    The Training Material on “Dangerous Goods Handling (All modes)” has been produced under Project Sustainable Human Resource Development in Logistic Services for ASEAN Member States with the support from Japan-ASEAN Integration Fund (JAIF). Copyright Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN) 2014. All rights reserved. Dangerous Goods Handling Chapter 2: International Classification of Dangerous Goods Objectives This chapter will explain UN Transport regulations, its history and basis as model regulations for international classification system for other modes of transport. The linkage into the ASEAN Protocol 9 framework on the international carriage of dangerous goods in ASEAN will also be explained. 9 classes of dangerous goods classification shall be key content in this chapter. Other relevant basic terms such as Class, Division, Packaging Group (PG), UN Number (UNNO) and Proper Shipping Names (PSN) will also be covered. As supplement knowledge in classification of substances or mixtures that have more than one hazard, the explanation on precedence of hazard characteristics will be given. Basic hazard communication such as Labelling requirements, Dangerous Goods Declaration (DGD) or Multi-modal Dangerous Goods Form shall be explained. 1. Introduction 1.1 United Nations Recommendations on the Transport of Dangerous Goods (UNTDG/UNRTDG) These Recommendations have been developed by the United Nations Economic and Social Council's Committee of Experts on the Transport of Dangerous Goods in the light of technical progress, the advent of new substances and materials, the exigencies of modern transport systems and, above all, the requirement to ensure the safety of people, property and the environment. They are addressed to governments and international organizations concerned with the regulation of the transport of dangerous goods.

    Dangerous Goods Classifications Dangerous Goods Classifications Click on a class to read more details: 1. Explosives 2. Gases 3. Flammable Liquids 4. Flammable Solids 5. Oxidizing Substances 6. Toxic & Infectious Substances 7. Radioactive Material 8. Corrosives 9. Miscellaneous Dangerous Goods CLASS 1: EXPLOSIVES Explosives are materials or items which have the ability to rapidly conflagrate or detonate as a consequence of chemical reaction. Subclass Subclass 1.1: Explosives with a mass explosion hazard Consists of explosives that have a mass explosion hazard. A mass explosion is one which affects almost the entire load instantaneously. Subclass 1.2: Explosives with a severe projection hazard Consists of explosives that have a projection hazard but not a mass explosion hazard. Subclass 1.3: Explosives with a fire Consists of explosives that have a fire hazard and either a minor blast hazard or a minor projection hazard or both but not a mass explosion hazard. Subclass 1.4: Minor fire or projection hazard Consists of explosives that present a minor explosion hazard. The explosive effects are largely confined to the package and no projection of fragments of appreciable size or range is to be expected. An external fire must not cause virtually instantaneous explosion of almost the entire contents of the package. Subclass 1.5: An insensitive substance with a mass explosion hazard Consists of very insensitive explosives with a mass explosion hazard (explosion similar to 1.1). This division is comprised of substances which have a mass explosion hazard but are so insensitive that there is very little probability of initiation or of transition from burning to detonation under normal conditions of transport.

  • 2,4,6-Trinitrotoluene (Tnt)
    2,4,6-TRINITROTOLUENE (TNT) What is 2,4,6-TRINITROTOLUENE? 2,4,6-trinitrotoluene, also called TNT, is a man-made compound. The odorless, yellow solid is used in explosives. In the United States, TNT is primarily made at military sites. Where can TNT be found and how is it used? TNT is an explosive used by the military in artillery shells, grenades and airborne bombs. TNT may be found in old artillery shells that wash up or are dredged up on beaches. Industries use TNT to make dye and photography chemicals. How can people be exposed to TNT? You could be exposed to TNT through: Breathing vapor or dust containing TNT. This might happen if your work involves TNT. Drinking water polluted with TNT. This could happen if you drink water polluted by a waste site containing TNT. Eating fruits and vegetables grown in soil containing TNT. Touching soil that contacted TNT. You can also touch it if you work with TNT. Eye Contact by touching the eyes with hands contaminated with TNT, or getting TNT-contaminated dust in them. How does TNT work? When you breathe in air or drink water with TNT in it, the chemical enters your body quickly and completely. If TNT touches the skin, the body absorbs it more slowly. Regardless of the type of exposure, TNT is absorbed by the bloodstream and travels to the organs. When it reaches the liver, it breaks down and changes into several different substances. Not all of these substances have been identified, so it is not known if they are harmful.

Hitler feared he would lose in a direct confrontation with the Royal Navy, so the German surface fleet largely sat idle at anchor. Meanwhile, the U-boats and their all- volunteer crews were out at sea, hunting down enemy vessels. They sank the merchant vessels delivering the Allies’ much-needed materials of war, and even were able to achieve some success against much larger enemy warships.

ACTION: Notice of List of Explosive Materials. SUMMARY: Pursuant to Federal law, the Department of Justice must publish and revise at least annually in the Federal Register a list of explosives determined to be explosive materials. The list covers not only explosives, but also blasting agents and detonators, all of which are defined as “explosive materials.” This notice contains the 2017 Annual List of Explosive Materials, which remains unchanged from the 2016 Annual List of Explosives. DATES: The list becomes effective [INSERT DATE OF PUBLICATION IN THE FEDERAL REGISTER]: FOR FURTHER INFORMATION, CONTACT: William E.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Each material listed, as well as all mixtures containing any of these materials, constitute “explosive materials” under 18 U.S.C. 841(c). Materials constituting blasting agents are marked by an asterisk. While the list is comprehensive, it is not all-inclusive. The fact that an explosive material is not on the list does not mean that it is not within the coverage of the law if it otherwise meets the statutory definition in 18 U.S.C.
