Symbols Hazardous Chemicals


Today many major industries using hazardous chemicals in production implementation. If seen 50 years ago, perhaps only 1 million tons produced annually but now less elbih 400 million tons of chemicals are produced annually.
In between 5 to 7 million chemicals are known and marketed more than 80,000 estimated 500 to 10,000 chemicals are traded hazards diataranya 150 to 200 species likely to cause cancer in humans.
The use of these chemicals are used in companies such as;
Agriculture (Agrochemical)
industry
laboratory
medical
Based on the United Nations / North America UN / UNA, hazardous chemical substance is divided into 9 but here I will discuss only 7;

HAZARD SYMBOL
Hazard Symbols used for the labeling of hazardous substances according to Regulations on Hazardous Substances (Ordinance on Substances Hazardeous)
Regulations on Hazardous Substances (Ordinance on Substances Hazardeous) is a rule to protect / safeguard hazardous materials and is mainly composed of occupational safety. Directions Regulations on Hazardous Substances (Ordinance on Substances Hazardeous) for the classification, packaging and labeling of chemicals is valid for all areas, areas and applications, and of course, also for the environment, consumer protection and human health.
The term hazardous materials is a common name and legal chemicals (kemikalia) (Chemicals Law) § 19/2 is defined as
• Hazardous materials or formulations according to the law kemikalia (Chemicals Law) § 3a,
• Ingredients, formulations and products may establish or release hazardous materials or formulations for the production or use,
• Ingredients, formulations and products are easily explode
Here are some definitions that can be used to understand the legal issues:
• Material / substance is an element or chemical compound - how it happens in nature or produced by synthesis (eg asbestos, bromine, ethanol, lead, etc.)
• Formulation is an alloy, a mixture or solution of two or more materials (eg paint, formaldehyde solution, etc.)
• Products are materials / substances or formulations that are acquired or formed during the production process. These properties determine the function lebik product than its chemical composition
Hazardous materials are defined above have one or more properties marked with hazard symbols
Hazard symbols are pictograms with black marks on an orange background, hazard categories for materials and formulations marked with hazard symbols, which are divided into
• Risk of fire and explosion (physical-chemical properties)
• Health risks (toxicological properties) or
• The combination of the two.
The following explains symbols of danger and peril including notation letter code (note: letter code is not part of the hazard symbols)
Inflammable substances (flammable material)
Combustible materials consist of sub-groups of explosives, oxidising, extremely flammable materials (extremely flammable substances), and the material is extremely flammable (highly flammable substances). Flammable materials (flammable substances) also belongs to the category of flammable material (Inflammable substances) but the use of hazard symbols is not required for these materials.
Explosive (explosive nature)
1.Huruf code: E
Materials and formulations marked with the notation danger "explosive" can explode with a punch / impact, friction, heat, flame and other ignition sources even without atmospheric oxygen. The explosion will be triggered by a reaction of the materials. High energy released by the propagation of waves moving air very quickly. Risk of explosion may be determined by the method given in the Law for the Explosive Substances
In the laboratory, a strong oxidizing compound mixed with combustible materials or reducing substances can explode. For example, nitric acid can cause an explosion if it reacts with some solvents such as acetone, diethyl ether, ethanol, etc.. Production or working with explosive materials requires knowledge and practical experience as well as specific safety. When working with these materials quantity should be kept as small as / as little as possible both for handling and inventory / spare.

Materials hazardous to health
Grouping materials and formulations according toksikologinya properties consist of acute and long-term effects, not depending on whether the effect is caused by the repetition of a single, long-term or exposition. An important parameter to assess the acute toxicity of a substance is its price LD50 determined in experiments on test animals. Price reflects a lethal dose LD50 in mg per kg of body weight will cause the death of 50% of the test animals, including 14 days after one single administration. Due to the design of the test can distinguish between expenditures (LD50 oral uptake and digestion through the gastrointestinal system, seta dermal LD50 for uptake (expenses) through the skin).
Besides these two there is also a concentration lethal (lethal concentration) LC50 pulmonary (inhalation), which reflects the concentration of a pollutant in air (mg / L) that would cause the death of 50% of the test animals within the 14 days after 4 hours of exposition.
