Motion picture film

Oxygen..

Characteristic properties, precau-
tions required, markings required

Film used in providing enter-
tainment for the passengers and
crew. Only slow burning (cel-
lulose acetate) film is permitted.
Cylinders shali conform to ICC
requirements and shall be fitted
with a valve protection cap.
Oxygen is a strong supporter of com-
bustion and greatly accelerates fire.
Oxygen under pressure may cause
grease, oil and other readily com-
bustible and finely divided sub-
stances to ignite.

Colorless, odorless and tasteless.

They shall be contained in individual metal boxes, except for the film in the machine and the film immediately before it is placed in or immediately after removal from the machine. Where not over five 5-pound reels are present in the booth they may be placed on incom. bustible shelves, suitably secured against displacement by the motions of the boat. Where more than five reels but not more than 10 reels are present, they shall be kept in closed shelves or cabinets similar in construction to that of the walls of the booth. Where more than ten 5-pound reels are present, they are to be stored in an insulated film cabinet. 2 Ready mixed paints, varnish, or enamel possessing a flashpoint at or below 80° F. shall not be permitted as articles of ships' stores on board vessels subject to these regulations.
