Reference
- Thermal Sensitivity
The samples burned with a yellow flame. In each case, the tubes were recovered intact.
- Mechanical Sensitivity (Shock)
There was no evidence of an explosion on any occasion.
- Mechanical Sensitivity (Friction)
There was no sign of ignition or explosion but slight decomposition indicated by dark mark on porcelain plate.
Description of key information
Non explosive, EU Method A.14, Comb (2003)
Key value for chemical safety assessment
- Explosiveness:
- non explosive
Additional information
The explosive properties of the test material were investigated under GLP conditions and in accordance with the standardised guideline EU Method A.14. The study was assigned a reliability score of 1 in line with the criteria of Klimisch et al. (1997).
The test material was concluded to not possess any explosive properties.
Justification for classification or non-classification
In accordance with the criteria for classification as defined in Annex I, Regulation (EC) No. 1272/2008, the substance does not require classification with respect to explosivity.
In accordance with the criteria for classification as defined in Annex VI, Directive 67/548/EEC (DSD), the substance does not require classification with respect to explosivity.
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).
