Safety Data Sheet
Getting an SDS for Fluazifop-butyl
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 Fluazifop-butyl 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
Fluazifop-butyl precautionary statements
CLP Annex VI assigns 3 precautionary statements to Fluazifop-butyl. 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.
Disposal
What has to happen to the contents and the empty container.

05 · Names in the regulation
Fluazifop-butyl 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.

Fluazifop-butyl storage and handling
Fluazifop-butyl reactivity
FLUAZIFOP BUTYL is a trimethyl phenoxy pyridine ester. May react with acids to liberate heat. Strong oxidizing acids may cause a vigorous reaction that is sufficiently exothermic to ignite the reaction products. May generate heat with caustic solutions. Genreates flammable hydrogen with alkali metals and hydrides.
