Hazardous Chemicals Desk Reference

The Seventh Edition of Hazardous Chemicals Desk Reference, like previous editions, contains Safety Profiles, synonyms, physical properties, standards, and recommendations of government agencies for approximately 5,000 chemicals deemed both important and potentially hazardous by the international scientific community. The author has updated this standard reference book to reflect the profiles of the most relevant and sought after hazardous chemicals.

The new edition covers many new topics including counter-terrorism response, response to explosives, chemical warfare agents, toxins, and biological warfare agents. It expands its coverage on the field of emergency response to hazardous materials releases, illicit drugs laboratories, hazardous materials shipment accidents, and drug overdoses and chemical intoxications. Finally the Seventh edition includes updated selection of chemicals to be more relevant and useful to the reader—all of the DOT, EPA, ERG chemicals, and OSHA high hazard chemicals are included.
