SdbHub is a high-performance and highly precise cloud solution based on pre-trained and optimized Safety Data Sheet (SDS) data models. This solution enables the automated extraction and provision of all data points from a safety data sheet. But what exact data can be automatically provided from an SDS?

The 16 Sections of a Safety Data Sheet Precisely Extracted with SdbHub

  1. Identification: This section identifies the chemical and its recommended uses. For example, SdbHub can automatically extract the chemical name, CAS number, and intended use.
  2. Hazard Identification: Describes the hazards associated with the chemical and includes warning information. SdbHub can automatically extract hazard symbols, signal words, and safety instructions.
  3. Composition/Information on Ingredients: Lists the ingredients, including impurities and stabilizing agents. SdbHub can automatically extract and structure this information.
  4. First-Aid Measures: Explains the actions to be taken in initial care at the workplace when someone is exposed to the chemical. SdbHub can automatically extract first-aid measures and emergency contacts.
  5. Fire-Fighting Measures: Provides recommendations for firefighting in case of a fire caused by the chemical. SdbHub can automatically extract firefighting measures and extinguishing agents.
  6. Accidental Release Measures: Used in case of chemical spills, leaks, or releases. Provides instructions for containment and cleanup. SdbHub can automatically extract spill response and containment instructions.
  7. Handling and Storage: Explains safe handling and storage practices. SdbHub can automatically extract recommendations for safe handling and storage of chemicals.
  8. Exposure Controls/Personal Protection: Specifies exposure limits, engineering controls, and personal protective measures to minimize worker exposure. SdbHub can automatically extract and categorize this information.
  9. Physical and Chemical Properties: Describes the physical and chemical properties of the product. SdbHub can automatically extract properties such as state, density, solubility, and pH.
  10. Stability and Reactivity: Indicates reactivity hazards and chemical stability. SdbHub can automatically extract information on reactivity hazards and stability.
  11. Toxicological Information: Relates to health and toxicological effects. SdbHub can automatically extract toxicological data such as LD50 values, acute and chronic toxicity.
  12. Ecological Information (non-mandatory): Provides information for evaluating the environmental impact of the chemicals if released into the environment. SdbHub can automatically extract environmental information and guidance.
  13. Disposal Considerations (non-mandatory): Offers guidelines for proper disposal, recycling, or recovery of the chemicals or their containers. SdbHub can automatically extract disposal instructions and recommendations.
  14. Transport Information (non-mandatory): Provides classification information for shipping and transporting hazardous chemicals. SdbHub can automatically extract transport classifications and guidance.
  15. Regulatory Information (non-mandatory): Describes safety, health, and environmental regulations specific to the product. SdbHub can automatically extract relevant regulatory information.
  16. Other Information: Includes dates when the SDS was prepared or revised.
