Hi all, can someone please tell me where I can find a comprehensive list of chemicals and their categories / user codes?
( that tells me to use a blue, green, orange or red dot!) I do have a copy of the " A.5 Chemical information and assessment advice " but not everything is in there!! Specifically at the moment, phloroglucinol, potassium chloride, potassium chromate and potassium ferricyanide! Many thanks in anticipation of your help!! :-? :unsure:

Do you use risk assess on line. as you can get all that info off the program. the person that developed the user codes on chem info and assessment advise, made the risk assessment program.

Well that's how I find out things like storage category and dot colour etc.
Hope it helps

Have a good weekend.
