IATA: Organic Peroxides

Organic peroxides permitted for transport are listed in Appendix C.2 of the DGR. Each permitted substance is assigned a generic entry that is listed in Section 4.2 of the List of Dangerous Goods, from UN 3103 to UN 3120. The generic entry specifies the organic peroxide type, labeled B through F, if it is a solid or a liquid, and if temperature control is required. Organic peroxides that require temperature control are forbidden for air transport unless exempted by the appropriate state authority. Organic peroxides not listed in Appendix C.2 must be assigned a generic entry by the appropriate authority from the state of origin.
