Abstract

Abstract A self-accelerating decomposition temperature ( T SADT is the minimum ambient air temperature at which a reactive material of specified stability decomposes in a specified commercial package in a period of 7 days or less. Values for T SADT are determined to decide whether a substance should be subject to temperature control during transport. Values of T SADT calculated using the Accelerating Rate Calorimeter (ARC) and techniques suggested by Wilberforce and the authors are compared to those measured by oven stability testing. The methodology and the advantages of using the ARC to obtain T SADT values are discussed.
