ISO/TR 15916:2015为气态和液态氢的使用以及这些或其他形式（氢化物）的储存提供了指南。它确定了基本的安全问题、危害和风险，并描述了与安全相关的氢的特性。与特定氢应用相关的详细安全要求在单独的国际标准中处理。 本文中的“氢”是指正常的氢（1H2），而不是氘（2H2）或氚（3H2）。

ISO/TR 15916:2015 provides guidelines for the use of hydrogen in its gaseous and liquid forms as well as its storage in either of these or other forms (hydrides). It identifies the basic safety concerns, hazards and risks, and describes the properties of hydrogen that are relevant to safety. Detailed safety requirements associated with specific hydrogen applications are treated in separate International Standards. "Hydrogen" in this paper means normal hydrogen (¹H₂), not deuterium (²H₂) or tritium (³H₂).
