no, it's not a chemical.
To expand on that, no, but not for that simple of a reason. Even if were used as a chemical (e.g. chemistry experiment), it is not a hazardous material, therefore, no MSDS would be required.
MSDSs that represent non-hazardous chemicals are not covered by the HazCom Standard. Paragraph 29 CFR 1910.1200(g)(8) of the standard requires that "the employer shall maintain in the workplace copies of the required MSDSs for each hazardous chemical, and shall ensure that they are readily accessible during each work shift to employees when they are in their workarea(s)." OSHA does not require nor encourage employers to maintain MSDSs for non-hazardous chemicals. Consequently, an employer is free to discard MSDSs for non-hazardous chemicals.

MSDS are available for most consumer goods, utilized by first responders in emergency situations and can assist chemists in laboratory work. These are just some of the implications of where and when MSDS are utilized. MSDS are authored by the manufacture, usually by someone with specific training and a background in industrial hygiene, chemistry, chemical engineering or a related field. Online-MSDS by KHA is a great place to find examples of MSDS. MSDS are regulated by different chemical agencies. In the US, OSHA is the primary regulator that mandates how and where MSDS must be made available to workers.
