Properties and observations · source text
Desensitized explosive with lactose, glucose or cellulose. White solid. Soluble in water. When involved in a fire, the nitroglycerin may accumulate and may produce an explosion. Contact with water may dissolve the desensitizer (lactose or glucose), causing migration and accumulation of the nitroglycerin, which may explode. Nitroglycerin is more dense than water. When involved in a fire, evolves toxic fumes; in closed compartments these fumes may form an explosive mixture with air. Inhalation of vapours may cause headaches, dizziness and fainting.

Flammable solid 4.1

⚠ The marine pollutant (MP) status must be determined from the actual consignment: this is a generic N.O.S. entry, and no "P" in column 4 of the Index does not exclude applicability (2.10.2.4). Per 2.10.2.5, if the consignment meets the marine pollutant criteria of 2.9.3 it must be carried as a marine pollutant with the MP mark.
