Folder Chemical Lab Safety Rules

The fabrication of micro and nano devices requires the use of several types of chemicals, both inert and hazardous.  This learning module provides the general safety rules for working in facilities and laboratories that use chemicals.  Through its activities, the learning module gives students the opportunity to demonstrate their understanding of these rules and their ability to apply them in a chemical use environment.

Folder Safety Data Sheets

A Safety Data Sheet (SDS) contains valuable information and OSHA required information on a chemical - its physical and chemical properties, potential hazards, proper methods for storing and transporting, and much more.  This learning module provides information on the requirements and content of Safety Data Sheets, how to locate a specific SDS, and how to interpret it.  Activities allow students to demonstrate their ability to locate a specific SDS and to extract and interpret important safety information. (Note:  The SDS used to be called a Material Safety Data Sheet or MSDS.)

Folder Chemical Labels - NFPA

The fabrication of micro and nano devices requires the use of several types of chemicals, both inert and hazardous.  OSHA requires specific information about a chemical to be on its label. This learning module provides information needed to interpret chemical labels and symbols used.  One such symbol is the NFPA diamond developed by the National Fire Protection Association.  Upon completion of this learning module one should be able to describe the information found on a NFPA diamond and a chemical label.
