General provisions
2002(1) This Annex specifies the dangerous goods to be
excluded frominternational carriage by road and the
dangerous goods to be accepted for such carriage under
certain conditions. It groups the dangerous goods in restric-tiveandnon-restrictiveclasses.
Of the dangerous goods covered by the headings of the
restrictiveclasses(Classes1,2and7),thosewhicharelistedintheclausesconcerningtheseclasses(marginals2101,2201and 2701) are to be accepted for carriage only under theconditions specified in these clauses, and others are to be
excluded fromcarriage. Som e of the dangerous goods
covered by the headings of the non-restrictive classes(Classes 3, 4.1, 4.2,4.3, 5.1, 5.2, 6.1, 6.2, 8 and 9) are, bynotes inserted in the clauses concerning the various Classes,excluded fromcarriage; of the other goods covered by the
headings of the non-restrictive classes, those which are
mentioned intheclausesconcerningtheseclasses(marginals2301, 2401, 2431, 2471, 2501, 2551, 2601, 2651, 2801 and2901) are to be accepted for carriage only under the condi-tions specified in these clauses; those which are notmentioned or covered by one of the collective headings are
not deemed to be dangerous goods for the purposes of this
Agreement and are to be accepted for carriage without anyspecialconditions.

The particulars to be entered in the document shall be
drafted in an official language of the forwarding country,and also, if that language is not English, French orGerman, in English, French or German, unless interna-tional road transport tariffs, if any, or agreementsconcluded between the countries concerned in the trans-
portoperation,provideotherwise.
b) instructionstobeimplementedintheeventofanaccident

(4) If by reason of the size of the load a consignment
cannot be loaded in its entirety ona single transport unit, atleast as many separate documents, or copies of the singledocument, shall be made out as transport units loaded.
Furthermore, in all cases separate transport documents shall
be made out for consignments or parts of consignmentswhich may not be loaded together on the same vehicle byreasonoftheprohibitionssetforthinAnnexB.
(5) Outer packagings additional to those specified in this
Annex may be used providing that they do not contravene
the spirit of the provisions of this Annex relating to outerpackagings. If such additional packagings are used, theprescribedmarkingandlabelsshallbeappliedtothem.
(6) If the mixed packing of several dangerous substances
withoneanotherorwithothergoodsisallowedbytheprovi-
sions of section A.3 of the provisions applicable to thevarious classes, the inner packagings containing differentdangeroussubstancesshallbecarefully andeffectively sepa-rated fromone another in the collective packagings if

not mentioned by name in the lists of substances of thevariousclasses:
Note:1. Solutions and mixtures comprise two or more
components. These components may be eithersubstances of this Directive or substances whicharenotsubjecttotheprovisionsofthisDirective.
2. Solutions and mixtures containing one or more
components of a restrictive Class are not to be
accepted for carriage unless those components arelisted by name in the list of substances of therestrictiveclass.
3. Solutions and mixtures having a specific activity
exceeding 70 kBq/kg (2nCi/g) are substances of
Class7[seemarginal2700(1)].
a) A solution or mixture containing a dangerous substance
listed by name in this Directive together with one or
more non-dangerous substances, shall be regarded as the
dangeroussubstancelistedbyname,unless:
1. The solution or mixture is specifically listed by name
elsewhereinthisDirective;or
2. It is quite clear fromthe itemfor the dangerous
substancethatitisapplicable onlytothepureortech-nicallypuresubstance;or
3. The class, physical state or packing group (letter), of
the solution or mixture is different from that of thedangeroussubstance.
For such solutions and mixtures, the word ‘solution’ or
‘mixture’ shall then be added as part of the name in thetransport document for the purposes of clarity in thedescription,forexample,‘acetonesolution’.
If the class, physical state or packing group are different
fromthat of the pure substance, the solution or m ixture
shallbeassignedtoanappropriaten.o.s.entry,depending
onthedegreeofdanger.
b) Substances having more than one danger characteristic
and solutions and mixtures containing two or morecomponentssubjecttothisDirectiveshallbeplacedunderan itemand letter of the appropriate Class in accordancewith their danger characteristics. Such classification
according to the danger characteristics shall be carried
outasfollows:
1.1 The physical and chemical characteristics and
physiological properties shall be determined bymeasurement or calculation and be classifiedaccordingtothecriteriaofthevariousclasses.1994L0055—EN—01.01.1995—000.001—17

