Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:

GHS criteria not met

Conclusions:

- UN-MTC part 1 type 1(b): Limiting diameter < 1 mm; no fragment observed
- UN-MTC part 1 type 3(a): No positif test between 30 to 50.1 J.
- UN-MTC part 1 type 3(b): No positif tests between 30 to 353 N.

Executive summary:

The sensitiveness to impact and friction; effects of heating and ignition under confinement of the test item has been assessed in accordance with the UN-MTC part1. The following results had been obtained:

- UN-MTC part 1 type 1(b): Limiting diameter < 1 mm; no fragment observed

- UN-MTC part 1 type 3(a): No positif test between 30 to 50.1 J.

- UN-MTC part 1 type 3(b): No positif tests between 30 to 353 N.

Considering the negative results, the test item should be considered as not explosive.
