Classification et d'étiquetage des produits chimiques

La classification divise les substances chimiques et les mélanges en différentes catégories, en fonction de leurs propriétés physiques et leurs risques sanitaires et environnementaux.

Accidents chimiques

Le Programme de l’OCDE sur les accidents chimiques porte sur un sujet qui concerne toutes les personnes utilisant ou manipulant des produits chimiques dangereux, travaillant dans une usine chimique ou vivant à proximité de celle-ci. Il aide les pouvoirs publics, l’industrie, les travailleurs et autres parties intéressées, à prévenir les accidents chimiques et à faire face de manière appropriée à ceux qui se produisent.

Case Study: Assessment of an Extended Chemical Category, the Short-chain Methacrylates, Targeted on Bioaccumulation

This case study intends to illustrate this concept for the short chain methacrylates,originally composed of four chemicals, for the bioaccumulation endpoint. The OECD QSAR Toolbox identified about 160 chemicals potentially falling within the applicability domain of the original category, and the hypothesis tested in this case study is the possibility to predict the bioaccumulation potential for untested members of the category. The

Strategies in the Chemicals Industry and Related Areas; Vienna, Austria, 13-14 November 2003 [PART 2] Summary and Conclusions (2004)

The focus of the Workshop was to show the various attempts to implement service-oriented strategies such as "Chemical Leasing" models in practice. Moreover the possible economic and environmental benefits as well as the possible obstacles and drawbacks should be elucidated. The conclusions were to give an assessment of the prospects of future development for such business models.

Workshop on Exchanging Information Across a Chemical Product Chain; Stockholm, Sweden, 15-16 June 2004 (2004)

This document reports the outcome of a Workshop that was held to improve information exchange across a chemical product chain. The Workshop is an outcome of the project “Identifying Problems Associated with Exchanging Information across a Chemical Product Chain” that was endorsed at the 35th Joint Meeting of the Chemicals Committee and the Working Party on Chemicals, Pesticides and Biotechnology. Annex I gives a short historical

Lead. Background and National Experience with Reducing Risk (1993)

Risk Reduction Monograph No. 1: LEAD - Background and National Experience with Reducing Risk is the first in a planned series of OECD documents on risk reduction activities for specific chemicals or groups of chemicals. These Monographs will normally include sections on: the commercial life cycle, including releases from the major point sources and categories of diffuse sources; the environmental life cycle, including qualitative and

PFCs: Outcome of the 2009 Survey - Survey on the Production, Use and Release of PFOS, PFAS, PFOA, PFCA, their related Substances and Products/Mixtures containing these Substances (2011)

The OECD monitors the manufacture and use of perfluoroalkyl sulfonates (PFAS) and related chemicals including perfluorooctane sulfonate (PFOS) and perfluorocarboxylic acids (PFCA) and related chemicals including perfluorooctanoic acid (PFOA) through surveys conducted every 2-3 years. The related substances also include precursors, which are chemicals that can break down to form PFCA or PFAS. These chemicals are being monitored as they

Preliminary Lists of PFOS, PFAS, PFOA, PFCA, their Related Compounds and Chemicals that may degrade to PFCA (2006)

The OECD conducted surveys in 2004 and 2006 on Perfluorooctane sulfonate(PFOS), Perfluoroalkyl sulfonate (PFAS), Perfluorooctanoic acid (PFOA), related substances and products/mixtures containing these substances. The 2006 survey also included Perfluorocarboxylic Acid (PFCA) and PFCA precursors. The information sought included chemical identities, volumes of manufacture and import, use patterns of these chemicals, availability of
