Exposure Scenario

	Exposure Scenario {{unreferenced, date=September 2011 The ''exposure scenario'' (sometimes referred as: ES) is a document of chemical safety which has to be prepared for substances that are manufactured/imported in quantities of more than 10 tonnes/year in/to the territory of the EU, and are considered to be hazardous or PBT/vPvB substances. The aim of the ES The exposure scenario is a system of conditions that describes that how a given substance (on its own or in mixtures/articles) is manufactured or used during its life cycle, and which control methods are prescribed/recommended by the manufacturer/importer/downstream user to avoid/reduce the human and environmental exposure. The content of the ES The exposure scenario must contain the appropriate risk assessment measures and operational conditions which ensure that all the risks arising from the use of the substance can be controlled appropriately. Exposure scenarios may appear in an annex of the SDS, in which case the document is referred to ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu]
	Substance Of Very High Concern A substance of very high concern (SVHC) is a chemical substance (or part of a group of chemical substances) concerning which it has been proposed that use within the European Union be subject to authorisation under the REACH Regulation. Indeed, listing of a substance as an SVHC by the European Chemicals Agency (ECHA) is the first step in the procedure for authorisation or restriction of use of a chemical. The first list of SVHCs was published on 28 October 2008 and the list has been updated many times to include new candidates. The most recent update occurred in January 2022 to include a total of 223 SVHC. Criteria The criteria are given in article 57 of the REACH Regulation. A substance ''may'' be proposed as an SVHC if it meets one or more of the following criteria: it is carcinogenic; it is mutagenic; it is toxic for reproduction; it is persistent, bioaccumulative and toxicAnnex XIII, REACH Regulation, at pp. 383–85. (PBT substances); it is very persistent and very bio ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR:* [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu]
	Safety Data Sheet A safety data sheet (SDS), material safety data sheet (MSDS), or product safety data sheet (PSDS) is a document that lists information relating to occupational safety and health for the use of various substances and products. SDSs are a widely used system for cataloguing information on chemicals, chemical compounds, and chemical mixtures. SDS information may include instructions for the safe use and potential hazards associated with a particular material or product, along with spill-handling procedures. The older MSDS formats could vary from source to source within a country depending on national requirements; however, the newer SDS format is internationally standardized. An SDS for a substance is not primarily intended for use by the general consumer, focusing instead on the hazards of working with the material in an occupational setting. There is also a duty to properly label substances on the basis of physico-chemical, health, or environmental risk. Labels can include hazard ...

	E-SDS {{unreferenced, date=September 2011 e-SDS, otherwise known as an extended SDS. An extended SDS is a document of chemical safety. It is much longer and detailed than the standard SDS. It consists of a standard SDS which has more subsections than the general one, and an additional annex containing one or more exposure scenario(s). The necessity of e-SDS The 1907/2006/EC REACH prescribes that those substances, which: * is produced in more than 10 tonnes/year, and * considered as hazardous substance, exposure scenarios have to be prepared. These exposure scenarios have to be appended to the SDS, therefore a so-called extended SDS (e-SDS) is created. The descriptor system The descriptor system is created by ECHA for the use in exposure scenario {{unreferenced, date=September 2011 The ''exposure scenario'' (sometimes referred as: ES) is a document of chemical safety which has to be prepared for substances that are manufactured/imported in quantities of more than 10 tonnes/year in/ ...