nantdanger.
2. If a substance presents more than one danger char-
acteristic or if a mixture or solution contains more
than one component of the classes or groups of
substances listed below, it shall be classified in theclass or the group of substances presenting thepredominantdanger.
2.1 If there is no predominant danger, classification
shallbebasedonthefollowingorderofprecedence:

carriage. These substances and articles are only to be
accepted for carriage subject to conditions set out inmarginals 2100 (2) to 2116, Appendix A.1 and Annex B.They are then considered as substances and articles of thisDirective.
(2) Class1comprises:
(a) — Explosive substances: solid or liquid substances (or
mixtures of substances) capable by chemical reaction
ofproducinggasesatsuchatemperatureandpressureand at such a speed as to cause damage to thesurroundings.
— Pyrotechnic substances: substances or mixtures of
substances designed to produce an effect by heat,light, sound, gas or smoke or a combination of these
as the result of non-detonating self-sustaining
exothermicchemicalreactions.
Note:1. Explosive substances which are unduly
sensitive or are liable to spontaneous reac-tionarenottobeacceptedforcarriage.
2. Substances which are not themselves explo-
sive but which may form an explosive
mixture of gas, vapour or dust are not

The heading of Class 3 also covers flammable liquid
substances and molten solid substances with a flashpoint ofmore than 61 ºC and which are carried or handed over for
carriage whilst heated at temperatures equal to or higher
thantheirflashpoint.
Substances having a flashpoint above 35 ºC, non-toxic and
non-corrosive,which,underthetestconditionsgiven,donot
sustain combustion (see Appendix A.3, marginal 3304) are

forcarriage(see,however,marginal2002(8),footnote(

Self-reactive substances
(12) Thedecomposition ofself-reactive substancescan be
initiatedbyheat,contactwithcatalyticimpurities(e.g.acids,heavy-metal compounds, bases), friction or impact. The rate
of decomposition increases with temperature and varies with
the substance. Decomposition, particularly if no ignitionoccurs,mayresultintheevolutionoftoxicgasesorvapours.For certain self-reactive substances, the temperature shouldbecontrolled. Someself-reactive substancesmay decomposeexplosively,particularlyifconfined.
This characteristic may be modified by the addition of dilu-
ents or by the use of appropriate packagings. Some self-reactive substances burn vigorously. Self-reactive substances
are,forexample,somecompoundsofthetypeslistedbelow:
aliphaticazocompounds(-C-N=N-C-);
organicazides(-C-N

ofClass5.2,onlythosewhicharelistedinmarginal2551or
are covered by a collective heading of that marginal are
subject to the conditions set out in marginals 2550 (4) to2567 and to the provisions of this Annex and of Annex B.They are then considered as substances and articles of thisDirective(
1).
Note:For the classification of solutions and mixtures (such
as preparations and wastes), see also marginal 2002(8).
(2) Organic peroxides and formulations of organic perox-
idesarenotconsideredtobesubstancesofClass5.2,if:
— they contain not more than 1,0 % available oxygen from
the organic peroxides when containing not more than1,0%hydrogenperoxide;
— they contain not more than 0,5 % available oxygen from
the organic peroxides when containing more than 1,0 %butnotmorethan7,0%hydrogenperoxide;or
— tests have proved that they are of type G [see paragraph
(6)].
Note:The available oxygen content ( %) of an organic
peroxide formulation is given by the formula 16 ×∑(n
i×ci/mi)where:
ni— numberofperoxygengroupspermoleculeof
organicperoxidei;
Ci— concentration (mass %) of organic peroxide
i;and
mi— molecularmassoforganicperoxidei.
(3) The following organic peroxides are not to be
permittedforcarriageundertheprovisionsofClass5.2:
— organic peroxides type A [see Appendix A.1, marginal
3104(2)(a)].
Definition
(4) Class5.2covers organic substances which contain the
bivalent-O-O-structureandmaybeconsideredderivativesof
hydrogenperoxide,whereoneorbothofthehydrogenatoms
havebeenreplacedbyorganicradicals.
Properties
(5) Organic peroxides are thermally unstable substances
which are liable to exothermic self-accelerating decomposi-tion at normal or elevated temperatures. The decompositioncan be initiated by heat, contact with impurities (e.g. acids,heavy-metal compounds, amines), friction or impact. The
rate of decomposition increases with temperature and varies
with the organic peroxide formulation. Decomposition mayresult in the evolution of harmful, or flammable, gases orvapours. Some organic peroxides may decompose explo-sively, particularly if confined. This characteristic may bemodified bythe addition of diluents or by the use of appro-
priate packagings. Many organic peroxides burn vigorously.
Contact oforganic peroxideswiththeeyesshallbeavoided.Some organic peroxides will cause serious injury to thecornea, even after brief contact, or will be corrosive to theskin.1994L0055—EN—01.01.1995—000.001—189

