- Conclusions:
- Platinum diamminedinitrite, dry, is readily ignitable, sensitive to impact, can be ignited by impacted friction and deflagrates in a similar manner to gunpowder in the time/pressure apparatus, that is, in a confined condition. The energy released in the ballistic mortar was of the same order as gunpowder. Water-wetting, to the extent of about 10% weight-for-weight, appeared to render the salt less readily ignitable to sparks from a Bickford Fuse, but did not slow down the deflagration rate, once ignition had commenced, beyond that of typical deflagrating explosives.
- Executive summary:
This is a guideline study and is considered suitable for use as the key study for this endpoint. Platinum diamminedinitrite exhibits explosive properties both when dry and when wetted with up to 10% water.

Additional information
The study by Health and Safety Executive Research and Laboratory Services (1982) is a guideline study and is considered suitable for use as the key study for this endpoint. Diammineplatinum nitrite exhibits explosive properties both when dry and when wetted with up to 10% water.
The Degussa (1985) study predates GLP and the study has limitations in design or reporting but is considered adequate for use as supporting study. Diammineplatinum (II) was determined to be explosive in the dry test but was considered to be not mechanically sensitive in the water-moistened with 20%-weighted test.
Heraeus & Heraeus (2007) is non-GLP but is considered suitable for use as a supporting study for this endpoint. In thermal stability and impact sensitivity tests with differential thermal analysis, cis-Diaminndinitroplatin (II) exhibited exothermic decomposition under the conditions of the screening DTA (3 K/min). This was two stage decomposition starting from 174°C. In an additionally accomplished long term DTA (0.05 K/min) the beginning of the decomposition was 81°C. Using the BAM Fallhammertest cis-Diaminndinitroplatin (II) was not sensitive to impact at an energy less than or equal to 9 J.
Due to the explosive properties of the solid substance, it is handled only in solution.
