Description of key information
A Koenen test apparatus was used for determination of sensitivity to heat (flame), a fall hammer for determination of sensitivity to shock and a friction test apparatus for determination of sensitivity to friction.
All results were considered to be negative.
The test substance is not explosive.
Key value for chemical safety assessment
- Explosiveness:
- non explosive
Additional information
Justification for classification or non-classification
Following testing all results were considered to be negative. Therefore test substance is considered not to be explosive.
