Hazard symbol E : Explosive Criteria : Chemical and preparations which may react exothermically with out atmospheric oxygen, and which under define test conditions detonate, quickly deflagrate or explode upon heating wen partially confined. Precaution : Avoid impact, knocks, friction, sparks, fire and heat.. O : Oxidizing Criteria : Organic peroxides which are combustible even if not in contact with combustible materials. Other substances and preparations with as a rule are not combustible themselves, but which in contact with combustible materials, mainly through oxygen evolution, considerably increase the fire hazard and the intensity of a fire. Precaution : Avoid all contact with combustible substances. Risk of ignition : the substance promotes fire once started and impedes fire fighting.
F: highly flammable Criteria : Liquids with a flash point below 21 o c that are not extremely flammable.

Precaution : Keep away from naked flames, sparks and sources of heat. F+ : Extremely flammable Criteria : Liquids with a flash point below 0 o c and boiling point 35 o c. Gases and gas mixtures which are flammable in air at normal pressure and average temperatures. Precaution : Keep away from naked flames, sparks and source of heat. T : Toxic Criteria : Inhalation, swallowing or absorption through the skin in small amounts can cause considerable damage to health, and may sometimes be lethal. In the event of serious evidence of severe, possibly irreversible damage to health by single, repeated or prolonged absorption, especially carcinogenic, mutagenic and reproduction-toxic effects. Precaution : All contact with the human body must be avoided If you fell unwell, seek medical advice immediately. Particular attention is drawn to the carcinogenic, teratogenic or mutagenic risks associated with certain substances. Observe special regulations when handing these substances.
T+ : Toxic Criteria : Inhalation, swallowing or absorption through the skin in very small amounts can cause considerable damage to health, and may sometimes be lethal.

Precaution : All contact with the human body must be avoided. Particular attention is drawn to substances which are suspected to have a carcinogenic, mutagenic or reproduction-toxic effects. Xi : Irritant Criteria : Without being corrosive, immediate, prolong or repeated contact with skin or mucous membranes may cause inflammations. Risk of sensitization by skin contact (If classified R43). Precaution : Avoid contact with eyes and skin, do not inhale Valeurs. N : Dangerous for the environment Criteria : Liberation into aquatic and non-aquatic environments would present or may present immediate or delayed damage for once or more components of the environment may lead to immediate or delay damage of the ecological system through alteration of the natural balance. Some substances or their degradation product s may simultaneously affect different environmental compartments. Precaution : Depending on the risk potential do not allow to enter sewerage systems, soil or environment. Observe special disposal regulation!
