Hah! You get two signal words with GHS: caution or danger. Caution is low stakes, where you might get skin irritation or maybe a mild burn. Danger is supposed to clue you in that it will fuck you up, but there’s no indicator of magnitude of fuck you up. Will it just give you a bad burn or will it melt your skin off while intercalating with your DNA?
I always wanted a third “oh helllll no” category for the really awful substances. For things like tert-Butyl hydroperoxide (it’s a straight 4-4-4) or Osmium tetroxide.
Same dude. Like signal word “Fuck” for the spiciest of chemicals that really probably shouldn’t exist in the first place that are desperately trying not to exist
Chlorine trifluoride! Nasty, NASTY shit. Guess which industry I worked in as safety!
Angry water.
Yeah it basically is, also while it’s not flammable itself, it makes almost everything it touches ignite. Even the very unburnable things
I think “Danger” might be putting it lightly…
