Final Result
The test item has no danger of explosion according to the explosive properties in the sense of the consolidated version of Guideline 67/548/EEC Annex V, A.14.
Screening Result
Thermal stability was evaluated using two DSC-measurements in closed glass crucibles which showed two exothermal effects in the temperature range 220 – 320 C and 360 – 445 C, with an overall decomposition energy of 590 J/g, and 629 J/g respectively. Since the heat of decomposition was above 500 J/g, the test on explosion properties was performed.
Individual Results
Mechanical sensitivity (friction): No explosion was observed within 6 tests using a pinload with 360 N.
Mechanical sensitivity (shock):
No explosion within 6 tests using a mass of 10 kg falling from a height 0.4 m was observed.
Thermal sensitivity:
Three tests were performed with a circular nozzle plate with a hole of 2 mm diameter.

The test on thermal sensitivity carried out with a nozzle with a diameter of 2.0 mm showed no explosion. Compared to the nozzle with a diameter of 6.0 mm the venting area of the nozzle with 2.0 mm is smaller by an order of magnitude. Additionally the physical state of the test substance (pure solid) and the chemical structure excludes the enrichment of high energy components caused by evaporation of volatile solvents. Due to these facts an explosion with a nozzle width of 6.0 mm is excluded.
Description of key information
The test item is not explosive according to EU Method A.14. There are no chemical groups associated with explosive properties present in the molecule.
Key value for chemical safety assessment
- Explosiveness:
- non explosive
Additional information
Justification for classification or non-classification
The available data on explosive properties of the test substance do not meet the criteria for classification according to Regulation (EC) 1272/2008, and are therefore conclusive but not sufficient for classification. Based on chemical structure and according to EU Method A.14, the substance is not explosive.
