Any other information on results incl. tables
Termal sensitivity (Effect of a FLAME):
Test with the 6.0 mm diameter orifice plate on Escin sample are described below:
- widening of the flame from around 36 seconds
- culmination phase from around 146 seconds with intense flame, white smokes and fire rain
- end of the culmination phase at around 202 seconds
- end of the observations after around 600 seconds
Tests with the 2.0 mm diameter orifice plate on the Escin sample gave the same results described above except for a more intense flame.
No one of the six test performed (three with the 6.0 mm orifice plate and three with the 2.0 orifice plate) produced the fragmentation of the steel tube containing the Escin sample.
Mechanical sensitivity (Shock)
Explosions did not occur (bursting into flame and/or a report is equivalent to explosion) in anyone of the six test performed with the impact energy of 40 J on a sample of escin sample.
Then the sample of Escin resulted not sensitive to shocking.
Mechanical sensibility (Friction)
Explosions did not pccur (crepitation and/or a report or bursting into flame are equivalent to explosion) in anyone of the six tests performed with with a loading of 360 N on a sample of escin. Then the sample of Escin resulted not sensitive to friction.
