The “explosive material” warning is used for laboratories handling chemicals with explosive properties. These materials may explode due to environmental conditions, exposure to high-heat or flame, or when mixed with other substances.
While few labs handle explosive chemicals, many utilize aerosols and compressed gasses which may pose a similar threat. This symbol is typically used to mark specialty housing/storage for compressed gas and explosive materials, which is usually kept away from the central workspace of the lab.
