- Executive summary:
In a GLP study (Defitraces, 2010), the substance Guetol was tested according to EC A14 method, to determine it has explosive properties. The results were the following:
Mechanical sensitivity (shock):
Six negative assays were recorded: No mechanical sensitivity was noted with the test item.
Heat sensitivity (flame test) :
Six negative assays were recorded with a tube of 6-mm diameter and with a tube of 2-mm diameter:
No heat sensitivity was noted with the test item.
In conclusion, the test item Guetol was not considered to have explosive properties according to EC A14 criteria.
