The following laboratory equipment was used for the study on Mechanical Sensitivity (Friction):

- Friction apparatus: Reichel & Partner GmbH, Rheinzabern, as described in the European Commission Regulation (EC) No. 440/2008, method A.14.

- Weight: 10 kg

- Sieve mesh size 500 μm, No. S/N 10031419

The following laboratory equipment was used for the study on Mechanical Sensitivity (Shock):

- Falling mass apparatus: Julius Peters KG, Berlin, as described in the European Commission Regulation (EC) No. 440/2008 method A.14.

- Drop hammer weight: 10 kg (Material: Steel), Drop height: 0.4 m

- Sieve mesh size 500 μm, No. S/N 10031419

The following laboratory equipment was used for the study on Thermal Sensitivity:

-A steel tube made from deep drawn sheet by a drawing process. It has an internal diameter of 24 mm, a length of 75 mm and a wall thickness of 0.5 mm. At the open end the tube is provided with a flange for closing the tube. The tube is provided with a pressure-resistant, circular nozzle plate with a central hole and this plate is firmly secured to the tube with the aid of a two-part screw joint (nut and cap-nut). The nozzle plate is 6 mm thick and made from heat-resistant chromium steel. Nozzles plates with diameter of opening (2 mm and 6 mm) are available.

- Heating provided by propane, taken from an industrial cylinder, fitted with a pressure regulator, through a meter distributed to four burners. The burners are located around the test chamber as shown in the European Commission Regulation (EC) No. 440/2008, method A.14. figure 2 (Apparatus according to Koenen). The heating velocities of the burners were adjusted to a heating rate of 185 – 215 K/min in the temperature range 135 to 285 °C. The control equipment for the flow rate of propane is provided by Brooks.

- Balance: Mettler PG5002
