03 · GHS classification

3-iodpropene hazard classification

Harmonised classification under CLP Annex VI. This is the legally binding classification in the EU; other jurisdictions may differ.

3-iodpropene pictograms and signal word

Signal wordDanger

3-iodpropene hazard class and category

GHS hazard classes 3-iodpropene falls into
Hazard class Category From code Pictogram
Flammable liquids GHS chapter 2.6 Category 2 H225 GHS02
Skin corrosion/irritation GHS chapter 3.2 Category 1A or 1B or 1C H314 GHS05

Where two values are shown with “or”, the hazard statement is shared by more than one category or by more than one class, and the code alone does not say which. H272, for example, belongs to oxidising liquids and to oxidising solids — the physical state decides. The binding answer for a specific entry is in the CLP Annex VI table itself.

Safety Data Sheet

Getting an SDS for 3-iodpropene

A Safety Data Sheet is written for a product, not for a substance: the supplier of the grade you actually buy issues it, so two suppliers of 3-iodpropene issue two different sheets. That is why there is no single authoritative SDS for a substance to download — what there is, is the job of collecting the sheets for the products you hold and keeping them current as suppliers revise them.

04 · Precautionary statements

3-iodpropene precautionary statements

CLP Annex VI assigns 10 precautionary statements to 3-iodpropene. They are grouped the way a label groups them: what to do before handling, what to do when something has already happened, how to store it and how to dispose of it.

Response

What to do once exposure, spillage or fire has already happened.

Storage

How the container has to be kept between uses.

05 · Names in the regulation

3-iodpropene name in 23 EU languages

CLP Annex VI Part 3 is published in every language edition of the regulation, and the identification column is written out in each of them. Nothing below is translated by us: each line is the name as that edition prints it. Under Art. 18(2) the substance name from Annex VI is a lawful product identifier, so this is the wording to put on a label going to that market — and where the cell lists several designations, any one of them qualifies.

All 23 language editions of Annex VI carry this entry. Irish is the twenty-fourth official EU language and has no line here for a different reason: no consolidated CLP text has ever been published in Irish, so there is no Irish edition of Annex VI to quote a name from.

08 · Transport

3-iodpropene UN number and transport classification

Transport classification is a separate system from the GHS classification above. It decides how a package is marked and how a load may be carried; it does not follow from the workplace label, and the workplace label does not follow from it. The entries below are linked by CAS number, never by name.

What does a 3-iodpropene label have to show?

Under CLP Annex VI the label for 3-iodpropene carries the pictograms Flame and Corrosion and the signal word is Danger.

Is 3-iodpropene flammable?

Yes. CLP Annex VI assigns 3-iodpropene H225 — highly flammable liquid and vapour.

Is 3-iodpropene a carcinogen?

CLP Annex VI records no harmonised carcinogenicity classification for 3-iodpropene. Annex VI is a list of agreed classifications, not a list of substances found safe, so this is an absence of a classification rather than a clean bill of health.

How should 3-iodpropene be stored?

CLP Annex VI assigns 3-iodpropene the storage statement P403.
