Third-party testing and certification agencies: such as Dezewei Testing (CNAS registration number: L8083), which can issue authoritative reports.
III. Preparing Application Materials
Applying for an epoxy adhesive MSDS typically requires the following information:
Product name (Chinese and English), model and specifications
Complete ingredient formula (including component content, CAS number)
Physicochemical properties (appearance, boiling point, flash point, pH value, etc.)
Toxicological and ecotoxicological data
Manufacturer information (name, address, contact information)
Product classification and hazardous characteristics description
Note: Ingredient information must be accurate and complete, especially for sensitive components such as curing agents and diluents. Missing key data may affect the validity of the report.

Key Reminders:
Multiple versions of MSDS may be required for the same product depending on the customer/destination.
The report must be signed by a professional and include the preparation date and version number.
It is recommended to retain original documents and communication records for future updates.
Self-prepared MSDSs lacking supporting data may not be accepted by customs or customers.
