There are outstanding changes not yet made by the legislation.gov.uk editorial team to The Explosives (Hazard Information and Packaging for Supply) Regulations (Northern Ireland) 2009. Any changes that have already been made by the team appear in the content and are referenced with annotations.
Revised legislation carried on this site may not be fully up to date. Changes and effects are recorded by our editorial team in lists which can be found in the ‘Changes to Legislation’ area. Where those effects have yet to be applied to the text of the legislation by the editorial team they are also listed alongside the legislation in the affected provisions.

Whole provisions yet to be inserted into this Rule (including any effects on those provisions):
4.2 For gases that produce such effects (R34, R35 or R36, R37, R38, R41), the individual concentration limits specified in Table IVA, expressed as a volume/volume percentage determine, when appropriate, the classification of the preparation.
Classification of the substance (gas) | Classification of the preparation | |||
---|---|---|---|---|
C with R35 | C with R34 | Xi with R41 | Xi with R36, R37 R38 | |
(*) According to the approved classification and labelling guide, when a substance or preparation is classified as corrosive and assigned the risk phrase R34 or R35, the risk of severe damage to the eyes is considered implicit and the risk phrase R41 is not included on the label. Consequently, if the preparation contains corrosive substances with R35 or R34 below the concentration limits for a classification of the preparation as corrosive, such substances can contribute to a classification of the preparation as irritant (R41) or irritant (R36). | ||||
Note

C with R35 | concentration ≥ 1% R35 obligatory | 0.2% ≤ concentration < 1% R34 obligatory | 0.2%(*) | 0.02% ≤ concentration < 0.2% R36/37/38 obligatory |
C with R34 | concentration ≥ 5% R34 obligatory | 5%(*) | 0.5% ≤ concentration < 5% R36/37/38 obligatory | |
Xi with R41 | concentration ≥ 5% R41 obligatory | 0.5% ≤ concentration < 5% R36 obligatory | ||
Xi with R36, R37, R38 | concentration ≥ 5% R36, R37, R38 are obligatory as appropriate |
