FOR CHEMICALS & COATINGS

REACH, EINECS, MSDS — when AI invents a composition, it invents a risk.

Chemicals catalogues are regulated to the molecule. PartSentinel measures, per CAS number and per formulation, what models claim to know — and flags the cases where a hallucinated boiling point, a wrong hazard code or a partial composition leak could become a regulatory or safety incident.

EXAMPLES OF AI INFERENCE · CHEMICALS & COATINGS

When AI invents a composition, it invents a risk.

INVENTED HAZARD CODE

GPT-4 invents a hazard code combination for one of your formulations — risk: a downstream user follows it and creates a real safety incident.

RESTRICTED SUBSTITUTE

Perplexity recommends a substitute coating from a competitor based on REACH registration — without checking that the substitute is restricted in your customer's market.

OUTDATED MSDS

Claude pulls an outdated MSDS section from an archived product page — a section that was withdrawn after a 2024 EINECS update.

USE CASES

What chemicals data teams use PartSentinel for.

01
REACH SVHC RECALL

Verify model recall of REACH SVHC list inclusion.

When a procurement copilot answers 'is this substance on the SVHC list?', it must be right. We test models against the current ECHA SVHC list (refreshed monthly) and flag plausible-but-wrong answers. Per-substance, per-model, per-language.

02
EINECS NUMBER VERIFICATION

Catch invented or misattributed EINECS numbers.

Models routinely propose EINECS numbers that don't exist or that belong to a different substance. We diff every model-returned EINECS against the official ECHA registry and flag mismatches. Particularly critical for substances with similar CAS prefixes.

03
MSDS HALLUCINATION DETECTION

Detect invented physical / hazard properties.

Boiling point, flash point, melting point, hazard codes (GHS, CLP), pictograms — all are routinely hallucinated. We test against your published MSDS with configurable tolerance bands for numeric values and exact match for hazard codes. Findings are categorised by severity and routed to regulatory affairs.

04
FORMULATION CONFIDENTIALITY WATCH

Detect partial composition leaks inside model knowledge.

Even partial formulation fragments — a precursor, a stabiliser, a trace additive — can compromise a moat. PartSentinel probes for compositional fragments your competitors shouldn't know. Findings are logged confidentially and never enter our public benchmarks.

QUICK QUESTIONS

What chemicals teams ask before booking.

Do you cover the current ECHA SVHC list?

Yes. We refresh against the ECHA registry monthly and store the version manifest with each audit. Models are tested against the SVHC list version that was published when the audit ran — so findings remain reproducible.

Can you handle confidential formulations?

Yes — and that's a primary use case. Confidential compositions are treated as private ground-truth: they are used to detect partial leaks but never published, never shared, and never enter our public benchmarks. EU-resident, named-engineer access, full audit log.

How do you handle MSDS PDFs from non-standard layouts?

Our OCR + structured extraction pipeline is calibrated on BASF, Dow, Solvay and Arkema templates. Custom layouts are processed with a 24-hour onboarding overhead. We tag every extracted property with its layout confidence.

Are CLP / GHS pictograms in scope?

Yes. We test pictogram recall (presence / absence per substance) and signal-word coherence. Multi-language descriptors are tested in the languages where you sell.

HEAD OF REGULATORY DATA · TIER-1 EUROPEAN COATINGS GROUP
We discovered two models confidently quoting flash points that don't appear on any of our MSDS. One of those models powers a customer-facing safety chatbot used in 14 countries. We had no instrumentation to even see this until PartSentinel.
