  1. CLASS 1 EXPLOSIVES 1

  2. CLASS 1: HAZARD DIVISIONS • 1.1 Substances and articles which have a mass explosion hazard. • 1.2 Substances and articles which have a projection hazard but not a mass explosion hazard. • 1.3 Substances and articles which have a fire hazard and either a minor blast hazard or a minor projection hazard or both, but not a mass explosion hazard.

  3. CLASS 1: HAZARD DIVISIONS • 1.4 Substances and articles which present no significant hazard. • 1.5 Very insensitive substances which have a mass explosion hazard. • 1.6 Extremely insensitive articles which do not have mass explosion hazard. Sequence degree of danger; (high) 1.1, 1.5, 1.2, 1.3, 1.6 and 1.4 (low)

  4. CLASS 1: CLASSIFICATION CODES Division followed by the letter of the compatibility group For example: 1.5 D

  5. CLASS 2 • Compressed gas • Liquefied gas • Refrigerated liquefied gas • Dissolved gas GASES

  6. CLASS 2 (continued) • 2.1 Flammable • 2.2 Non-flammable, non-toxic • 2.3 Toxic 2 2 2 Subsidiary Risks  8

  7. CLASS 2 (continued) • 2.1 Flammable • 2.2 Non-flammable, non-toxic • 2.3 Toxic Sequence degree of danger: 2 2 2 high low 2 2 2

  8. CLASS 3 FLAMMABLE LIQUIDS Flammable liquid ?  3

  9. Flammable liquids are liquids which have: • a melting point of 20°C or less at a pressure of 101,3 kPa; and • a vapour pressure at 50°C ≤ 300 kPa(3 bar); and • a flashpoint ≤ 60°C closed-cup test (≤ 65.6°C ; open-cup test); or • been offered for transport at temperatures ≥ their flashpoint.

  10. FLAMMABILITY Flashpoint: The lowest temperature of a liquid at which its vapour forms an ignitable mixture with air. Example: UN 1294 TOLUENE 7 0C Flammability depends on the flashpoint

  11. Fire hazard depends on local temperature

  12. VOLATILITY Volatility depends on the boiling point Boiling point: The temperature at which the vapour pressure of a liquid is equal to the pressure above the liquid. • Example: • UN 1294 TOLUENE 111 ºC

  13. CLASS 4.1 FLAMMABLE SOLIDS Flammable solid ?  4

  14. CLASS 4.2 Substances liable to spontaneous combustion Spontaneous combustible ?  4

  15. CLASS 4.3 Substances which, in contact with water, emit flammable gases Dangerous whenwet ? 

  42. CLASS 7 RADIOACTIVE MATERIAL RADIATION AND/OR CONTAMINATION DANGER

  43. CLASS 8 CORROSIVE SUBSTANCES ? CORROSIVE

  44. CLASS 9 MISCELLANEOUS DANGEROUS SUBSTANCES AND ARTICLES ?  Miscellaneous

  45. ENVIRONMENTALLY HAZARDOUS SUBSTANCES (AQUATIC ENVIRONMENT)

  46. IDENTIFICATION How are you able to identify dangerous cargo?

  47. IDENTIFICATION (continued) By name? Are these substances dangerous? A. Dowfume ? B. 2-Mercaptobenzothiazol? C. Anhydrol? D. Waterstof samengeperst?

  48. IDENTIFICATION (continued) Problems with identification by name in practice: A Tradename for methyl bromide B Non hazardous for transport C Synonym for ethanol D Dutch name for hydrogen compressed

  49. IDENTIFICATION (continued) • Identification by name only is often not possible! You need: • UN number (preceded by UN) + • PROPER SHIPPING NAME + • CLASSIFICATION CODE (Class 1) + • CLASS number “7” (Class 7) + • LABEL model number(s) (other classes)+ • PACKING GROUP (if applicable)

  50. IDENTIFICATION (continued) UN Number World-wide identification number of 4 figures assigned to a dangerous good or group of dangerous goods by the UN. For example: UN 1090, ACETON UN 1760, CORROSIVE LIQUID, N.O.S. UN 2764, TRIAZINE PESTICIDE, SOLID, TOXIC
