Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:

GHS criteria not met

Executive summary:

The explosive properties were predicted using Method A14 of Commission Directive 92/69/EEC (which constitutes Annex V of Council Directive 67/548/EEC).

The structures of the components of the test material were examined for groups that would imply that the test material could possess explosive properties.

There are no chemical groups that would imply explosive properties, therefore the result has been predicted negative.
