Thermal sensitivity:
There were no explosions observed in any of the three tests in serial 1 and 2. There were no visible damages at the test tubes. In all cases the test substance burned down after a period of approx. 1 minute.
It could be reported that there was no explosive property of the test substance, induced by flame.
Mechanical sensitivity (Shock):
None of the six single tests showed any sparking or exploding.
It could be reported that there was no explosive property of the test substance, induced by shock.
The results and observations of the tests verified that the test substance had no explosive properties at all.
Thermal sensitivity (Friction)
Test is not required --> test substance is a liquid.
Individual results
The test item was a solidified melt. Therefore it was ground with a mortar before the measurements.
Thermal stability
The DSC-measurement in a closed glass crucible in a closed high pressure crucible showed an endothermal effect in the temperature range of 40 - 80 °C and an exothermal effect in the temperature range of 245 - 465 °C with an energy release of 913 J/g. No further endothermal or exothermal effects were observed up to the final temperature of 500 °C.
The DSC-measurement in a closed glass crucible showed an endothermal effect in the temperature range of 40 - 70 °C and an exothermal effect in the temperature range of 240 - 460 °C with an energy release of 848 J/g. No further endothermal or exothermal effects were observed up to the final temperature of 500 °C.
An optical inspection showed a black residue after the measurements.

Explosive properties
The heat of decomposition was above 500 J/g. Therefore the main test on explosive properties had to be performed.
Mechanical sensitivity (friction):
The test item was sieved < 0.5 mm. No explosion occurred within 6 tests using a pinload of 360 N, only a discoloration of the test item was observed.
Mechanical sensitivity (shock):
The test item was sieved. The fraction between 1 mm and 0.5 mm was used for the test. No explosion within 6 tests using a mass of 10 kg falling from a height of 0.4 m was observed.
Thermal sensitivity:
Three tests were performed with a circular nozzle plate with a hole of 2 mm diameter and three tests with a nozzle palte with a hole of 6 mm.
The following table gives the results of the thermal stability.

The tests on thermal sensitivity carried out with a nozzle with a diameter of 2.0 mm and 6.0 mm, respectively, showed no explosion.
Description of key information
No explosive properties (EU Method A.14 / OECD 113)
Key value for chemical safety assessment
- Explosiveness:
- non explosive
Additional information
The results and observations of the tests carried out verify that the substance has no explosive properties at all.
Justification for classification or non-classification
The available data on explosive properties of the test substance do not meet the criteria for classification according to Regulation (EC) 1272/2008, and therefore is conclusive but not sufficient for classification: Based on results and observations of the tests the substance is not explosive.
