Hazardous Chemical Desk Reference 3e

This reference provides immediate access to information on the hazardous properties of over 6000 chemicals, with safety profiles that give a complete overview of acute and chronic toxicity, fire, explosion and reactivity properties, as well as CAS, NIOSH and DOT identification numbers. The range of chemicals covered in this edition ranges from drugs to food additives, to dyes and detergents, to lubricants and pesticides.

Industrial intermediates and waste products, and extracts from plant and animal sources are included as well.

Two cross-indexes permit rapid location of a material if either a Chemical Abstract Service (CAS) number or a synonym for the material is the point of entry.

The book is a reference for chemists and toxicologists, as well as safety professionals and emergency responders.
