Compliance overview
Scope and applicability
This standard applies to the classification and labelling of pyrophoric liquids according to the Globally Harmonized System (GHS). It is designed for manufacturers and suppliers handling chemicals that can ignite within 5 minutes of contact with air. Compliance is mandatory for all chemical products entering the Chinese market.
Technical requirements
The standard establishes the criteria for classifying pyrophoric liquids into specific hazard categories. It defines a substance as a pyrophoric liquid if it ignites within a short timeframe when exposed to air. It mandates specific labelling elements including hazard pictograms, signal words, and hazard statements. For this category, the signal word "Danger" is required. The standard also outlines comprehensive precautionary statements covering general, prevention, response, storage, and disposal measures to ensure safe handling. Manufacturers must ensure all label elements align with the specified GHS requirements.
Testing methods
Classification is determined using the test method N.3 as specified in the UN Recommendations on the Transport of Dangerous Goods: Manual of Tests and Criteria. The test evaluates whether the liquid ignites or chars an inert carrier/filter paper within 5 minutes of air exposure.
