Is the list of hazardous chemicals being continuously updated?
Thread Content
The “Catalogue of Hazardous Chemicals” was established and published in 2015 by the department under the State Council responsible for work safety supervision and management, in conjunction with the relevant authorities of the State Council in charge of industry and information technology, public security, environmental protection, health, quality supervision, inspection and quarantine, transportation, railways, civil aviation, and agriculture, based on the standards for identifying and classifying the hazardous properties of chemicals. Furthermore, the \"Guidelines for the Implementation of the Catalogue of Hazardous Chemicals (2015 Edition) (Trial)\\" (An Jian Zong Tang Guan San [2015] No. 80) was issued. But I saw online that there are versions from 2017, 2018, and even 2019 of the \"Catalogue of Hazardous Chemicals\" – is it being continuously updated? But no official update notes were seen either. Does anyone know the answer: handshake
It’s still the 2015 version; just because it’s not listed in the catalog doesn’t mean it’s not a hazardous chemical. Any substance that meets the definition criteria is considered a hazardous chemical. Hazardous chemicals not listed in the catalog do not require an approval license for production and operation from the safety supervision authorities, but manufacturing and importing companies must register with the NRCC. Please refer to the determination principles: The types of hazardous chemicals are identified based on the **standards for chemical classification and labeling**, from the following categories of hazardous and harmful properties: 1. Physical hazards: Instability, 1.1, 1.2, 1.3, 1.4. Flammable gases: Category 1, Category 2, Chemically unstable gases Category A, Chemically unstable gases Category B. Aerosol (also known as aerosol spray): Category 1. Oxidizing gases: Category 1. Pressurized gases: compressed gases, liquefied gases, cryogenic liquefied gases, dissolved gases. Flammable liquids: Category 1, Category 2, Category 3. Flammable solids: Category 1, Category 2. Self-reactive substances and mixtures: Type A, Type B, Type C, Type D, Type E. Spontaneously combustible liquids: Category 1. Spontaneously combustible solids: Category 1. Self-heating substances and mixtures: Category 1, Category 2. Substances and mixtures that release flammable gases upon contact with water: Category 1, Category 2, Category 3. Oxidizing liquids: Category 1, Category 2, Category 3. Oxidizing solids: Category 1, Category 2, Category 3. Organic peroxides: Type A, Type B, Type C, Type D, Type E, Type F. Metal corrosion products: Category 1. 2. Health hazards: Acute toxicity: Category 1, Category 2, Category 3. Skin corrosion/irritation: Category 1A, Category 1B, Category 1C, Category 2. Severe eye damage/eye irritation: Category 1, Category 2A, Category 2B. Respiratory or skin sensitization: Respiratory sensitizer 1A, Respiratory sensitizer 1B, Skin sensitizer 1A, Skin sensitizer 1B. Germline mutagenicity: Category 1A, Category 1B, Category 2. Carcinogenicity: Category 1A, Category 1B, Category 2. Reproductive toxicity: Category 1A, Category 1B, Category 2, Additional category. Specific target organ toxicity – single exposure: Category 1, Category 2, Category 3. Specific target organ toxicity – repeated exposure: Category 1, Category 2. Inhalation hazard: Category 1. 3. Environmental hazards: Hazard to aquatic environments – Acute hazard: Category 1, Category 2 ； Harm to the aquatic environment – Long-term hazards: Category 1, Category 2, Category 3. Harm to the ozone layer: Category 1.
How to determine the hazard categories of chemicals?
I noticed that these versions 17 and 18 available online are indeed fake; only the cover has been changed, while the content remains exactly the same. So, some of the information on the Internet might be just a reworked version with an added gimmick
It is currently the 2015 version, with no ongoing updates
Continuous updates pose significant difficulties for work safety supervision and management as well as corporate safety management, so updates are not carried out every year
Is there a full text version of 2015? Thank you