Classification oforganicperoxides
(6) Organic peroxides are classified into seven types
according to the degree of danger. The principles to beapplied to the classification of substances not listed inmarginal 2551 are set out in Appendix A.1, marginal 3104.The types of organic peroxide range fromtype A, which is
not accepted for carriage in the packaging in which it is
tested, to type G, which is not subject to the provisions ofClass5.2[seemarginal2561(5)].TheclassificationoftypesBtoFisdirectlyrelatedtothemaximumquantityallowedinonepackaging.
(7) Organic peroxides and formulations of organic perox-
ides listed in marginal 2551 are assigned to collectiveheadings:
—1

Thecollectiveheadingsspecify:
— thetype(BtoF)oforganicperoxide,seeparagraph(6);
— physicalstate(liquid/solid),seemarginal2553(1);and
— temperature control (when required), see paragraph (16)
to(19).
Mixturesoftheseformulationsmaybeclassifiedasthesame

component and be transported under the conditions of trans-port given forthistype. However,astwostable componentscanformathermallylessstablemixture,theselfacceleratingdecomposition temperature of the mixture should be deter-mined and, if necessary, the control and emergency
temperature derived from the SADT in accordance with
marginal2550(17).

— theavailable dataindicatethatthecontroltemperature, if
any,issufficiently lowtoprevent any dangerousdecom-position and sufficiently high to prevent any dangerous
phaseseparation.
Desensitizationoforganicperoxides
(10) In order to ensure safety during carriage, organic
peroxides are in many cases desensitized by organic liquids
orsolids,inorganicsolidsorwater.Whereapercentage ofasubstanceisstipulated,thisreferstothepercentagebymass,roundedtothenearestwholenumber.Ingeneral,desensitiza-tion shall be such that, in case of spillage, the organicperoxidewillnotconcentratetoadangerousextent.1994L0055—EN—01.01.1995—000.001—190

pointofnotlessthan5ºC.
Type B diluents may only be used for desensitization of
organic peroxides for which temperature control is required.Theboilingpointoftheliquidshallbeatleast50ºChigherthanthecontroltemperatureoftheorganicperoxide.
(12) Diluents, other than type A or B, may be added to
organic peroxide formulations as listed in marginal 2551
providedthattheyarecompatibleanddonotchangetheclas-sification.
(13) Water may only be used for the desensitization of
organic peroxides which are listed in marginal 2551 or inthe competent authority decision according to paragraph (8)as being ‘with water’ or ‘as a stable dispersion in water’.
Samples of organic peroxides or formulations of organic
peroxides not listed in marginal 2551 may also be desensi-tised with water provided the requirements of paragraph (9)aremet.
(14) Organic andinorganic solidsmaybe usedfordesen-
sitization of organic peroxides provided that they are
compatible.
(15) Compatible liquids and solids are those which have
no detrimental influence on the thermal stability and hazardtypeoftheorganicperoxideformulation.
Temperature controlprovisions
(16) Certain organic peroxides may only be carried under
temperature-controlled conditions.Thecontroltemperatureisthemaximumtemperatureatwhichtheorganicperoxidecanbe safely carried. It is assumed that the temperature of theimmediate surroundings of a package only exceeds 55 ºC
duringcarriageforarelativelyshorttimeina24hourperiod.
Intheevent oflossoftemperature control, it maybeneces-sary to implement emergency procedures. The emergencytemperatureisthetemperatureatwhichsuchproceduresshallbeimplemented.
(17) The control and emergency temperatures are derived
from the self-accelerating decomposition temperature
(SADT)whichisdefinedasthelowesttemperature atwhichself-accelerating decomposition may occur with a substancein the packaging as used during carriage (see Table 1). TheSADT shall be determined in order to decide whether asubstance shall be subjected to temperature control during
carriage. Provisions for the determination of the SADT are
giveninAppendixA.1,marginal3103.

