The State Chemist may, if required for the analysis of antifreeze for the purposes of registration, require the applicant to furnish a statement of the formula of such antifreeze, unless the applicant can furnish other satisfactory evidence that such antifreeze is not adulterated or misbranded. Such statement need not include inhibitor or other minor ingredients which total less than five percent (5%) by weight of the antifreeze, and if over five percent (5%), the composition of the inhibitor and such other ingredients may be given in generic terms.

No such statement shall be subject to subpoena nor shall the same be exhibited or disclosed before any administrative or judicial tribunal by virtue of any order or subpoena of such tribunal unless with the consent of the applicant furnishing such statement to the State Chemist. The disclosure of any such information, except as provided in this section, shall constitute a misdemeanor.
