UN 1834 — Sulphuryl chloride
Table A of ADR 2025 and the 49 CFR 172.101 Hazardous Materials Table for this number, kept side by side and never merged, plus the CLP label elements of the substances that ship under it.
The two tables are never merged. The same UN number can carry a different packing group, a different proper shipping name and entirely different special provisions in each system. Every value below sits under the name of the jurisdiction it comes from.
01 · Two jurisdictions
UN 1834 in ADR 2025 and in 49 CFR 172.101
The two systems differ for this number on 1 of 5 fields. Special provisions are deliberately absent from this comparison: identical code numbers mean different things in the two systems.

Transport category and the 1 000-point exemption
Column (15) of Table A decides whether a load stays under the exemption of ADR 1.1.3.6. Quantities of different categories are added with the multipliers below, and the sum must not exceed 1 000.
| Category | Max total quantity per transport unit | Multiplier in 1.1.3.6.4 | What it means |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | 20 | × 50 | Packing group I and the listed classes — the exemption runs out after 20 kg or litres per transport unit. |

Special provisions — ADR 2025, Chapter 3.3
Codes from column (6) of Table A, with the text of Chapter 3.3.1. These are ADR provisions only. A code with the same number exists in 49 CFR 172.102 and means something else there — the two lists are never combined.

Not imported and therefore not shown for this number: limited quantities (column 7a), excepted quantities (7b), packing instructions (8), tank codes (10–13) and the tunnel restriction code (15). An empty section is more honest than borrowed text.

Special provisions — 49 CFR 172.102
Codes from column (7) of the Hazardous Materials Table, with the text of § 172.102. These are United States provisions only and have nothing to do with the ADR codes above, even where the number is identical.
| 1 | This material is poisonous by inhalation (see § 171.8 of this subchapter) in Hazard Zone A (see § 173.116(a) or § 173.133(a) of this subchapter), and must be described as an inhalation hazard under the provisions of this subchapter. |

In addition, MC 312 and DOT 412 cargo tank motor vehicles must: a. Be ASME Code (U) stamped for 100% radiography of all pressure-retaining welds; b. Have accident damage protection which conforms with § 178.345-8 of this subchapter; c. Have a MAWP or design pressure of at least 87 psig: and d. Have a bolted manway cover. |

| TP2 | a. The maximum degree of filling must not exceed the degree of filling determined by the following: |
| TP38 | Each portable tank must be insulated with an insulating material so that the overall thermal conductance at 15.5 °C (60 °F) is no more than 1.5333 kilojoules per hour per square meter per degree Celsius (0.075 Btu per hour per square foot per degree Fahrenheit) temperature differential. Insulating materials may not promote corrosion to steel when wet. |
| TP44 | Each portable tank must be made of stainless steel, except that steel other than stainless steel may be used in accordance with the provisions of § 173.24b(b) of this subchapter. Thickness of stainless steel for tank shell and heads must be the greater of 7.62 mm (0.300 inch) or the thickness required for a portable tank with a design pressure at least equal to 1.5 times the vapor pressure of the hazardous material at 46 °C (115 °F). |

The orange-coloured plate for UN 1834
The upper half of the plate carries the hazard identification number, the lower half the UN number. Dimensions follow ADR 5.3.2.2.1: 400 × 300 mm, black border and dividing line 15 mm, figures 100 mm high.
X668 — highly toxic substance, corrosive, which reacts dangerously with water.
| 6 | Toxicity or risk of infection |
| 6 | Toxicity or risk of infection · doubled figure — intensification of that hazard |
| 8 | Corrosivity |
| X | The substance reacts dangerously with water. Water may only be used by approval of experts. |

05 · Substances
Substances shipped under UN 1834
Linked by CAS number, never by name: a name match once produced “acetone cyanohydrin” for acetone, and a wrong link here would be a wrong classification. Each entry opens its own reference page with the CLP classification and label elements.
06 · The label side
What UN 1834 looks like on a workplace label
The tables above are the transport classification. This is the other half of the same material: the CLP label elements of the substances linked to this number — what actually goes on the drum once it has been delivered. Transport marks and supply labels answer different regulations and do not replace one another.
Hazard statements on the substances under UN 1834
Source: harmonised classification, EU CLP Annex VI. Transport classification and supply classification are decided under different rules and do not have to agree.
07 · FAQ
UN 1834 — frequently asked questions
What is UN 1834?
UN 1834 is the United Nations number for Sulphuryl chloride. Under ADR 2025 it is assigned to class 6.1 (toxic substances), classification code TC3.
What packing group is UN 1834?
Under ADR 2025 UN 1834 is packing group I.
Is UN 1834 classified the same way in the United States and in Europe?
No. For UN 1834 the two tables differ on proper shipping name. Each panel on this page shows its own source; values from one system must not be carried over into the other.
What is the hazard identification number for UN 1834?
The orange-coloured plate for UN 1834 carries the hazard identification number X668 above the UN number. Under ADR 5.3.2.3.2 that number means: highly toxic substance, corrosive, which reacts dangerously with water.
What is the transport category of UN 1834?
Column (15) of Table A puts UN 1834 in transport category 1. Under ADR 1.1.3.6.3 the maximum total quantity per transport unit for that category is 20.
Which substances ship under UN 1834?
We hold 1 substance linked to UN 1834 by CAS number. Each one has its own reference page with the CLP classification, GHS pictograms and hazard statements that apply on the label — the workplace side of the same material.
Need the plate, the labels or the placards printed?
The orange plate above is a physical article, and so are the class labels in column (5). Our sister site GHSLabels.com covers printing and suppliers. For the workplace label of the same material, use the GHS label constructor, and browse other numbers in the UN number reference.
Reference aid only. Values are reproduced from ADR 2025 and the 49 CFR 172.101 table as published; the consignor remains responsible for the classification of a specific consignment. Always verify against the current published regulation and the supplier's safety data sheet.
