Section 172.101

49 CFR Ch. I (10-1-18 Edition)

according to their application, such as
 - Coating solution -  or  - Extracts, flavoring, liquid - , rather than by an n.o.s.
entry, such as  - Flammable liquid,
n.o.s. -  It should be noted, however,
that an n.o.s. description as a proper
shipping name may not provide sufficient information for shipping papers
and package markings. Under the provisions of subparts C and D of this part,
the technical name of one or more constituents which makes the product a
hazardous material may be required in
association with the proper shipping
name.
(iii) Multiple hazard materials. If a material meets the definition of more
than one hazard class, and is not identified in the Table specifically by name
(e.g., acetyl chloride), the hazard class
of the material shall be determined by
using the precedence specified in
Section 173.2a of this subchapter, and an appropriate shipping description (e.g.,
 - Flammable liquid, corrosive n.o.s. - )
shall be selected as described in paragraph (c)(12)(ii) of this section.
(iv) If it is specifically determined
that a material is not a forbidden material and does not meet the definition
of any hazard class, the material is not
a hazardous material.
(13) Self-reactive materials and organic
peroxides. A generic proper shipping
name for a self-reactive material or an
organic peroxide, as listed in Column 2
of the Table, must be selected based on
the material-s technical name and concentration, in accordance with the provisions of Section 173.224 or Section 173.225 of this
subchapter, respectively.
(14) A proper shipping name that describes all isomers of a material may
be used to identify any isomer of that
material if the isomer meets criteria
for the same hazard class or division,
subsidiary risk(s) and packing group,
unless the isomer is specifically identified in the Table.
(15) Unless a hydrate is specifically
listed in the Table, a proper shipping
name for the equivalent anhydrous
substance may be used, if the hydrate
meets the same hazard class or division, subsidiary risk(s) and packing
group.
(16) Unless it is already included in
the proper shipping name in the
Section 172.101 Table, the qualifying words

 - liquid -  or  - solid -  may be added in association with the proper shipping
name when a hazardous material specifically listed by name in the Section 172.101
Table may, due to the differing physical states of the various isomers of the
material, be either a liquid or a solid
(for example  - Dinitrotoluenes, liquid - 
and  - Dinitrotoluenes, solid - ). Use of
the words  - liquid -  or  - solid -  is subject
to the limitations specified for the use
of the words  - mixture -  or  - solution - 
in paragraph (c)(10) of this section. The
qualifying word  - molten -  may be
added in association with the proper
shipping name when a hazardous material, which is a solid in accordance
with the definition in Section 171.8 of this subchapter, is offered for transportation in
the
molten
state
(for
example,
 - Alkylphenols, solid, n.o.s., molten - ).
(d) Column 3: Hazard class or Division.
Column 3 contains a designation of the
hazard class or division corresponding
to each proper shipping name, or the
word  - Forbidden - .
(1) A material for which the entry in
this column is  - Forbidden -  may not be
offered for transportation or transported. This prohibition does not apply
if the material is diluted, stabilized or
incorporated in a device and it is
classed in accordance with the definitions of hazardous materials contained
in part 173 of this subchapter.
(2) When a reevaluation of test data
or new data indicates a need to modify
the  - Forbidden -  designation or the
hazard class or packing group specified
for a material specifically identified in
the Table, this data should be submitted to the Associate Administrator.
(3) A basic description of each hazard
class and the section reference for class
definitions appear in Section 173.2 of this subchapter.
(4) Each reference to a Class 3 material is modified to read  - Combustible
liquid -  when that material is reclassified in accordance with Section 173.150(e) or (f)
of this subchapter or has a flash point
above 60 SectionC (140 SectionF) but below 93 SectionC (200
SectionF).
(e) Column 4: Identification number.
Column 4 lists the identification number assigned to each proper shipping
name. Those preceded by the letters
 - UN -  are associated with proper shipping names considered appropriate for
