Any other information on results incl. tables

The test item consists primarely of elemental selenium with some Cu2Se, Ag, AgCl, Ag2Se, CuS, CuO. Fe and Ni are also present probably mixed into the CuO or CuS. SiO2 is also present as an impurity.

The composition of the test item was assessed for chemical groups that imply explosive properties. Examples of such groups are C-C unsaturated, C-metal, N-metal, contigous oxygen atoms, contigous nitrogen atoms, N-halogens, O-halogens, N-O.

There are no chemical groups within the test item that would imply explosive properties.

Based on the composition of the test item the result of the explosive properties was predicted negative. Therefore the classification procedure for class 1 explosives need not be applied.

Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:
non explosive
Remarks:
Migrated information
Conclusions:
Based on the composition of the test item the result of the explosive properties was predicted negative. Therefore the classification procedure for class 1 explosives need not be applied.
Executive summary:

Predicted negative in accordance with appendix 6, of the United Nations Recommendations on the Transport of Dangerous goods, Manual of tests and criteria, 5th revised edition, 2009. Therefore the classification procedure for class 1 explosives need not be applied.
