Oxidizing Solids Classification Test O.1/O.3
APPLICATION
Oxidizing properties of solid compounds are investigated and determined for its classification for transportation and handling. Oxidizing properties are related to Division 5.1 of UN Recommendations on the Transport of Dangerous Goods.
PRINCIPLE
Tested sample is mixed with standard fuel and heated by standard energy supply. Burning time of the mixture is recorded. Obtained test time is compared with burning times of calibration mixtures. Standard oxidizing substance and fuel are used in different ratios to prepare calibration mixtures. Packing group classification of the tested sample is presented as a test result.
COMPLIANCE
UN Recommendations on the Transport of Dangerous Goods (34.4.1/34.4.3)
