About this Website

The purpose of ChemicalSafetyFacts.org is to provide consumer-friendly information about some of the chemicals that are essential to the products that people use every day.

This website is intended to provide general information only about various chemistries, their uses and function; it does not and cannot provide safety information specific to any particular consumer product or chemical, it is not intended to be comprehensive or complete, and should not be relied upon to ensure safe and appropriate use of any particular product or chemical.

Because the safety of any consumer product requires an understanding of its specific chemical composition, as well as the intended uses of the product and potential exposure to various constituents, consumers should follow the specific instructions and product labeling provided by the product manufacturer, and seek safety information specific to that product from the product manufacturer.

If you are looking for information about a chemical that is not on this site, let us know. We will be updating the site and adding information about more chemicals on a regular basis.

Please let us know if you have any questions about the information contained on this website.
