Physical

Chemical

UN Class or Division /  Subsidiary Risks

ACETAMIDE
60-35-5

The substance decomposes on heating, producing toxic fumes • The solution in water is a strong base, it reacts violently with acid and is corrosive • Reacts with oxidants, reducing agents, bases, and acids

ACRYLAMIDE
79-06-1

The substance may polymerize violently due to heating or under the influence of light • The substance decomposes on heating producing toxic gases (nitrous oxides) • Reacts violently with oxidants

6.1

2-CHLOROACETAMIDE
79-07-2

The substance decomposes on heating producing toxic fumes including nitrogen oxides and chlorine • Reacts with strong oxidants, strong reducing agents, strong acids and strong bases

CYCLOPHOSPHAMIDE
50-18-0

The substance decomposes on heating, on contact with moisture, light, producing toxic fumes • Reacts with strong oxidants, strong acids, strong bases

DIMETHYL ACETAMIDE
127-19-5

The substance decomposes on heating producing toxic fumes (nitrogen oxides) • Attacks many plastics

DIMETHYL CARBAMOYL CHLORIDE
79-44-7

8

DIMETHYLFORMAMIDE
68-12-2
