbols with descriptions are available at this link

Answer 7

http://www.otrain.com/OTI_MSDS(DOT)800.html

I'm not sure if you are wanting DOT labels, HMIS or NFPA. You might find some on this website.

Answer 8

use google or yahoo.
