Friction test

Six negative assays were recorded: No friction sensitivity was noted with the test item with a loading of 360 Newtons. No further tests were performed.

Mechanical sensitivity (shock)

Six negative assays were recorded: No shock sensitivity was noted with the 40-J force.

No further tests were performed. Heat sensitivity (flame) Three assays using a tube with a hole of 6-mm diameter: between approx 2 and 2.5 min, the test item overflowed, projections and sparks were observed. Between approx 3 and 4.5 min, smokes (2 assays) or a yellow flame of about 25-cm height (1 assay) was observed. Three assays using a tube with a hole of 2-mm diameter: between approx 2 and 3 min, the test item overflowed, projections and sparks were observed. Between approx 3 and 4 min, projections were observed. From approx 4 min to 4.5 min, smokes were observed (2 assays). In conclusion: six negative assays were recorded: No heat sensitivity was noted with the test item.

Interpretation of results:
non explosive
Remarks:
