ADR hazard number 50

Hazard identification number 50 on the orange plate: oxidizing (fire-intensifying) substance.

Printed in the upper half of the orange-coloured plate above the UN number, 50 identifies an oxidizing (fire-intensifying) substance. The trailing zero shows that the first figure alone describes the hazard.
