ERG 2024 lists UN/NA 2870 (Aluminum borohydride) under Guide 135, titled “Substances - Spontaneously Combustible”.
Material name
2870 on a placard, orange panel or shipping paper
It can stand for either of two ERG 2024 entries: “Aluminum borohydride” and “Aluminum borohydride in devices”. Both use Guide 135, so the number alone is enough to find the guide. On a numbered orange panel, 2870 is the lower number (how to read an orange panel).
ERG 2024 markings for 2870
2870 is not highlighted in green (no Table 1 entry), and its guide number 135 has no P.
