NFPA 704
| HEALTH | 1 | Exposure would cause irritation with only minor residual injury (e.g. acetone, sodium bromate, potassium chloride) | |
| FIRE | 2 | Must be moderately heated or exposed to relatively high ambient temperature before ignition can occur and multiple finely divided suspended solids that do not require heating before ignition can occur. Flash point between 37.8 and 93.3 °C (100 and 200 °F). (e.g. diesel fuel, sulfur) | |
| REACT | 0 | Normally stable, even under fire exposure conditions, and is not reactive with water (e.g. helium,N2) | |
