1 Classification and Labelling Physical Hazards Eugen Anwander, Institute for Environment & Food Safety State of Vorarlberg / Austria

2 Tour through the Topic physico-chemical hazards today (DSD 67/548/EEC) physical hazards tomorrow (CLP Regulation No. 1272/2008) classification with hazard classes of CLP labelling elements of CLP CLPs 16 physical hazard classes CLPs 6 supplemental physical hazard statements translation of physical hazards between DSD and CLP Page 2

3 Current Classification / Labelling Scheme Five physico-chemical hazards according to DSD 67/548/EEC Explosive Oxidising Exremely flammable Highly flammable Flammable Page 3

4 Current Classification / Labelling Scheme Ten R-phrases exist for physico-chemical hazards For the explosive hazard: R 2 Risk of explosion by shock, friction, fire or other sources of ignition R 3 Extreme risk of explosion by shock, friction, fire or other sources of ignition Page 4

5 Current Classification / Labelling Scheme For the oxidising hazard: R 7 May cause fire R 8 Contact with combustible material may cause fire R9Explosive when mixed with combustible material For the extremely flammable hazard: R 12 Extremely flammable Page 5

6 Current Classification / Labelling Scheme For the highly flammable hazard: R 11 Highly flammable R 15 Contact with water liberates extremely flammable gases R17Spontaneously flammable in air For the flammable hazard: R 10 Flammable Page 6

7 Current Classification / Labelling Scheme Other physico-chemical properties describing 11 hazards in addition to the classification (R-phrase): R 1 Explosive when dry R 4 Forms very sensitive explosive metallic compounds R 5 Heating may cause an explosion R 6 Explosive with or without contact with air R 7 May cause fire Page 7

8 Current Classification / Labelling Scheme R 14 Reacts violently with water R 16 Explosive when mixed with oxidising substances R 18 In use, may form flammable/explosive vapour-air mixture R 19 May form explosive peroxides R 30 Can become highly flammable in use R 44 Risk of explosion if heated under confinement Page 8

9 Future Classification / Labelling Scheme CLP Legal Basis in EU: REGULATION (EC) No 1272/2008 of 16 December 2008 on classification, labelling and packaging of substances and mixtures, amending and repealing Directives 67/548/EEC and 1999/45/EC and amending Regulation (EC) No 1907/ Page 9

10 Future Classification / Labelling Scheme CLP criteria for physical hazards from UN transport of dangerous goods (UN TDG Model Regulation) are applied in CLP testing methods from Orange Book (UN TDF Manual of Tests and Criteria), see testing of substances and mixtures (and explosive articles) testing in containers/packages testing dependent on amount in package testing in different physical states (gas, liquid) Page 10

11 Physical Hazards in CLP - Overview Annex I / Part 2 defines the classification criteria and the tests 16 physical hazard classes in CLP division of hazard classes in categories, types and devisions Annex I / Part 2 defines the labelling elements for each classification Page 11

14 Design of each of the 16 Hazard Entries in Annex I / Part 2 definition of substances subject to the hazard class (properties) classification criteria (test methods) hazard communication - labelling elements additional classification considerations (e.g. exemptions) decision flow charts in case of more complex criteria Page 14

15 Labelling Elements for Physical Hazards Detailed definition of labelling elements for each physical hazard in Annex I / Part 2: pictogram (Annex I and V) signal word: DANGER or WARNING (Annex I) hazard statement (Annex I and III) precautionary statements (Annex I and IV) covering prevention / response / storage / disposal Page 15
