The test item was tested as received. No further preliminary treatment such as drying or milling was performed.

Thermal stability

Two DSC measurements in a closed glass crucible with the test item showed an exothermal effect in the temperature range of 330 – 410 °C and 320 – 410 °C in the first and second measurement, respectively. The results of the DSC measurement are summarised in Table1. Table1: Thermal stability (DSC-measurement) Ident-No. Weight [mg] Final temperature [°C] Type of effect Temperature range [°C] Enthalpy [J/g] Crucible 34887 11.16 500 Exothermal 330 - 410 103 closed glass crucible 34893 11.03 500 Exothermal 320 - 410 76 closed glass crucible

The heat of decomposition was below 500 J/g. Therefore, the main test on explosive properties was not necessary.

Interpretation of results:

non explosive

Remarks:

Migrated information

Executive summary:

The test item has no explosive properties in the sense of the European Commission Regulation (EC) No. 440/2008, Method A.14. Explosive properties. The test item has no explosive properties in the sense of UN Recommendations on the Transport of Dangerous Goods, Manual of Test and Criteria, Appendix 6: Screening Procedures. Due to these results, the test item does not have to be classified as “explosive”, class 1 of the UN Recommendations on the Transport of Dangerous Goods, Manual of test and criteria.

Due to these results, the test item does not have to be classified as “explosive” according to chapter 2.1 of the GHS (CLP) regulations.

Description of key information

The explosiveness of the test item was determined according to the European Commission Regulations (EC) No. 440/2008,
A.14. Explosive properties and according to and OECD test guideline, OECD 113 Screening test for thermal stability and stability in air.
.

Key value for chemical safety assessment

Explosiveness:

non explosive

Justification for classification or non-classification

The test item had no explosive properties in the sense of the UN Recommendations on the Transport of Dangerous Goods, Manual of Test and Criteria, Appendix 6: Screening Procedures and in the sense of the EuropeanCommission Regulation (EC) No. 440/2008, Method A.14.
