The limiting impact energy, characterizing the impact sensitivity of the test item, is defined as the lowest impact energy at which explosion occurs in any of six trials. Based on the above test series according to UN Test Series 3, the limiting impact energy ofLeuco Sulfur Blue 11is higher than 50 J.


Negative result was obtained in all of the six shock sensitivity tests performed at 40 J impact energy. ThereforeLeuco Sulfur Blue 11does not present a danger of explosion in the sense of the EC A.14 directive.

Interpretation of results:
GHS criteria not met
Conclusions:
Leuco Sulfur Blue 11 proved to be insensitive to shock, explosion was not observed. Limiting impact energy (UN Test Series 3): > 50 J. Leuco Sulfur Blue 11 presents no danger of explosion in the sense of the EC A.14 directive.
Executive summary:

The purpose of this study was to determine whether Leuco Sulfur Blue 11 presents a danger of explosion when submitted to effect of shock. Test item was subjected to drop-weight impact using the BAM Fallhammer apparatus.

Leuco Sulfur Blue 11 proved to be insensitive to shock, explosion was not observed. Limiting impact energy (UN Test Series 3): > 50 J. Leuco Sulfur Blue 11 presents no danger of explosion in the sense of the EC A.14 directive.

 

 

Description of key information

Limiting impact energy (UN Test Series 3): > 50 J. Leuco Sulfur Blue 11 presents no danger of explosion in the sense of the EC A.14 directive.

Additional information

Justification for classification or non-classification

Classification, Labelling, and Packaging Regulation (EC) No 1272/2008

The available experimental test data are reliable and suitable for classification purposes under Regulation (EC) No 1272/2008. Based on available data, the test item is not classified for explosiveness according to Regulation (EC) No 1272/2008 (CLP), as amended for the twelfth time in Regulation (EU) No 2019/52.
