Dear Colleagues –
I believe the term ‘Hazardous Chemical’ has RCRA ramifications as well, whereas ‘Hazardous Material’ does not.
May not be applicable to your situation, but the terminology is often a regulatory concern ;)
Best regards,
Frank

Neal,
I have no idea why they do, but as a chemist when someone says “hazardous chemical”, I assume they mean a pure chemical. Hazardous material equally refers to pure chemicals and mixtures. Also,
so many equate chemical with hazardous chemical, I personally like the use of material.

Out of curiosity, why in a chemistry department do you use “hazardous materials”???? Why not “hazardous chemicals”?
