Key result
Test series:
UN Test series 3
Method:
UN Test 3 (b) (i): BAM friction apparatus
Parameter:
other: friction test
Value:
0
Result:
negative, no explosion
Interpretation of results:
GHS criteria not met
Conclusions:
Non-explosive
Executive summary:

The test was conducted to determine the explosive properties according to the guideline EU A.14. The test substance was subjected to thermal and mechanical sensitivity tests (The BAM Fall Hammer test, The BAM Friction test and The Koenen Steel Tube test) to determine its explosive properties. All the tests were negative and concluded that the test substance is non-explosive.

Specific details on test material used for the study:
Test substance name: DE-795
Substance ID: TSN 100097
Reference Number: GHE-P 7269
Purity: 97.4%
Key result
Method:
other: Based on ASTM D2540, Standard Test Method for Explodability
Parameter:
other: Drop weight
Result:
other: No positive tests were seen at 8", 15" or 20.25" in the impact explodability test
Remarks:
Test substance was considered to be insensitive to impact explodability
Interpretation of results:
GHS criteria not met
Conclusions:
Non-explosive
Executive summary:

The test was conducted according to EPA guideline OPPTS 830.6316 to determine explosiveness of test substance. The procedure for determining impact explodability is based on ASTM D2540, Standard Test Method for Explodability. No positive tests were seen at 8", 15" or 20.25" in the impact explodability test; the test substance was therefore considered to be insensitive to impact explodability

Description of key information

EU Method A.14; OPPTS 830.6316

Key value for chemical safety assessment

Explosiveness:
non explosive

Additional information

Justification for classification or non-classification

The test substance was subjected to thermal, mechanical, and impact sensitivity tests to determine its explosive properties. All the tests were negative and the test substance is therefore considered non-explosive.
