Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:
GHS criteria not met
Conclusions:
The substance does not meet the criteria for classification as explosive.
Executive summary:

Testing for explosiveness was performed according to EU method A14 using the principles: BAM Fallhammer, BAM Friction and Koenen Tube. The results from the test were all negative.

BAM Fallhammer: The sample of Lipex Shea WM Shea Butter Oleyl Esters was observed to exhibit no reaction at 40 J.

BAM Friction: The sample of Lipex Shea WM Shea Butter Oleyl Esters was observed to exhibit no reaction at 360 N.

Koenen Tube: The sample did not exhibit an explosion.

The substance does not meet the criteria for classification as explosive.
