dinitro-orthocrésate d'ammonium : Ce nom, relevé dans la «Réglementation IATA pour le transport des articles dangereux», nous paraît très douteux : premièrement, il ne s'agit pas de crésate mais bien de crésolate; deuxièmement, le préfixe «ortho» doit être séparé du nom du produit par un trait d'union : on devrait lire «ortho-crésate»; troisièmement, on utilise plus la lettre «o-», en français, que le préfixe «ortho» au long. Mentionnons enfin que «ortho-», ou la lettre «o», s'écrivent en italique. 5, record 1, French, - dinitro%2Do%2Dcr%C3%A9solate%20d%27ammonium
