Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.

The new ECHA CHEM database has been released by ECHA, and it now contains all REACH registration data. There are more details on the transition of ECHA's published data to ECHA CHEM here.

Adequacy of study:
key study
Study period:
1989
Reliability:
2 (reliable with restrictions)
Rationale for reliability incl. deficiencies:
guideline study without detailed documentation
Qualifier:
equivalent or similar to guideline
Guideline:
EPA OPPTS 830.6316 (Explodability)
Version / remarks:
Guideline D-63-16 was followed as only available guideline at time of report
GLP compliance:

Specific details on test material used for the study:
2kg standard JANAF Drop Weight was dropped 10 times at a height of 35 inches to determine sensitivity of substance to impact.
Key result
Parameter:
sensitiveness to impact: impact energy (J)
Remarks on result:
negative (not further specified)

In ten replicate trials, the sample showed no reaction in response to the 2 kg weight from a drop height of 35 inches. This indicated a marked insensitivity toward impact initiation. A visual examination of the sample recovered after the experiments indicated no change in phase or colour.

Conclusions:
No impact sensitivity from substance surface indicated. MGK 264 may therefore be considered to be negative in this test and does not have explosive properties.

Description of key information

There was a marked insensitivity toward impact initiation, therefore MGK 264 is negative in this test and does not have explosive properties.

Key value for chemical safety assessment

Explosiveness:
non explosive

Additional information

insensitivity toward impact initiation established.
