- Endpoint:
- explosive properties of explosives
- Type of information:
- other: expert statement based on an estimation
- Adequacy of study:
- key study
- Study period:
- 26 July 2007 to 02 November 2007
- Reliability:
- 2 (reliable with restrictions)
- Rationale for reliability incl. deficiencies:
- accepted calculation method
- Qualifier:
- according to guideline
- Guideline:
- other: UN Recommendations on the Transport of Dangerous Goods (Manual of Tests and Criteria, 4th Revised Edition, Appendix 6, "Orange Book".
- Version / remarks:
- 2003
- Deviations:
- no
- GLP compliance:
- no
- Remarks:
- not required for physicochemmical endpoints
- Test series:
- other: Structural evaluation and oxygen balance
- Method:
- other: Structural evaluation and oxygen balance
- Parameter:
- other: Structural evaluation and oxygen balance
- Result:
- other: Predicted not to have explosive properties
- Remarks on result:
- not measured/tested
- Remarks:
- Structural assessment indicated no chemical groups associated with explosive properties.
- Interpretation of results:
- other: Not classified according to EU criteria.
- Conclusions:
- The test material is not considered explosive.
- Executive summary:
The explosive properties of the test material were assessed using an appraisal of the reactive groups, calculation of the oxygen balance and calorimetric tests.
Based on the results of the assessment the test material is not to be classified as explosive and no experimental determination according to EC Guideline A.14 has to be performed. The result of the calorimetric test is not considered relevant for this substance as there are no sharp peaks and the compound does not contain chemical groups associated with explosive properties.
Thus it can be concluded beyond a reasonable doubt that the test material is not a potential explosive and does not have a potential for rapid energy release.
Reference
Reactive Groups
The appraisal of the molecular structure indicates no risk of rapid decomposition. The test material does not contain any of the structural features mentioned in the UN Recommendations. The occurrence of other chemical groups associated with explosive properties as described in the literature was also considered. No such groups were present.
The chlorine is only linked directly to carbon and therefore does not indicate a risk for explosive properties.
Oxygen Balance
The oxygen balance can only be estimated roughly based on the equation given in the UN Recommendations as the test material contains other elements than CHO. Taking these three elements into consideration, the oxygen balance is below -200.
Calorimetric Tests
The exothermic decomposition energy was determined using Differential Scanning Calorimetry in a closed, gold plated high pressure vessel (DSC). No sharp peaks were observed. One flat and very broad peak was detected between room temperature and 500 °C. The total decomposition energy (ΔHDEC) determined between room temperature and 500 °C) was found to be about 410 J/g, thus being near the UN limit of 500 J/g. The calorimetric test is of special importance for the evaluation of compounds containing chemical groups associated with explosive properties which is not the case for the present test material.
Description of key information
The test material is not considered explosive.

Additional information
The explosive properties of the test material were assessed using an appraisal of the reactive groups, calculation of the oxygen balance and calorimetric tests. The study was awarded a reliability score of 2 in accordance with the criteria set forth by Klimisch et al. (1997).
Based on the results of the assessment the test material is not to be classified as explosive and no experimental determination according to EC Guideline A.14 has to be performed. The result of the calorimetric test is not considered relevant for this substance as there are no sharp peaks and the compound does not contain chemical groups associated with explosive properties.
Thus it can be concluded beyond a reasonable doubt that the test material is not a potential explosive and does not have a potential for rapid energy release.
Justification for classification or non-classification
In accordance with the criteria for classification as defined in Annex I, Regulation (EC) No 1272/2008, the substance does not require classification with respect to explosive properties.
