The Physical and Theoretical Chemistry Laboratory - Oxford University
This site serves "as a source of general information about the potential hazards of chemicals," but it warns that the Material Safety Data Sheets (MSDS) should always be obtained from the manufacturer. Compiled by the Oxford University chemistry department, the resources given on this site complement MSDS sheets very well. For instance, a brief guide explains how to properly use and interpret them, and a many terms related to chemical safety are defined in a glossary. Over 5,000 chemicals are profiled from information based on MSDS sheets.
