22AFMAN 24-204(I)/TM 38-250/NAVSUP PUB 505/MCO P4030.19H/ DLAI 4145.311 DECEMBER 2001-Type C: An organic peroxide that, as packaged for transport, neither detonates or deflagrates rapidly andcannot undergo a thermal explosion.-Type D: An organic peroxide which exhibits the following characteristics:-Detonates only partially, but does not deflagrate rapidly and is not affected by heat when confined.-Does not detonate, deflagrates slowly, and shows no violent effect if heated when confined.-Does not detonate or deflagrate, and shows a medium effect when heated under confinement.-Type E: An organic peroxide that neither detonates or deflagrates, and shows low or no effect when heatedunder confinement.-Type F: An organic peroxide that will not detonate in a cavitated state, does not deflagrate, shows low orno effect if heated when confined, and has low or no explosive power.-Type G: An organic peroxide that will not detonate in a cavitated state, will not deflagrate, shows no effectwhen heated under confinement, has no explosive power, is thermally stable (self-acceleratingdecomposition temperature above 60 degrees C (140 degrees F)); and, for desensitized liquid formulations,is desensitized with a compatible organic liquid which boils above 150 degrees C (300 degrees F).Class 6.1 (Poisonous Material)--A material, other than a gas, which is known to be so toxic to humans as to afford ahazard to health during transportation, or is presumed to be toxic to humans because it falls within one of the testcategories identified in 49 CFR 173.132.HClass 6.2 (Infectious Substances):-An infectious substance is a viable microorganism, or its toxin, which causes or may cause disease inhumans or animals, and includes those agents listed in 42 CFR 72.3 of the Department of Health andHuman Services regulations, or any other agent that has the potential to cause severe disabling or fataldisease. The terms "infectious substance" and "etiologic agent" are synonymous.-Substances known or suspected of containing pathogens.-A biological product is a material prepared and manufactured according to 9 CFR, part 102 (Licenses forBiological Products), 9 CFR, part 103 (Biological Products for Experimental Treatment of Animals), 9CFR, part 104 (Permits for Biological Products), 21 CFR, part 312 (Investigational New DrugApplication), or 21 CFR, parts 600 to 800 (Biologics), and may be shipped according to this manual.Class 7 (Radioactive Material)--Any material having a specific activity greater than 0.002 micro curies per gram(uCi/g) (see definition of "specific activity").Class 8 (Corrosive Material)--A liquid or solid that causes visible destruction or irreversible alterations in humanskin tissue on contact. If the packaging leaks, the liquid will have a severe corrosion rate on other materials such assteel and aluminum. The main hazard from Class 8 liquids and vapors is the corrosive effect on humans and theaircraft or cargo. Some Class 8 materials have very dangerous additional hazards such as toxicity, flammability, andexplosiveness.Class 9 Material--A material that may pose an unreasonable risk to health, safety, or property during transport, butdoes not meet any of the definitions of the other hazard classes specified in this manual. This class includes:-A material that has an anesthetic, noxious, or other similar property which can cause extreme annoyance ordiscomfort to passengers and crew in the event of leakage during transportation, so as to prevent the correctperformance of the crews assigned duties.-A material in quantities that meets the definition of a hazardous waste or a hazardous substance, but doesnot meet the definition of any other class.Combination Packaging--A combination of packaging, for transport purposes, consisting of one or more innerpackagings secured in a nonbulk outer packaging. It does not include a composite packaging.Combustible Liquid--A combustible liquid is any liquid that does not meet the definition of any other classificationspecified in this manual and has a flash point above 60.5 degrees C (141 degrees F) and below 93 degrees C (200degrees F). Any mixture having one or more components with a flash point of 93 degrees C (200 degrees F) orhigher, that makes up at least 99 percent of the total volume of the mixture is not a combustible liquid.
