Additional information

Acid Blue 193 decomposes below 500 °C, with an energy lower than 500 J/g.

Justification for classification or non-classification

According to the CLP Regulation (EC) No 1272/2008, 2.1.4.2. Screening procedure section, the screening procedure is aimed at identifying the presence of such reactive groups and the potential for rapid energy release. If the screening procedure identifies the substance or mixture to be a potential explosive, the acceptance procedure (section 10.3 of the UN Recommendations on the Transport of Dangerous Goods, Manual of Tests and Criteria) has to be performed.

Screening procedure failed to evidence any reason for concern for Acid Blue 193, based on a decomposition enthalpy lower than 500 J/g.

In conclusion, the substance can be considered as non explosive, according to the CLP Regulation (EC) No 1272/2008.
