The BAM name is based on the "name and description" from the regulations and the IUPAC rules, but may be supplemented with further information so that significant differences between two dangerous goods data sets are apparent.

The aggregate state is given under normal conditions, i.e. at room temperature of 20 °C and normal pressure of 101.3 kPa.

The formula describes the chemical composition of a substance.

The BAM number is used to uniquely identify a substance or object in the BAM dangerous goods data pool.

Remark (german): Der stabilisierte Stoff ist namentlich der UN-Nr. 1185 zugeordnet. Für den unstabilisierten Stoff siehe 2.6.2.5 der UN-Modellvorschriften: "Chemically unstable substances of Division 6.1 shall not be accepted for transport unless the necessary precautions have been taken to prevent the possibility of a dangerous decomposition or polymerization under normal conditions of transport. For the precautions necessary to prevent polymerization, see special provision 386 of Chapter 3.3. To this end particular care shall be taken to ensure that receptacles and tanks do not contain any substances liable to promote these reactions."
