Chemical Reaction Clause Samples
A Chemical Reaction clause defines the responsibilities and procedures related to the handling, reporting, and management of chemical reactions within a contractual context. Typically, this clause outlines the protocols for safely conducting chemical processes, including notification requirements if unexpected reactions occur or if hazardous byproducts are produced. Its core function is to ensure safety, regulatory compliance, and clear communication between parties when dealing with potentially dangerous chemical activities.
Chemical Reaction a “Chemical Reaction” is a process (including biochemical processes) that results in a molecule with a new structure through the breaking of intra-molecular bonds and the formation of new ones, or through the alteration of the spatial distribution of the atoms in a molecule. The following operations are not considered to be chemical reactions for the purposes of the present definition:
a) dissolution in water or in other solvents;
b) the elimination of solvents, including water;
c) the addition or elimination of water through crystallization .
Chemical Reaction. A good of this Chapter that results from a chemical reaction in the territory of one or both of the Parties shall be treated as an originating good. For purposes of this section, a “chemical reaction” is a process (including a biochemical process) that results in a molecule with a new structure by breaking intramolecular bonds and by forming new intramolecular bonds or by altering the spatial arrangement of atoms in a molecule. The following are not considered to be chemical reactions for the purposes of determining whether a good is originating:
(a) dissolution in water or in another solvent;
(b) the elimination of solvents, including solvent water; or
(c) the addition or elimination of water of crystallization. A good of this Chapter that is subject to purification shall be treated as an originating good provided that the purification occurs in the territory of one or both of the Parties and results in the elimination of not less than 80 percent of the impurities.
Chemical Reaction. 1. A good that results from a chemical reaction in the territory of a Party shall be treated as an originating good.
2. For purposes of this Section, a “chemical reaction” is a process (including a biochemical process) that results in a molecule with a new structure by breaking intramolecular bonds and by forming new intramolecular bonds, or by altering the spatial arrangement of atoms in a molecule.
3. The following are not considered to be chemical reactions for the purposes of determining whether a good is originating:
(a) dissolution in water or in another solvent;
(b) the elimination of solvents, including solvent water; or
(c) the addition or elimination of water of crystallization.
Chemical Reaction. A Safety Data Sheet must be posted in each supply room.
