Class 2 Gases

Criteria

The heading of Class 2 covers pure gases, mixtures of gases, mixtures of one or more gases with one
or more other substances and articles containing such substances.
A gas is a substance which:
(a) at 50 °C has a vapour pressure greater than 300 kPa (3 bar); or
(b) is completely gaseous at 20 °C at the standard pressure of 101.3 kPa.
NOTE 1: UN No. 1052 HYDROGEN FLUORIDE, ANHYDROUS is nevertheless classified in
Class 8.
NOTE 2: A pure gas may contain other components deriving from its production process or added to
preserve the stability of the product, provided that the level of these components does not change its
classification or its conditions of carriage, such as filling ratio, filling pressure, test pressure.
NOTE 3: N.O.S. entries in 2.2.2.3 may cover pure gases as well as mixtures.

The substances and articles of Class 2 are subdivided as follows:
1. Compressed gas: a gas which when packaged under pressure for carriage is entirely gaseous at
-50 °C; this category includes all gases with a critical temperature less than or equal to -50 °C;
2. Liquefied gas: a gas which when packaged under pressure for carriage is partially liquid at
temperatures above -50 °C. A distinction is made between:
High pressure liquefied gas: a gas with a critical temperature above -50 °C and equal to
or below +65 °C; and
Low pressure liquefied gas: a gas with a critical temperature above +65 °C;
3. Refrigerated liquefied gas: a gas which when packaged for carriage is made partially liquid
because of its low temperature;
4. Dissolved gas: a gas which when packaged under pressure for carriage is dissolved in a liquid
phase solvent;
5. Aerosol dispensers and receptacles, small, containing gas (gas cartridges);
6. Other articles containing gas under pressure;
7. Non-pressurized gases subject to special requirements (gas samples);
8. Chemicals under pressure: liquids, pastes or powders, pressurized with a propellant that meets
the definition of a compressed or liquefied gas and mixtures thereof.
9. Adsorbed gas: a gas which when packaged for carriage is adsorbed onto a solid porous
material resulting in an internal receptacle pressure of less than 101.3 kPa at 20 °C and less
than 300 kPa at 50 °C.

Substances and articles (except aerosols and chemicals under pressure) of Class 2 are assigned to one
of the following groups according to their hazardous properties, as follows:
A asphyxiant;
O oxidizing;
F flammable;
T toxic;
TF toxic, flammable;
TC toxic, corrosive;
TO toxic, oxidizing;
TFC toxic, flammable, corrosive;
TOC toxic, oxidizing, corrosive.
For gases and gas mixtures presenting hazardous properties associated with more than one group
according to the criteria, the groups designated by letter T take precedence over all other groups. The
groups designated by letter F take precedence over the groups designated by letters A or O.
NOTE 1: In the UN Model Regulations, the IMDG Code and the ICAO Technical Instructions, gases
are assigned to one of the following three divisions, based on the primary hazard:
Division 2.1: flammable gases (corresponding to the groups designated by the capital letter F);
Division 2.2: non-flammable, non-toxic gases (corresponding to the groups designated by the
capital letters A or O);
Division 2.3: toxic gases (corresponding to the groups designated by the capital letter T i.e. T, TF,
TC, TO, TFC and TOC).
NOTE 2: Receptacles, small containing gas (UN No. 2037) shall be assigned to the groups A to TOC
according to the hazard of the contents. For aerosols (UN No. 1950), see 2.2.2.1.6. For chemicals
under pressure (UN Nos. 3500 to 3505), see 2.2.2.1.7.
NOTE 3: Corrosive gases are considered to be toxic, and are therefore assigned to the group TC,
TFC or TOC.

 

If a mixture of Class 2 mentioned by name in Table A of Chapter 3.2 meets different criteria as
mentioned in 2.2.2.1.2 and 2.2.2.1.5, this mixture shall be classified according to the criteria and
assigned to an appropriate N.O.S. entry.

Substances and articles (except aerosols and chemicals under pressure) of Class 2 which are not
mentioned by name in Table A of Chapter 3.2 shall be classified under a collective entry listed in
2.2.2.3 in accordance with 2.2.2.1.2 and 2.2.2.1.3. The following criteria shall apply:
Asphyxiant gases
Gases which are non-oxidizing, non-flammable and non-toxic and which dilute or replace oxygen
normally in the atmosphere.
Flammable gases
Gases which at 20 °C and a standard pressure of 101.3 kPa:
(a) are ignitable when in a mixture of 13% or less by volume with air; or
(b) have a flammable range with air of at least 12 percentage points regardless of the lower
flammable limit.
Flammability shall be determined by tests or by calculation, in accordance with methods adopted by
ISO (see ISO 10156:2010).
Where insufficient data are available to use these methods, tests by a comparable method recognized
by the competent authority of the country of origin may be used.
If the country of origin is not a Contracting Party to ADR these methods shall be recognized by the
competent authority of the first country Contracting Party to ADR reached by the consignment.
Oxidizing gases
Gases, which may, generally by providing oxygen, cause or contribute to the combustion of other
material more than air does. These are pure gases or gas mixtures with an oxidizing power greater
than 23.5% as determined by a method specified in ISO 10156:2010.
Toxic gases
NOTE: Gases meeting the criteria for toxicity in part or completely owing to their corrosivity are to
be classified as toxic. See also the criteria under the heading "Corrosive gases" for a possible
subsidiary corrosivity risk.
Gases which:
(a) are known to be so toxic or corrosive to humans as to pose a hazard to health; or
(b) are presumed to be toxic or corrosive to humans because they have a LC50 value for acute
toxicity equal to or less than 5 000 ml/m³ (ppm) when tested in accordance with 2.2.61.1.
In the case of gas mixtures (including vapours of substances from other classes) the following formula
may be used:
 
