Thermal stability

Two DSC measurements in closed glass crucibles showed exothermal effects in the temperature ranges of 145 - 205 °C and 210 -215 °C with an overall energy release of 43 J/9. Additionally two endothermal effects were observed in the temperature ranges of 205-210°C and 215 -230°C. No further endothermal or exothermal effects were observed up to 500 °C (final temperature of the measurement)

Explosive properties

The heat of decomposition in the DSC measurments was below 500 J/g. Therefore, the main test on explosive properties was not necessary.

Interpretation of results:
GHS criteria not met
Conclusions:
The test item is not an explosive.
Executive summary:

The test item had no explosive properties in the sense of the European Commission Regulation (EC) No. 440/2008, Method A. 14. The heat of decomposition in the DCS measurements was below 500 J/g.Therefore, the main test on explosive properties was not necessary.

Description of key information

The test item had no explosive properties in the sense of the European Commission Regulation (EC) No. 440/2008, Method A. 14.

Key value for chemical safety assessment

Explosiveness:
non explosive

Additional information

Justification for classification or non-classification

Classification, Labelling, and Packaging Regulation (EC) No 1272/2008

Based on the result, the substance is not considered to be classified for explosiveness.
