Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:
GHS criteria not met
Conclusions:
Non explosive when tested for relative sensitivity characters.
Executive summary:

The test was performed as stipulated in test procedure VDI 2263, Part 1. Before testing, the sample was dried to mass constancy. The particle size was determined microscopically.

The substance is not impact sensitive. Dust explosibility only occurs in concentrations equal/greater than 100 g/m³ (Ignition source : 10 kV-Induction spark).

Conclusion

The test substance is considered as non explosive.
