Type 1 MIL-DTL-5541 Alodine coating is considered hazardous due to its composition and environmental impact. This type of coating involves chromate conversion coatings in a hex chrome chemical bath, commonly resulting in a gold or brown finish on aluminum surfaces.

It contains hexavalent chromium, which is highly regulated due to its toxic and carcinogenic properties. It poses risks to human health and is a fire hazard when combined with certain materials. Additionally, it is treated as an environmental hazard by the US EPA.

Special working and safety standards are required when handling Type 1 coatings, and there are additional considerations for recycling and disposal due to its toxic nature.
