Any other information on results incl. tables
DSC Analysis
A broad exotherm was observed, with an onset temperature of 347°C and an energy of 2101 J/g. The thermogram is shown in Figure 25 (attached).
Theoretical Assessment
The test substance does not contain any groups that would be considered to give explosive properties. The calculated oxygen balance was -282.87%.
The energy of the DSC exotherm is > 500 J/g which could indicate possible explosive properties; however as the exotherm is broad, the oxygen balance is < -200% and the structural assessment of the test substance does not show groups that are explosive the test substance is not considered to show explosive properties.
Applicant's summary and conclusion
- Interpretation of results:
- other: ← Complete pick list based on CLP criteria, see below
- Conclusions:
- The test substance is not considered to have explosive properties, under the conditions of the test.
- Executive summary:
In this guideline (EU A.14 / UN test series 2 / UN Test series 3) study, [conducted with GLP certification], the test substance was not considered to have explosive properties.
The test substance is not considered an explosive under the criteria of the CLP regulation (1272/2008)