fromthe table in m arginal 2600(3), using an LD
50value obtained
by multiplying the LD50value of
the active substance by: 100/X, Xbeing the percentage of active1994L0055—EN—01.01.1995—000.001—224

SectionI
General packingconditions
3500(1) Packagings shall be so manufactured and closed as to
preventanyleakageofcontentsfromapackagepreparedfordispatch such as might be caused in normal conditions ofcarriage particularly by vibration or changes in temperature,humidity or pressure. No dangerous substance shall adhere
to the outside of packages. These provisions apply both to
newandtoreusedpackagings.
(2) Parts of packagings which are in direct contact with
dangerous substances shall not be affected by chemical orother action ofthosesubstances; wherenecessary, they shallbe provided with a suitable inner coating or treatment. Suchpartsofpackagingsshallnotincorporateconstituentsliableto
react dangerously with the contents, to formhazardous

(3) Each packaging except inner packagings of combina-
tion packagings shall conformto a design type tested andapproved in accordance with the requirements laid down insection IV. Mass-produced packagings shall conformto theapproveddesigntype.
(4) Where packagings are filled with liquid substances,
sufficient ullage shall be left to ensure that no leakage ofliquid substance and no permanent distortion of the packa-
ging occurs as a result of expansion of the liquid substance,
due to temperatures which may be attained during carriage.Forafillingtemperature of15ºC,thedegreeoffillingshallbe determined asfollows, unlessotherwise provided underaparticularclass,either:

foundfreeofdefectsaffectingtheability to
withstand the performance test; the term
includes those which are refilled with thesameorsimilarcompatiblecontentsandarecarried within distribution chains controlledbytheconsignoroftheproduct;

(3) Thefollowingdefinitions areapplicable topackagings
in(1)and(2)above:
Closures: devices which close an opening in a recep-
tacle;
Inner packa-
gings:packagings for which an outer packaging is
requiredforcarriage.
Inner recep-
tacles:receptacles which require an outer packa-
ging in order to performtheir containm entfunction.1994L0055—EN—01.01.1995—000.001—389

volume of receptacles or packagingsexpressedinlitres.
Maximum net
mass:the maximum net mass of contents in a
single packaging or maximum combinedmass of inner packagings and the contentsthereofexpressedinkilogrammes.
Outer packa-
ging:the outer protection of a composite or
combination packaging together with any
absorbent materials, cushioning and anyother components necessary to contain andprotect inner receptacles or inner packa-gings.

Sift-proof
packagingspackagings impermeable to dry contents
including fine solid material produced
duringcarriage.
Note:The ‘inners’ of ‘combination packagings’ are always
termed ‘inner packagings’ not ‘inner receptacles’. Aglass bottle is an example of such an ‘inner packa-ging’. The ‘inners’ of ‘composite packagings’ are
normally termed ‘inner receptacles’. For example, the
‘inner’ofa6HA1compositepackaging(plasticsmate-rial) is such an ‘inner receptacle’ since it is normallynot designed to performa containm ent functionwithout its ‘outer packaging’ and is not therefore an‘innerpackaging’.
Coding of design types for packagings conforming to
marginal3510(1)and(2)
3511(1) Thecodenumberconsistsof:
an Arabic numeral indicating the kind ofpackaging, e.g.
drum,jerrican,etc.;
a capital letter or letters (Latin characters) indicating the
natureofthematerial,e.g.steel,wood,etc.;
where necessary, an Arabic numeral indicating the cate-
gory of packaging within the type to which thepackagingbelongs.
In the case of composite packagings, two capital letters
(Latin characters) shall be used. The first shall indicate
the material of the inner receptacle and the second that

