Cooper Bussmann has been shipping the above supercapacitor
product lines using the most conservative definition. As such,
these products have been shipped under the same classification
as one of the internal chemicals used, acetonitrile. They have
been shipping as a Class 3 Hazardous Materials according to
UN1648.

In December 2010, the UN adopted a classification specifically
for supercapacitors or more technically, "electric double layer
capacitors." This classification became effective January 1,
2013 under IATA regulations. The new entry is added to the
