SCARLET RN 1165 was evaluated as non-explosive.
Executive summary:

The determination of the Explosive Properties of Scarlet RN 1165 was performed in accordance with the EC Council Directive 92/69/EEC, Annex V, Part A, Methods for the determination of physico-chemical properties, A. 14: "Explosive Properties", Official Journal of the European Communities, No. L 383 N87, December 29,1992.

Thermal sensitivity (effect of a flame)

The test result was regarded as negative, since no explosion (fragmentation of the tube into three or more pieces) occurred in any of the three individual tests using 6.0 mm or 2.0 mm diameter orifice plates.

Mechanical sensitivity (shock)

The test result was regarded as negative, since no explosion (bursting into flame and/or a report is equivalent to explosion) occurred in any of the six individual tests using a drop weight of 10 kg from a drop height of 0.40 m (40 J) in the specified falling hammer apparatus.

Mechanical sensitivity (friction)

The test result was regarded as negative, since no explosion ( crepitation and/or a report or bursting into flame are equivalent to explosion) occurred in any of the six individual tests using a 360 N loading in the specified friction tester.

The testing material did not explode under the effect of flame and was not sensitive to shock or friction. SCARLET RN 1165 was evaluated as non-explosive.
