Section 2
SECTION 2: Hazards identification
Radiological Hazard: Warning THIS MATERIAL SHOULD ONLY BE USED BY PERSONS QUALIFIED TO HANDLE RADIOACTIVE MATERIAL! This product contains licensed radioactive material and is therefore subject to the requirements of 10 CFR Part 20 (e.g., public and occupational exposure limits, waste disposal). At a minimum, the basic radiation safety principles of time, distance, and shielding, and appropriate radiation contamination control should be practiced to avoid/minimize any external and/or internal exposure. Consult with your Radiation Safety office for your facility’s radiation safety requirements/precautions specific to the radionuclide(s) (including its activity and chemical/physical form) in this Radioactive SRM. Warning SRM 4222d is a radioactive material, carbon‐14‐n‐hexadecane, with a massic activity of approximately 54 kBq•g‐1 solution. Carbon‐14 decays by beta‐particle emission. During the decay process no photons are emitted.
