Class F: Dangerous A material which will react with water to produce a poisonous
Reactive Material gas.
Example: metal cyanides will release hydrogen
cyanide on contact with water.
Or a material which will undergo a reaction if the container is
heated, pressurized or agitated.
Examples: trinitroluene (TNT), picric acid.
INGREDIENT DISCLOSURE LIST
There is no official list of hazardous materials. There are tens – if not hundreds – of thousands of
different products and blends which are controlled products.
There is an “Ingredient Disclosure List” (IDL) of more than 1,700 chemical ingredients commonly found
in controlled products. Stated with each ingredient is a concentration cutoff. If a controlled product
contains that ingredient in a concentration above that cutoff figure, the ingredient must be named, and
its concentration shown on the Material Safety Data Sheet (MSDS). This is the only purpose of the
Ingredient Disclosure List.
The concentration cutoff is 0.1% or 1%, depending on the ingredient.
Example:
TotaSolve is widely used in the production of rubber duckies.
TotaSolve is 25% styrene, a substance appearing on the IDL.
The concentration cutoff for styrene is 0.1%.
Therefore, the MSDS for TotaSolve must list styrene
and show its concentration of 25%.
