EXPLANATIONS |AGRADE

What could happen when hazardous materials that react dangerously

when in contact with each other are transported together? - ANSWERPossible Hazards

Because of the nature of hazardous materials, if they come in contact

with each other, they are capable of producing other hazards

i.e. when bleach and ammonia come in contact with each other, they

produce a toxic vapor (which is an inhalation hazard).

Hazard Class Division - ANSWER- Some hazard classes are separated

into divisions. These divisions identify the different types of hazard

within a hazard class. For example, HC 1 (explosives) can have hazards

such as fragmentation or fire in the addition to exploding

Learn more HC Division - ANSWER- HC 1

1.1 Mass explosion hazard (bombs, 155 projectile)

1.2 Fragmentation hazard (some grenades and 105mm cartridges)

1.3 Fire hazard (propellant, artillery charges)

1.4 Minor explosion hazard (small arms ammunition, smoke grenades)

1.5 Very intensive explosives (blasting agents)

1.6 Extremely intensive explosives (no mass explosive hazard)

HC2

2.1 Flammable gases (acetylene, butane, hydrogen)

2.2 Non-flammable, non-poisonous compressed gases (helium, nitrogen,

and neon)

2.3 Gases poisonous by inhalation (chlorine, ammonia anhydrous,

carbon monoxide)

HC 3

Materials that ignite easily. This is due to flash point. A flash point is the

temperature at which a material gives off enough vapor to ignite. (fuel

aviation turbine engine (JP-8), gasoline, and some alcohol beverages)

HC 4

4.1 Flammable solids that catch fire easily (safety or strike anywhere

matches)

4.2 Spontaneously combustible materials that can catch fire without a

separate heat source (charcoal briquettes, linseed oil)

4.3 Dangerous when wet materials (materials that can explode or emit

flammable gas when in contact with water)

i.e. potassium, sodium, MRE heaters

HC 5

5.1 Oxidizer: materials that does not burn on its own, but gives off

oxygen, which could cause other materials to burn

i.e. ammonium nitrate fertilizer, hydrogen peroxide

5.2 Organic peroxide (liquid or solid) that contain oxygen

i.e. polyester resin kits used to patch vehicle tires or repair boats

HC 6

6.1 Poisonous materials (liquid or solid) so toxic to humans that it is a

hazard to health

i.e. potassium cyanide, arsenic

6.2 Infectious substances: an organism that causes virus or infection in

humans or animals

i.e. medical waste, virus cultures

HC 7

A radioactive material is any material containing unstable isotopes

I.e. uranium, plutonium, thorium

Note: any time you receive or ship radioactive materials, you must work

with your Radiation Safety Officer

HC 8

Materials (liquid or solid) that causes destruction to the human body

upon contact (also includes liquids that corrode metals, like steel or

aluminum)

i.e. sulfuric acid, hydrochloric acid, sodium hydroxide

HC 9

Material that presents a hazard during transportation and does not fail

under any of the other eight hazard classes

I.e. asbestos,, airbag inflators, dry ice when transported by air or vessel,

cotton, when transported by land or vessel

What type of information is found on a Material Safety Data Sheet

(MSDS)/Safety Data Sheet (SDS)? - ANSWER- First source of

information used to create shipping papers, mark and label packages,

and placard vehicles. It provides crucial information for Hazard Class 2

thru 9 materials.

Describes who made the material, the ingredients that make up the

material, and possible hazards of the material (birth certificate)

Why is correct Hazmat information important? - ANSWER- Correct

Hazmat information provides safe and handling procedures, which can

prevent accidents

MSDS/SDS and Hazmat Communication - ANSWER- Guides you to

the information in the 49 CFR. The 49 CFR gives the information to

correctly prepare Hazmat communication (i.e. shipping papers, package

markings and labels, and placards)

MSDS/SDS Uses - ANSWER- Describes Class 2 thru Class 9 hazard

materials. It is not used to describe Class 1 explosives

MSDS/SDS and Hazmat Employees - ANSWER- *As a Hazmat

employee you use a MSDS/SDS as a guide for proper and safe handling

of a hazardous material

*Emergency personnel

*Every installation must have an MSDS/SDS for every hazardous

material, other than Class 1, that is shipped or stored on the installation.

MSDS/SDS Section - ANSWER- MSDS/SDS Safety Information

Contractor Summary (identifies who to contact if you have questions

about the material or the MSDS)