Notes 1:The maximum quantities shown in the above table
represent a degree of danger which may, from ahighly simplified standpoint, be considered as
equivalent for each of the substances listed. This
danger level shall not be exceeded even where aload not affected by any prohibition on mixedloading includes more than one dangeroussubstance.
Where the same exemption limit applies to the
substances concerned, their respective masses areadded and the total must not exceed that limit.Where, however, different exemption limits apply
to the substances, the maximum quantities allowed
foreachshallbecalculatedasfollows:

(6) Resistancetochemicalagents
Flatreinforcedplasticstestplates,preparedinthelaboratory,
are subjected to attack by the dangerous substance at atemperature of 50 ºC for 30 days in accordance with thefollowingprocedure:
(a)Descriptionof the test apparatus (showninfigure 2)
The test apparatus comprises a glass cylinder, diameter
140×150mm,150mmhighwithtwonozzlespositioned
at 135
oone fitted with an NS 29 joint to take an inter-
mediate pipeforarefluxcondenser (1),theothernozzlefittedwithanNS14,5jointtotakeathermometer(2),anintermediate pipe for a reflux condenser and a refluxcondenser not shown in the diagram. The glass part ofthe apparatus shall be in glass resistant to changes of
temperature.
The specim ens taken fromthe test plates formthe base
and the top of the glass cylinder. They are sealed to thesidesofthecylinderbyaPTFEcollar.Thecylinderwith
the two specimens is clamped between two pressure
plates in corrosion-resistant steel with six threaded boltstightened by means of wing nuts. An asbestos washermustbeplacedbetweenthepressureplatesandthespeci-mens. These washers are not shownin figure 2. Heating
is effected from outside by means of an automatically
controlled sleeve heater. The temperature is measured inthechambercontainingtheliquid.
(b)Operationof the test apparatus
The test apparatus allows only flat plates of uniform
thicknesstobetested.Thetestplatesshould,ifpossible,be4mmthick.Shouldtheseplatesbecoveredwithagelcoating, they must be tested in condition as forpracticaluse. Six hexagonal specimens, each side measuring100mm,arecutfromthetestplate.
For each test, three speciments are prepared per appa-
ratus. One of these samples is used as a reference andthe other two are used for checking in the liquid zone,andvapourzoneofthedevicerespectively.1994L0055—EN—01.01.1995—000.001—648
▼B
(c)Test procedure
The specimens to be tested are placed on the apparatus
withthesurfacewhichmaybegel-coatedfacinginwards.1200 ml of test liquid is poured into the glass cylinder.The apparatus is then heated to the test temperature. Aconstant temperature is maintained during the test. Afterthe test the apparatus is cooled to the ambient tempera-
ture and the test liquid removed. The specimens tested
are immediately washed with distilled water. Liquidswhich are not soluble in water are removed with asolventwhichdoesnotattackthespecimens.Mechanicalcleaningoftheplatescannotbeperformedbecauseofthedangerofdamagingthesurfaceofthespecimens.
(d)Evaluation
Avisualexaminationismade:
— if the visual examination reveals excessive attack
(cracks, bubbles, pores, peeling off, swelling, orroughness),thetestisconclusivenegatively;
— if the visual examination reveals no abnormality,
bending tests are made by the methods specified in
marginal213140(4)onthetwospecimenssubjectedto chemical attack and on the reference specimen. Inthis case the bending strength shall notbe more than20 % lower than the value ascertained for the testplatenotsubjectedtoanystress.
