Stability and Reactivity

Disclosure of potential reactivity hazards is required in an MSDS. This is often accomplished by describing the conditions that could result in a potentially hazardous chemical reaction.

The following information could be included:

• Chemical stability
• Conditions to avoid
• Incompatibility with other materials
• Hazardous decomposition products
• Hazardous polymerization.

Training is required before initial assignment of working with chemicals or within 30 days:

• Within the first 30 days of employment
• Whenever new hazards are introduced
