Manufacturers, foreign trade enterprises, freight forwarders when exporting products, from time to time will come into contact with MSDS, especially chemical products. MSDS is called "Safety Data Sheets" in Chinese and "Material Safety Data Sheets" in English.
Scientific knowledge of MSDS can be easily obtained by using Internet search tools. MSDS can also be translated into chemical safety technical specification or chemical safety data Specification. It is used by chemical manufacturers and importers to clarify the chemical's physical and chemical properties (such as PH value, flash point, flammability, reactivity, etc.) and the possible harm to the user's health (such as cancer, teratogenesis, etc.).
Not only dangerous goods, some general goods also need to provide MSDS report. The carrier or forwarder will look at the MSDS and decide whether to accept shipment or not.
