OXYDIZING AGENT SYMBOL

It is the symbol for oxidizing agents. Oxidizing agents are

substances that can produce oxygent. They make a fire triangle causing
fire.
The examples of oxidizing agents are:
- MnO4
- Cr2O4
- CCl4
For storage:
- dont place near the flammable organic substance, Source of
heat and fire.
- Put in the oxidizing agent in a cool room with ventilation such
as acid room.
- Distant flammable liquid or reductor.
We can meet the symbol in laboratory of basic analitical chemistry
and laboratory of physic chemistry or you can meet in the bottle.

IRRITANT SYMBOL

It is the symbol for irritant. Irritant is A substance that can cause

irritation of the skin, eyes, or respiratory system. Effects may be acute
from a single high level exposure, or chronic from repeated low-level
exposures to such compounds as
- Chlorine
- Nitric Acid
(HNO3)
- Clorid Acid
(HCL)
- Sulfid Acid
(H2SO4)
- Acetic Acid
(CH3COOH)
For safety, avoid with skin and eyes contact, and dont suck in its
vapors.
For storage:
- Put in a cool room with ventilation such as acid room.
- Separate irritant substance from poison substance.
We can meet the symbol in laboratory of basic analitical chemistry
and laboratory of physic chemistry or you can meet in the bottle.

TOXIC SYMBOL

It Is The Symbol For Toxic And More Toxic.

Acute Exposure ( Toxic )

a single exposure to a toxic substance which may result in severe

biological harm or death; acute exposures are usually characterized as
lasting no longer than a day.
The Example of toxic symbol are:
- Phenol
- C6H6
- CO

Chronic Exposure ( More Toxic )

continuous exposure to a toxin over an extended period of time, often
measured in months or years can cause irreversible side effects.
The Example of more toxic symbol are:
- H2S
- CHCL2
- CCl4
For safety, If toxic material enter your body, go to doctor
immediately because will be poisoning.
For storage:
- dont place near the Source of heat and fire.
- Put in a cool room with ventilation such as acid room.

- Separated from materials that may react and providing

protection equipment like work clothes, masks and gloves.
We can meet the symbol in laboratory of basic analitical chemistry
and laboratory of physic chemistry or you can meet in the bottle.

CORROSIVE SYMBOL

It Is The Symbol For Corrosive substance. A corrosive substance is

one that will destroy or irreversibly damage another substance in which it
comes in contact with. The main hazards to people include damage to
eyes, skin and tissue under the skin, but inhalation or ingestion of a
corrosive substance can damage the respiratory and gastrointestinal tracts.
The Example of corrosive symbol are:
- H2SO4,
- HNO3 and
- HCl.
For safety, avoid with skin and eyes contact, and dont suck in its
vapors. For storage are :
- dont place near the Source of heat and fire.
- Put in a cool room with ventilation such as acid room.
- Separated from poison substance
We can meet the symbol in laboratory of basic analitical chemistry
and laboratory of physic chemistry or you can meet in the bottle.

EXPLOSIVE SYMBOL

It Is The Symbol For explosive substance. An explosive material is a

material that either is chemically or otherwise energetically unstable or
produces a sudden expansion of the material usually accompanied by the
production of heat and large changes in pressure (and typically also a
flash and/or loud noise) upon initiation; this is called the explosion. An
explosive charge is a measured quantity of explosive material.
For Example of explosive symbol are TNT and Asetylen,
For safety, avoid from organic substance can flame, heat, and fire.
For storage:
- dont place near the flammable organic substance, Source of
heat and fire.
- Put in a cool room with ventilation such as acid room.
- Distant flammable liquid or reductor and fire jump from
electric.
We can meet the symbol in laboratory of basic analitical chemistry
and laboratory of physic chemistry or you can meet in the bottle.
