Safety Data Sheet
Getting an SDS for Barium diboron tetraoxide
A Safety Data Sheet is written for a product, not for a substance: the supplier of the grade you actually buy issues it, so two suppliers of Barium diboron… issue two different sheets. That is why there is no single authoritative SDS for a substance to download — what there is, is the job of collecting the sheets for the products you hold and keeping them current as suppliers revise them.
04 · Precautionary statements
Barium diboron tetraoxide precautionary statements
CLP Annex VI assigns 8 precautionary statements to Barium diboron tetraoxide. They are grouped the way a label groups them: what to do before handling, what to do when something has already happened, how to store it and how to dispose of it.
Prevention
What to do before and during handling so the hazard never happens.
Response
What to do once exposure, spillage or fire has already happened.

05 · Names in the regulation
Barium diboron tetraoxide name in 23 EU languages
CLP Annex VI Part 3 is published in every language edition of the regulation, and the identification column is written out in each of them. Nothing below is translated by us: each line is the name as that edition prints it. Under Art. 18(2) the substance name from Annex VI is a lawful product identifier, so this is the wording to put on a label going to that market — and where the cell lists several designations, any one of them qualifies.

All 23 language editions of Annex VI carry this entry. Irish is the twenty-fourth official EU language and has no line here for a different reason: no consolidated CLP text has ever been published in Irish, so there is no Irish edition of Annex VI to quote a name from.

09 · Questions
Barium diboron tetraoxide — frequently asked questions
What is the CAS number of Barium diboron tetraoxide?
The CAS number of Barium diboron tetraoxide is 13701-59-2. Its EC number is 237-222-4.
What does a Barium diboron tetraoxide label have to show?
Under CLP Annex VI the label for Barium diboron tetraoxide carries the pictograms Health hazard and Skull and crossbones and the signal word is Danger.
Is Barium diboron tetraoxide flammable?
CLP Annex VI assigns Barium diboron tetraoxide no flammability hazard class. That is not a statement that it cannot burn: the harmonised list only records the hazards that were assessed for it.
Is Barium diboron tetraoxide a carcinogen?
CLP Annex VI records no harmonised carcinogenicity classification for Barium diboron tetraoxide. Annex VI is a list of agreed classifications, not a list of substances found safe, so this is an absence of a classification rather than a clean bill of health.
