Hazard Class 7 – Radioactive materials

Hazard Class 7 – Radioactive materials

For DOT requirements, radioactive material means any material having a specific activity greater than 0.002 microcuries per gram (µCi/g). The specific activity of a radionuclide means the activity of the radionuclide per unit mass of that nuclide. The specific activity of a material in which the radionuclide is essentially uniformly distributed is the activity per unit mass of the material.
