ADR hazard number X88
Hazard identification number X88 on the orange plate: highly corrosive substance that reacts dangerously with water.
Printed in the upper half of the orange-coloured plate above the UN number, X88 identifies a highly corrosive substance that reacts dangerously with water. A repeated figure means that hazard is intensified. The leading X warns that the substance reacts dangerously with water, so water may be applied only with expert approval.

| 8 | repeated 8: doubling a figure means that hazard (corrosive) is intensified |
