OXIDIZING MATERIALS

A. The definition of oxidizing

Oxidizing (oxidizing) is a material that included in the criteria B3 oxidizing materials and the burning time of material is same or shorter than the time standard combustion compounds (ammonium persulfate for solid materials and materials for liquid nitric acid). Oxidizing materials can produce oxygen in the decomposition or reaction with other compounds. Oxidizing materials can cause a burning. Besides that, the dangerous materials definition of an oxidizing agent is a substance that is not necessarily combustible, but may, generally by yielding oxygen, cause or contribute to the combustion of other material B. The types of oxidizing Oxidizing materials can cause a ery high exothermic reaction when in direct contact with other materials , especially with combustible materials . !here are two groups of oxidising agents, such as inorganic and organic . a. "norganic oxidizing materials . !his material only pose a fire hazard # fire . $owe er, because of its ability to combine with oxygen and also can not stand the heat , then the danger of such materials higher at high temperatures. !remendous reaction can occur if the material

is mixed # contaminated with flammable materials such as wood , paper , metal and sulfur powder . %nder ordinary conditions this mixture should be stored in cabinets # shel es are not combustible ( metal , walls ) . &tore in original container to ma'e it is not to be contaminated . (eep it in a minimum number . b. Organic oxidizing agent . !hese materials often cause de astating explosions , especially peroxide . )xamples are *hlorat , +erchlorat , Bromate , +eroxide , ,itric -cid , +otassium ,itrate , +otassium +etinanganat , Bromine , *hlorine , .luorine and iodine are easily react with oxygen ( under certain conditions ) that are grouped into an oxidizing agent . .

The effe'ts of oxidizing "gents fo# o(# he"&thy +hotochemical oxidants into the body and at sublethal le els can interfere with normal breathing process, in addition to the photochemical oxidants can also cause eye irritation. &ome of the symptoms that can be obser ed in humans treated with ozone contact, up to le els of 1.0 ppm not find any effect, at 1.3 ppm le els ranging irritations of the nose and throat. *ontact with 2e els of 3.1 to 3.1 ppm ozone for 0 hours in people who are sensiti e can result in se ere dizziness and loss coordination. "n most people, contact with 4.1 ppm ozone le els o er time could lead to pulmonari.+ada edema le els in normal ambient air, pero'siasetilnitrat (+-,) and +ero'siabenzoilnitrat (+bz,) may cause eye irritation but is not harmful to health. +ero'sibenzoilnitrat (+bz,) faster cause eye irritation.
