Which section is not included in the SDS?

The Safety Data Sheet (SDS) is a comprehensive document that provides information about the hazards of a chemical substance and instructions for its safe handling and use. The sections typically included in an SDS encompass various aspects of the chemical, helping workers understand how to manage risks associated with it.

Chemical formulations, while important to know in certain contexts, are not included in the SDS. Instead, the SDS focuses on specific safety-related information, such as physical data, toxicological data, and any other pertinent safety information like handling and storage instructions. These sections are crucial because they inform users about the properties of the chemical, potential health effects, and emergency measures in case of exposure.

By not including chemical formulations, the SDS ensures that sensitive proprietary information is protected while still providing the necessary safety information needed for handling the chemical safely.
