Applicant's summary and conclusion

Conclusions:
The test substance is not considered to have explosive properties.
Executive summary:

The test substance was subjected to explosive properties testing according to the guideline EC Test A14. In the Fallhammer test no reaction was observed at 40 J. In the friction test no reaction was observed at 360 N. In the Koenen test no explosion was observed with the 6 mm or 2 mm orifice plates.


Based on these tests, the test substance is not considered to have explosive properties.
