ERG 2024 markings for 1716
1716 is highlighted in green, so ERG 2024 Table 1 (Initial Isolation and Protective Action Distances) has an entry for it: “Acetyl bromide (when spilled in water)”. Hazora shows those distances in the app, not on this page. “When spilled in water” means the material produces large amounts of toxic inhalation hazard (TIH) gases when spilled in water. Table 2 (Water-Reactive Materials Which Produce Toxic Gases) lists the gas produced: HBr (hydrogen bromide). Its guide number 156 has no P.
