Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

Description of key information
The test item was determined to be non-explosive because negative results were obtained with the BAM Fallhammer and Koenen Tube tests (EU Method A.14).
Key value for chemical safety assessment
- Explosiveness:
- non explosive
Additional information
BAM fallhammer test
GUIDELINE
The investigation was conducted in accordance with the procedure described in EU Regulation (EC) 440/2008, Annex Part A test A.14 to measure the sensitiveness of substances to impact.
METHODS
The sample was placed in the impact device and the 10 kg weight dropped from a height of 40 cm which is equivalent to 40 J. If an "explosion" was observed, the impact energy was reduced to 7.5 J and further tests conducted.
RESULTS
The sample of test item was observed to exhibit no reaction at 40 J and the test result was therefore considered negative.
Koenen tube test
GUIDELINE
The test was conducted in accordance with the procedure described in EU Regulation (EC) 440/2008, Annex Part A test A.14.
METHODS
The substance was placed in a steel tube, closed by orifice plates with differing diameters of hole, to determine whether the substance is liable to explode under conditions of intense heat and defined confinement.
RESULTS
The sample did not exhibit an explosion during any of the tests and the test result was therefore considered negative.
Justification for classification or non-classification
Negative results were obtained from BAM fallhammer and Koenen tube tests and classification for explosive properties is not required under the criteria ofRegulation (EC) No. 1272/2008.
Information on Registered Substances comes from registration dossiers which have been assigned a registration number. The assignment of a registration number does however not guarantee that the information in the dossier is correct or that the dossier is compliant with Regulation (EC) No 1907/2006 (the REACH Regulation).
