Results and discussion

Small-scale preliminary tests
Parameter:
other: The oxygen balance of the test substance was –153%, which is higher than –200%. The test substance does not contain chemical groups which are associated with explosive properties.
Remarks on result:
other:
Remarks:
The oxygen balance of the test substance was –153%, which is higher than –200%. The value is obtained due to the presence of an acid group and hydrochloric acid in the molecular structure of the test substance. These types of groups are not chemically instable or highly energetic. Based on this the test substance is considered to pose no risk for explodability. A test substance is considered explosive when it can react to produce very rapid increases in temperature or pressure. The test substance does not contain chemical groups which are associated with explosive properties.The molecular structures of impurities at <1% were not taken into account. In conclusion, L-Lysine Monohydrochloride has no explosive properties.

Any other information on results incl. tables

A test substance is considered explosive when it can react to produce very rapid increases in temperature or pressure.

The test substance does not contain chemical groups which are associated with explosive properties.The molecular structures of impurities at <1% were not taken into account.

The oxygen balance of the test substance was –153%, which is higher than –200%.
