Why CAS 124-68-5 hasn't dangerous pictogram while has phrases R 52 53?

Answer:
The substance concerned has no icon "environmentally hazardous" in ECB. Directive 1999/45/EEC also described that we can have phrases R without pictogram in the environmental level.

Since 13/06/2006 we've included in our data DB RR the info of Quebec (VME, VLE, Ceililng, Dermal) which you've requested. We'll complete in the coming weeks all the components at the same time with OSHA because there are several CAS and different values for certain compounds.

Keep requests in file

Question:
At the time of printing, in the print window it is possible to "print in file" with PRN. I tried but when I open the file in question, I had the lines (Embedded image moved to file: pic14605.pcx) and (Embedded image moved to file: pic03616.pcx) @. It would be very useful for me to keep the requests in file, arranged by date and applicant (labor inspection, host environment, CRAM ...). Could you give me a solution?

Answer:
The PRN. is language of your printer than no longer usable (option file appears by default in Windows).

To keep your requests in file, it's better to convert them to PDF. You can find free tools in http://www.primopdf.com/ or payed Adobe version http://www.adobe.fr/products/acrobatstd/main.html that will enable you to print the result of a request in PDF file that you can keep.

Approach to reduce the weight of an STP

Answer:
A SDS that you sent was scanned by you but didn't come directly from the supplier. Therefore the file can no longer be reduced because the reduction can be done only in the moment of scan.

However, if you receive SDS directly from the manufacturer in electronic format, you can eventually reduce their size by using a tool for creating PDF (Primopdf example). The manipulation is simple:
- Open the SDS with the corresponding application,
- Select "File / Print"
- Selected Primopdf in the list of printers
- Press the button "Print"
- Primopdf inventes you to choose where you want to store your new file
- Press OK and you get your PDF

Creation of new supplier

Question:
I have updated to 2.0. New version does not give the option of adding a new supplier after creating a new MSDS. The "+" is not available.

Réponse:

This is because you have already a "New" string in the supplier list. You can select and modify this item. Once all "New" list items are removed (through modification) the "+" sign will be reactivated. This is done for security reasons(not to create "New" items accidentally).
