Materials and methods

Test guideline
Qualifier:
according to guideline
Guideline:
EU Method A.14 (Explosive properties)
Deviations:
yes
Remarks:
1)The weight of the falling hammer is 5 kg and dropped from 0.8 m, however, the energy applied is the same as guideline, 40 J or 40 Nm. 2) In contrast to the EC guideline aluminium foil is used to pack the substance. 3) Ten tests are performed.

Results and discussion

Small-scale preliminary tests
Parameter:
other: More sensitive to shock than m-dinitrobenzene
Remarks on result:
negative (not further specified)
Remarks:
If all tests according to the Lütolf method are negative, the powder can be considered not shock sensitive. This is due to the fact that the reference substance meta-dinitrobenzene is not shock sensitive in similar conditions( although not tested simultan

Any other information on results incl. tables

RESULTS:

-10 times negative, not shock sensitive (sensitivity > 39.2 Nm)

Applicant's summary and conclusion

Conclusions:
The test substance is not shock sensitive ( sensitivity > 39.2 Nm).
