Results and discussion

Small-scale preliminary tests
Parameter:
other: Explosive (not specified)
Remarks:
migrated information
Remarks on result:
negative (not further specified)

Any other information on results incl. tables

Time-pressure-test: None of the three tests reached a pressure of 2070 kPa. Therefore the result has to be evaluated as negative.

Koenen-test: The tube remained unchanged. The results have to be evaluated as negative.

Trauzl-test (performed and evaluated by the BAM, sign 2.2-114/15): The increased volume was 5 ml and 6 ml per 10 g of sample. Due to the fact that the volume expansion of the cavity in the lead block was less than 10 ml per 10 g sample the results have to be evaluated as negative.

Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:
non explosive
Remarks:
Migrated information
Conclusions:
Due to the results presented in this report from the UN-tests 1(b) (effect of heating under confinement; Koenen-test), 1(c) (effect of ignition under confinement; Time-pressure-test) and F.3 (Trauzl-test; substitute test for 1(a) (propagation of detonation) of the „UN Recommendations on Transport of Dangerous Goods - Manual of Test and Criteria“ it can be concluded that the substance is not explosive.
