Thermal test
| T1 (seconds) | T2 (seconds) | Observations | |
| 6 mm orifice | |||
| Test 1 | No flame | 300 | Tube recovered intact |
| Test 2 | No flame | 300 | Tube recovered intact |
| Test 3 | No flame | 300 | Tube recovered intact |

where:
T1 = time from start of test to flame from nozzle
T2 = time from start of test to explosion, or end of test (300 seconds)
Shock test
| Replicate | 1 | 2 | 3 | 4 | 5 | 6 |
| Result | N | N | N | N | N | N |
where
N = no evidence of ignition, explosion or decomposition
Friction test
| Replicate | 1 | 2 | 3 | 4 | 5 | 6 |

where
N = no evidence of ignition or explosion. A dark mark was noted on the plate after testing, indicating that decomposition had occurred.
Description of key information
Fe3P was found not to be explosive.
Key value for chemical safety assessment
- Explosiveness:
- non explosive
Additional information
An explosiveness determination was performed as part of a package of Physicochemical testing (Huntingdon Life Sciences, 2011, Study FGE0002). The explosiveness was determined according to EU Method A.14, and the study was conducted in compliance with GLP.
Fe3P was found not to be explosive.
Justification for classification or non-classification
No functional groups associated with explosive properties are present within Fe3P; on this basis it is concluded that classification as "explosive" is not appropriate. This conclusion applies to the following Hazards:
Explosive solids
Explosive liquids.
