Thermal stability


Two DSC measurements in closed glass crucibles with the test item showed an endothermal effect in the temperature ranges of 95 – 135 °C and three exothermal effects in the temperature ranges of 130 - 200 °C, 240 - 325 °C and 320 – 360 °C with a maximum energy release of 411 J/g. Above 360 °C the course of the baseline indicated a build-up of pressure.

Explosive properties


The heat of decomposition in the DCS measurements was below 500 J/g. Furthermore the test item contained no functional groups linked to explosive properties. Therefore, the main test on explosive properties was not necessary.

Interpretation of results:
GHS criteria not met
Conclusions:
The test item is not explosive.
Executive summary:

The test item had no explosive properties in the sense of the European Commission Regulation (EC) No. 440/2008, Method A.14. The heat of decomposition in the DSC measurements was below 500 J/g. Therefore, the main test on explosive properties was not necessary.

Description of key information

The test item had no explosive properties in the sense of the European Commission Regulation (EC) No. 440/2008, Method A. 14.

Key value for chemical safety assessment

Explosiveness:
non explosive

Additional information

Justification for classification or non-classification

Based on the result, the substance is not considered to be classified for explosiveness according to Classification, Labelling, and Packaging Regulation (EC) No 1272/2008.
