Materials and methods

Principles of method if other than guideline:

Test methods for the determination of explosive properties (EC Method A.14) involve
measuring the effect of three stimuli; shock, heat and friction. The test substance is
considered to possess explosive properties if a positive result is obtained in any one of these
tests.
According to the United Nations Committee of Experts on the Transport of Dangerous Goods
explosive properties are associated with the presence of certain chemical groups in a
molecule which can react to produce a very rapid increase in temperature or pressure. Thus,
it is possible to examine the chemical structure of a substance and ascertain whether or not
there are any groups present that are associated with explosive properties. For this purpose a
list of screening procedures has been published in Appendix 6 of the United Nations
‘Recommendations on the Transport of Dangerous Goods, Manual of Tests and Criteria’.
The initial assessment of explosive properties is made by examining the chemical structures
of the components with a list of functional groups that may indicate explosive properties in
organic materials.
