A variety of health, flammability, reactivity and hazard ratings exist, including those established by the United Nations, known as the “Globally Harmonized System of Classification and Labelling of Chemicals (GHS)” [8]. Different countries, and different government agencies, may, historically, have chosen to adopt different approaches in establishing the ratings used. The ratings below are commonly used in North and South America in connection with the hazards associated with chemicals, including those chemicals frequently encountered in clandestine drug manufacture.
