Geltungsbereich und Anwendbarkeit

GB 19160-2008 applies to plastic jerricans used for packaging dangerous goods, specifically those manufactured primarily from polyethylene or polypropylene with a maximum capacity not exceeding 60L. This standard is mandatory for manufacturers producing plastic containers for hazardous materials transport in China. It categorizes packaging into Class I, II, and III based on the level of danger of the contents, covering both open-head (inlet diameter >70mm) and closed-head (inlet diameter ≤70mm) configurations.

Technische Anforderungen

The standard specifies strict physical and chemical requirements for dangerous goods plastic jerricans. Chapter 5 and 8.1 are designated as mandatory, covering capacity deviations, dimensional tolerances, and appearance criteria. Manufacturers must ensure that full capacity does not exceed 5% of the nominal capacity, and structural dimensions must adhere to specific deviation limits based on volume. Appearance requirements dictate that containers must be free from cracks, voids, and plasticization defects to ensure safe transport. Performance requirements are critical, particularly for compatibility testing. For first-time use with liquids, containers must undergo a compatibility test lasting no less than six months. The standard defines specific performance thresholds for airtightness, hydraulic pressure, and drop tests, which vary depending on the packaging class (I, II, or III) and whether the container is open or closed-head. Containers intended for liquid transport must withstand a 28-day stacking test at temperatures of 40°C or higher. Marking and storage are also strictly regulated. Every jerrican must bear a hazardous packaging mark compliant with the UN Recommendations on the Transport of Dangerous Goods. Additionally, the standard specifies that filling temperatures must not exceed 60°C, storage temperatures must remain below 40°C, and the shelf life from the date of production is strictly limited to 2 years.

Prüfverfahren

The standard outlines several critical testing procedures to verify compliance. The airtightness test evaluates closed-head jerricans by submerging them underwater while applying internal air pressure to check for leaks. The hydraulic pressure test subjects liquid-filled containers to specific pressure levels for 30 minutes. The stacking test assesses structural integrity under load, calculated via a specific formula, with conditions varying for solids (room temperature for 24h) and liquids (≥40°C for 28d). Finally, the drop test is conducted at a severely reduced temperature of -18°C, dropping samples from varying heights onto their weakest points to simulate extreme transport conditions.

Häufige Fragen

What products are regulated under GB 19160-2008?

This standard regulates plastic jerricans with a maximum capacity of not more than 60L, made primarily of polyethylene or polypropylene, and used for packaging dangerous goods.

Are there any updates from the previous version of GB 19160-2008?

The updated version revised capacity regulations to align with the UN Recommendations on the Transport of Dangerous Goods, removed specific size dimensions, added a definition for plastic jerricans, and introduced a 28-day stacking test at temperatures no lower than 40°C for liquid packaging.

How does GB 19160-2008 relate to international standards?

The standard aligns its classification and marking requirements with the UN Recommendations on the Transport of Dangerous Goods (Model Regulations). It also references several equivalent ISO standards for testing methods, such as ISO 2859-1 for sampling procedures.
