Now for some misguidance that might be on mistarget.

Ask the users what they call the things. One of the frequent answers
will likely be "MSDS sheets". I just checked with my wife, a quality
engineer and chemist. She confirmed the term and the plural. Yecch!

Yet another approach borrows from the old mongoose joke, "Send me an
MSDS. While you're at it, send me three more."
