MSDSonline® is the world’s premier collection of safety data sheets (SDSs) (formerly known as material safety data sheets (MSDSs)). ToxPlanet’s version of MSDSonline provides integrated access to millions of SDSs from thousands of vendors worldwide. In this tutorial, we will look at how to Print, Email, and Save results from your search of the MSDSonline collection.

To search the MSDSonline collection, start by clicking the MSDSonline® Advanced button on the left side of the screen. This brings up several search boxes which allow you to search using one or more criteria. Use the Product Name/Synonym box to search by product names (avoiding common or non-specific terms like acid or oil). Use the Manufacturer Name box to search by manufacturer or supplier (avoiding common terms like Company, Inc., or Corp.). Use the Product CAS Number box to search by CAS number (entering it either with or without dashes (e.g., 71-43-2 or 71432)).

Enter the desired search criteria in the corresponding search box(es) (for example, phenol in the Product Name/Synonym search box), and click the Submit button to execute the search.

After conducting a search in the MSDSonline collection, results are displayed as a tabular list of chemical terms/product names based on the established search criteria (e.g., phenol and “Product Name/Synonym”). In this example, the list includes all Product Names containing “phenol” for which we have SDSs.

You can print search results by using the “Print Page” function (to print just the page you are viewing) or by clicking on the orange PDF icon (to expand and print all results).

The system converts the document to PDF format and displays it in a new window with native Adobe controls. These controls can be used to Print or Save the results list, or to attach a copy of the saved list to an Email.

By clicking on a Product Name, you can view its SDS.

The system opens the SDS in PDF format and displays it in a new window with native Adobe controls. Use these controls to Print or Save the document, or to attach a copy of the saved document to an Email.
