- Executive summary:
The determination of the explosive properties of the test item was conducted according to Regulation EC No. 440/2008 Method A.14. Explosive Properties.
A preliminary investigation was conducted for the determination of the thermal stability, via Differential Scanning Calorimetry (DSC). The substance was placed in the DSC apparatus, which was heated from room temperature to 500 °C with a heating rate of 3 K/min. Two measurements were performed. Since, in the temperature range of 250 – 350 °C an exothermic effect was observed with a specific decomposition energy of -750 J/g and -520 J/g, respectively, the main test was run.
Mechanical Sensitivity to friction and impact were determined, as well as the thermal sensitivity using the Koenen-Test.
In a series of six tests using the BAM friction apparatus with a force of 360 N no reaction was observed. In a series of six tests using the BAM Fallhammer with a mass of 10 kg and a drop height of 50 cm no reaction was observed. Three tests with a 2.0 mm and two tests with 6.0 mm diameter orifice plate were performed and no explosivity properies were observed.
Conclusion
Non explosive

Justification for classification or non-classification
According to the CLP Regulation (EC) No 1272/2008, 2.1 section, an explosive substance or mixture is a solid or liquid substance or mixture of substances which is in itself capable by chemical reaction of producing gas at such a temperature and pressure and at such a speed as to cause damage to the surroundings. Pyrotechnic substances are included even when they do not evolve gases.
In a series of six tests using the BAM friction apparatus with a force of 360 N no reaction was observed; in a series of six tests using the BAM Fallhammer with a mass of 10 kg and a drop height of 50 cm no reaction was observed; thermal sensitivity using the Koenen-Test.
