SDS obligations still need to be judged by regulations

The ICSC is an international chemical safety card that provides concise safety information for a single chemical; the SDS is a supply chain document that combines specific product, formulation, purity, use, supplier and target market regulations.

Why can't it be replaced directly?

The ICSC generally does not contain corporate vendor information and does not necessarily cover the mixture, the latest taxonomy conclusions, or all required content for the target market.ICSC can be used as one of the data sources, but it cannot be renamed as SDS delivery directly.
