Below are listed all Material Safety Data Sheets (MSDS) for supplies and solvents provided within or recommended by the MICA Printmaking Department. All files are viewable in PDF format or downloadable by Right- or Control-Clicking the link.

MSDS are all cross-referenced, first by department and then by category.

MSDS binders are also available in within the department, broken down per classroom space.

Based on availability and preference, some chemicals or products are replaced with suitable alternatives. Every effort has been made to provide ‘duplicate’ MSDS for these alternates.
