Applicant's summary and conclusion
- Interpretation of results:
- non explosive
- Remarks:
- Migrated information
- Conclusions:
- As the test item “n-Butyl lithium, 90 % in Hexane” was neither shock sensitive nor thermally sensitive it is not considered to present a danger of explosion according to the criteria of the EU classification scheme.
- Executive summary:
The explosive properties of “n-Butyl lithium, 90% in hexane” were determined according to EU test method A.14. The test item is neither shock sensitive nor thermally sensitive according to the criteria of EU method A.14. Therefore it is not considered to present a danger of explosion in the sense of the EU classification scheme. All sample preparations for testing had to be performed using inert gas atmosphere (excluding of air) because of the self ignition properties of the material. These special condition could be applied to this OECD-test, which allowed a meaningful determination of this endpoint for n-Butyl lithium 90% in hexane.
