Accurate hazard identification is critical to any safety program. Chemical reactivity worksheets have been developed to simplify chemical reactivity hazard identification. We will discuss the limitations of the worksheets, spreadsheets, and matrices available through the Internet. Special care must be taken when determining hazards for three or more component interactions. Examples are given when hazards that do not exist are identified in these tools and examples when siginificant hazards are not identified are also presented.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
