TY - JOUR A1 - Wehrstedt, Klaus-Dieter A1 - Knorr, Annett A1 - Schuurman, P. T1 - The "Mini Closed Pressure Vessel Test (MCPVT)" as a screening or classification test for explosive properties of organic peroxides N2 - Tests according to the UN Recommendations on the Transport of Dangerous Goods for the determination of explosive properties of organic peroxides have been compared with screening criteria for explosivity based on measurements in a closed mini-autoclave (MCPVT). It will be shown that an additional screening test may be helpful but the information obtained from the UN tests are more important to characterise the specific properties of a substance under different conditions.
