α-D-glucose pentaacetate

Explosiveness

Administrative data

Endpoint:

explosive properties of explosives

Data waiving:

study scientifically not necessary / other information available

Justification for data waiving:

the study does not need to be conducted because there are no chemical groups present in the molecule which are associated with explosive properties

Justification for type of information:

The decomposition energy of the substance is less than 500J/g as determined by DSC-Measurement. See further information in the cross-ref.

Test conducted in closed glass crucibles:

In the temperature range of 80 – 120 °C an endothermic effect can be observed. In the temperature range of 260 – 350 °C an exothermic effect was detected, with a decomposition energy of <-210 J/g. Due to the fact that a pressure rise occurred at 350 °C, the exothermic effect was cut at 350 °C.

Test conducted in closed gold plated stainless steel crucibles:

In the temperature range of 80 - 120 °C an endothermic effect can be observed. In the temperature range of 270 - 390 °C an exothermic effect was detected, with a decomposition energy of -280 J/g.

Conclusions:

The test item Alpha-D-glucose pentaacetate (CAS no. 604-68-2) showed an exothermic effect in the temperature range of 260 – 390 °C with a maximum decomposition energy of -280 J/g.

Executive summary:

The test item Alpha-D-glucose pentaacetate (CAS no.604-68-2) showed an exothermic effect in the temperature range of 260 – 390 °C with a maximum decomposition energy of -280 J/g.
