Actually, even before GHS/HazCom 2012, I thought it was relatively common
for MSDS in the US market to fail to identify the majority of a mixture (by
weight) because of a claim that it was not hazardous.

Thanks for Monona and Bob for your replies on this question. It sounds like
GHS is making life more complicated in its early stages...

People interested in more discussion of Chemical Exposures in Everyday Life
