DEFINITION OF TERMS
A large number of abbreviations and acronyms appear on a SDS. Some of these, which are commonly used, include the following:
CAS #: This is the Chemical Abstract Service Number that uniquely identifies each constituent.
EXPOSURE LIMITS IN AIR:
CEILING LEVEL: The concentration that shall not be exceeded during any part of the working
exposure.
DFG MAKs: Federal Republic of Germany Maximum Concentration Values in the workplace.
Exposure limits are given as TWA (Time-Weighted Average) or PEAK (short-term exposure) values.
DFG MAK Germ Cell Mutagen Categories: 1: Germ cell mutagens that have been shown to
increase the mutant frequency in the progeny of exposed humans. 2: Germ cell mutagens that
have been shown to increase the mutant frequency in the progeny of exposed mammals. 3A:
Substances that have been shown to induce genetic damage in germ cells of human of animals,
or which produce mutagenic effects in somatic cells of mammals in vivo and have been shown to
reach the germ cells in an active form. 3B: Substances that are suspected of being germ cell
mutagens because of their genotoxic effects in mammalian somatic cell in vivo; in exceptional
cases, substances for which there are no in vivo data, but that are clearly mutagenic in vitro and
structurally related to known in vivo mutagens. 4: Not applicable (Category 4 carcinogenic
substances are those with non-genotoxic mechanisms of action. By definition, germ cell
mutagens are genotoxic. Therefore, a Category 4 for germ cell mutagens cannot apply. At some
time in the future, it is conceivable that a Category 4 could be established for genotoxic
substances with primary targets other than DNA [e.g. purely aneugenic substances] if research
results make this seem sensible.) 5: Germ cell mutagens, the potency of which is considered to
be so low that, provided the MAK value is observed, their contribution to genetic risk for humans
is expected not to be significant.
DFG MAK Pregnancy Risk Group Classification: Group A: A risk of damage to the developing
embryo or fetus has been unequivocally demonstrated. Exposure of pregnant women can lead to
damage of the developing organism, even when MAK and BAT (Biological Tolerance Value for
Working Materials) values are observed. Group B: Currently available information indicates a risk
of damage to the developing embryo or fetus must be considered to be probable. Damage to the
developing organism cannot be excluded when pregnant women are exposed, even when MAK
and BAT values are observed. Group C: There is no reason to fear a risk of damage to the
developing embryo or fetus when MAK and BAT values are observed. Group D: Classification in
one of the groups A–C is not yet possible because, although the data available may indicate a
trend, they are not sufficient for final evaluation.
IDLH: Immediately Dangerous to Life and Health. This level represents a concentration from
which one can escape within 30-minutes without suffering escape-preventing or permanent injury.
LOQ: Limit of Quantitation.
NE: Not Established. When no exposure guidelines are established, an entry of NE is made for
reference.
NIC: Notice of Intended Change.
NIOSH CEILING: The exposure that shall not be exceeded during any part of the workday. If
instantaneous monitoring is not feasible, the ceiling shall be assumed as a 15-minute TWA
exposure (unless otherwise specified) that shall not be exceeded at any time during a workday.
NIOSH RELs: NIOSH’s Recommended Exposure Limits.
PEL: OSHA's Permissible Exposure Limits. This exposure value means exactly the same as a
TLV, except that it is enforceable by OSHA. The OSHA Permissible Exposure Limits are based
in the 1989 PELs and the June, 1993 Air Contaminants Rule (Federal Register: 58: 35338-35351
and 58: 40191). Both the current PELs and the vacated PELs are indicated. The phrase,
“Vacated 1989 PEL” is placed next to the PEL that was vacated by Court Order.
SKIN: Used when a there is a danger of cutaneous absorption.
STEL: Short Term Exposure Limit, usually a 15-minute time-weighted average (TWA) exposure
that should not be exceeded at any time during a workday, even if the 8-hr TWA is within the
TLV-TWA, PEL-TWA or REL-TWA.
TLV: Threshold Limit Value. An airborne concentration of a substance that represents conditions
under which it is generally believed that nearly all workers may be repeatedly exposed without
adverse effect. The duration must be considered, including the 8-hour.
TWA: Time Weighted Average exposure concentration for a conventional 8-hr (TLV, PEL) or up
to a 10-hr (REL) workday and a 40-hr workweek.
WEEL: Workplace Environmental Exposure Limits from the AIHA.

FLAMMABILITY HAZARD: 0 Minimal Hazard: Materials that will not burn in air when exposure to
a temperature of 815.5°C (1500°F) for a period of 5 minutes. 1 Slight Hazard: Materials that must
be pre-heated before ignition can occur. Material requires considerable pre-heating, under all
ambient temperature conditions before ignition and combustion can occur. This usually includes
the following: Materials that will burn in air when exposed to a temperature of 815.5°C (1500°F)
for a period of 5 minutes or less; Liquids, solids and semisolids having a flash point at or above
93.3°C (200°F) (i.e. OSHA Class IIIB); and Most ordinary combustible materials (e.g. wood,
paper, etc.). 2 Moderate Hazard: Materials that must be moderately heated or exposed to
relatively high ambient temperatures before ignition can occur. Materials in this degree would not,
under normal conditions, form hazardous atmospheres in air, but under high ambient
temperatures or moderate heating may release vapor in sufficient quantities to produce
hazardous atmospheres with air. This usually includes the following: Liquids having a flash-point
at or above 37.8°C (100°F); Solid materials in the form of course dusts that may burn rapidly but
that generally do not form explosive atmospheres; Solid materials in a fibrous or shredded form
that may burn rapidly and create flash fire hazards (e.g. cotton, sisal, hemp); and Solids and
semisolids (e.g. viscous and slow flowing as asphalt) that readily give off flammable vapors. 3
Serious Hazard: Liquids and solids that can be ignited under almost all ambient temperature
conditions. Materials in this degree produce hazardous atmospheres with air under almost all
ambient temperatures, or, unaffected by ambient temperature, are readily ignited under almost all
conditions. This usually includes the following: Liquids having a flash point below 22.8°C (73°F)
and having a boiling point at or above 38°C (100°F) and those liquids having a flash point at or
above 22.8°C (73°F) and below 37.8°C (100°F) (i.e. OSHA Class IB and IC); Materials that on
account of their physical form or environmental conditions can form explosive mixtures with air
and are readily dispersed in air (e.g., dusts of combustible solids, mists or droplets of flammable
liquids); and Materials that burn extremely rapidly, usually by reason of self-contained oxygen
(e.g. dry nitrocellulose and many organic peroxides).
