Explosives |
|
Division 1.1: Substances and articles which have a mass explosion hazard
Division 1.2: Substances and articles which have a projection hazard but not a mass explosion hazard
Division 1.3: Substances and articles which have a fire hazard and either a minor blast hazard or a minor projection hazard or both, but not a mass explosion hazard |
| |
| |
Flammable Gases |
|
Gases which at 20 °C and a standard pressure of 101.3 kPa:
-are ignitable when in a mixture of 13 per cent or less by volume with air; or
-have a flammable range with air of at least 12 percentage points regardless of the lower flammable limit.
|
| |
| |
Non-flammable Non-toxic Gases |
|
Gases which:
-are asphyxiant - gases which dilute or replace the oxygen normally in the atmosphere; or
- are oxidizing - gases which may, generally by providing oxygen, cause or contribute to the combustion of other material more than air does; or
-do not come under the other divisions
|
| |
| |
Toxic Gases |
|
Gases which:
- are known to be so toxic or corrosive to humans as to pose a hazard to health; or
-are presumed to be toxic or corrosive to humans because they have an LC50 value equal to or less than 5000 ml/m3 (ppm).
|
| |
| |
Flammable Liquids |
|
Liquids which have a flash point of less than 60 °C and which are capable of sustaining combustion |
| |
| |
Flammable Solids
self-reactive substances and solid desensitized explosives |
|
Solids which, under conditions encountered in transport, are readily combustible or may cause or contribute to fire through friction; self-reactive substances which are liable to undergo a strongly exothermic reaction; solid desensitized explosives which may explode if not diluted sufficiently |
| |
| |
Substances Liable to Spontaneous Combustion |
|
Substances which are liable to spontaneous heating under normal conditions encountered in transport, or to heating up in contact with air, and being then liable to catch fire |
| |
| |
Substances which in contact with water emit flammable gases |
|
Substances which, by interaction with water, are liable to become spontaneously flammable or to give off flammable gases in dangerous quantities |
| |
| |
Oxidizing Substances |
|
Substances which, while in themselves not necessarily combustible, may, generally by yielding oxygen, cause, or contribute to, the combustion of other material |
| |
| |
Organic Peroxides |
|
Organic substances which contain the bivalent -O-O- structure and may be considered derivatives of hydrogen peroxide, where one or both of the hydrogen atoms have been replaced by organic radicals |
| |
| |
Corrosive Substances |
|
Substances which:
-cause full thickness destruction of intact skin tissue on exposure time of less than 4 hours; or
-exhibit a corrosion rate of more than 6.25 mm per year on either steel or aluminium surfaces at 55 °C
