Always read the full SDS before handling, storing, or disposing of this product. This article is for informational purposes only and does not replace the official Safety Data Sheet provided by Nalco Water/Ecolab. Always refer to the most current SDS obtained directly from the manufacturer for legal compliance and emergency response.
As of recent regulatory updates (GHS Revision 6 and beyond), the format has undergone significant changes in hazard communication, pictograms, and emergency response protocols. Users must transition from older Material Safety Data Sheets (MSDS) to the new Safety Data Sheets (SDS) that align with OSHA’s Hazard Communication Standard (HCS 2012) and international frameworks like REACH. Section 1: Identification – Product and Supplier Product Name: Nalco TRAC 115 Chemical Family: Aqueous solution of organic phosphonates and polymers Recommended Use: Scale inhibitor and dispersant for membrane systems (RO, NF) Supplier: Nalco Water (An Ecolab Company) Emergency Telephone Number: (Available on the new SDS – typically 1-800-424-9300 for CHEMTREC in the US) Why the “New” MSDS Matters: The previous MSDS versions often listed this product as non-hazardous. The new SDS may reclassify it due to updated data on chronic aquatic toxicity or specific target organ toxicity (STOT) after repeated exposure. Section 2: Hazard Identification – What Has Changed? Under the new GHS classification , Nalco TRAC 115 is typically classified as follows:
