Executive summary:

The study was performed to determine the explosive properties of the test substance. The study was conducted in accordance with 92/69/EEC Testing Guideline A.14 'determination of explosive properties '. The test on thermal sensitivity showed that the test substance did not explode under conditions of intense heat. The test on mechanical sensitivity showed that the test substance did not explode when it is subject to a shock from mass dropped (drop energy 40 J). Therefore, the test substance is not explosive.
