(49 CFR 172.101). For aircraft transport only, <br /> Calcium hydroxide is classified as Hazard Class 8-Corrosive, UN1910, Packing Group III. For passenger aircraft,the <br /> maximum net quantity allowed per container is 25 kg. For cargo aircraft the maximum net quantity allowed per <br /> container is 100kg. For quantities greater than 25kg up to and including 100kg,the container shall be labeled with <br /> CARGO AIRCRAFT ONLY. Because express carriers (i.e., Federal Express, Airborne Express, and United Parcel Service) <br /> ship by air, hydrated lime presented to these carriers for shipment must be packaged, marked, and labeled in <br /> accordance with IATA requirements, and must be accompanied by the appropriate shipping documentation. Only <br /> personnel trained and certified under applicable DOT Hazardous Materials Regulations (contained in Title 49 of the Code <br /> of Federal Regulations) may prepare any hydrated lime product for air transport. Hydrated lime is not classified as a <br /> hazardous material by DOT when transported by means other than air. <br /> Section 15.
