Instructions are given on the safety precautions to be
used during storage and disposal by mechanical,
chemical and thermal means of the more important
chemicals (so-called "Leitchemikalien"). These are
listed in the tables in the order of their potential risk.
Their effect upon people and the environment are
also listed and any special precautions emphasized.
Notes:
The following information has been prepared to
be as exact and reliable as possible.
The manufacture of semiconductor compo-
nents is, however, subject to regular change
without special notification.
The publication of this brochure excludes any
responsibility resulting from its use.

Ozone Depleting Substances
The use of Ozone Depleting Substances has been
totally eliminated by Vishay Semiconductors and by
doing so meets the legal requirements as defined in
the following documents.
1. The "Montreal Protocol" together with the "Lon-
don Amendments" Appendix A, B, and the "List
of Transitional Substances"
2. "Clean Air Act", Amendments 1990, "Environ-
mental Protection Agency" (EPA), USA, Class
I and II - Ozone Depleting Substances
3. "European Council Resolution" number 88/
540/EEC and 91/690/eec Appendix A, B and C
(Transitional Substances)
Vishay Semiconductors guarantees that its compo-
nents do not contain, and are manufactured without,
the use of Ozone Depleting Substances