where fi = mole fraction of the ith component substance of the mixture;
Ti = toxicity index of the ith component substance of the mixture.
The Ti equals the LC50 value as found in packing instruction P200 of
4.1.4.1.
When no LC50 value is listed in packing instruction P200 of 4.1.4.1, a
LC50 value available in scientific literature shall be used.
When the LC50 value is unknown, the toxicity index is determined by
using the lowest LC50 value of substances of similar physiological and
chemical effects, or through testing if this is the only practical possibility.
Corrosive gases
Gases or gas mixtures meeting the criteria for toxicity completely owing to their corrosivity are to be
classified as toxic with a subsidiary corrosivity risk.
A gas mixture that is considered to be toxic due to the combined effects of corrosivity and toxicity has
a subsidiary risk of corrosivity when the mixture is known by human experience to be destructive to
the skin, eyes or mucous membranes or when the LC50 value of the corrosive components of the
mixture is equal to or less than 5 000 ml/m3 (ppm) when the LC50 is calculated by the formula:
 
 
 
where fci = mole fraction of the ith corrosive component substance of the mixture;
Tci = toxicity index of the ith corrosive component substance of the mixture.
The Tci equals the LC50 value as found in packing instruction P200 of
4.1.4.1.
When no LC50 value is listed in packing instruction P200 of 4.1.4.1, a
LC50 value available in scientific literature shall be used.
When the LC50 value is unknown the toxicity index is determined by
using the lowest LC50 value of substances of similar physiological and
chemical effects, or through testing if this is the only practical possibility.
 
 
 
 

 

Aerosols

Aerosols (UN No. 1950) are assigned to one of the following groups according to their hazardous

FC flammable, corrosive;
TF toxic, flammable;
TC toxic, corrosive;
TO toxic, oxidizing;
TFC toxic, flammable, corrosive;
TOC toxic, oxidizing, corrosive.
The classification depends on the nature of the contents of the aerosol dispenser.
NOTE: Gases, which meet the definition of toxic gases according to 2.2.2.1.5 and gases identified as
"Considered as pyrophoric" by table note c of Table 2 of packing instruction P200 in 4.1.4.1, shall
not be used as a propellant in an aerosol dispenser. Aerosols with contents meeting the criteria for
packing group I for toxicity or corrosivity shall not be accepted for carriage (see also 2.2.2.2.2).

components and the chemical heat of combustion is 30 kJ/g or more.
It shall not apply if the contents contain 1% by mass or less flammable components and the
heat of combustion is less than 20 kJ/g.
Otherwise the aerosol shall be tested for flammability in accordance with the tests described in
the Manual of Tests and Criteria, Part III, section 31. Extremely flammable and flammable
aerosols shall be assigned to group F;
NOTE: Flammable components are flammable liquids, flammable solids or flammable
gases and gas mixtures as defined in Notes 1 to 3 of sub-section 31.1.3 of Part III of the
Manual of Tests and Criteria. This designation does not cover pyrophoric, self-heating or
water-reactive substances. The chemical heat of combustion shall be determined by one of the
following methods ASTM D 240, ISO/FDIS 13943:1999 (E/F) 86.1 to 86.3 or NFPA 30B.
(d) Assignment to group T shall apply when the contents, other than the propellant of aerosol
dispensers to be ejected, are classified as Class 6.1, packing groups II or III;
(e) Assignment to group C shall apply when the contents, other than the propellant of aerosol
dispensers to be ejected, meet the criteria for Class 8, packing groups II or III;
(f) When the criteria for more than one group amongst groups O, F, T, and C are met, assignment
to groups CO, FC, TF, TC TO, TFC or TOC shall apply, as relevant.
 

Chemicals under pressure

Chemicals under pressure (UN Nos. 3500 to 3505) are assigned to one of the following
groups according to their hazardous properties, as follows:
A asphyxiant;
F flammable;
T toxic;
C corrosive;
FC flammable, corrosive;
TF toxic, flammable.
The classification depends on the hazard characteristics of the components in the
different states:
The propellant;
The liquid; or
The solid.
NOTE 1: Gases, which meet the definition of toxic gases or of oxidizing gases according to 2.2.2.1.5
or gases identified as "Considered as pyrophoric" by table note c of Table 2 of packing instruction
P200 in 4.1.4.1, shall not be used as a propellant in chemicals under pressure.
NOTE 2: Chemicals under pressure with contents meeting the criteria for packing group I for toxicity
or corrosivity or with contents meeting both the criteria for packing group II or III for toxicity and for
packing group II or III for corrosivity shall not be accepted for carriage under these UN numbers.

desensitized explosives of Class 3; self-reactive substances and solid desensitized explosives of Class
4.1; Class 4.2; Class 4.3; Class 5.1; Class 5.2; Class 6.2; or Class 7, shall not be used for carriage
under these UN numbers.
NOTE 4: A chemical under pressure in an aerosol dispenser shall be carried under UN No. 1950.
The following criteria shall apply:
(a) Assignment to group A shall apply when the contents do not meet the criteria for any other
group according to sub-paragraphs (b) to (e) below
