BS EN 13938-2:2025

This standard BS EN 13938-2:2025 Explosives for civil uses. Propellants and rocket propellants is classified in these ICS categories:

• 71.100.30 Explosives. Pyrotechnics and fireworks

This document specifies a method for the determination of resistance to electrostatic energy for propellants containing a mass fraction of at least 5 % of particles which pass through a 1 mm sieve. This method does not apply to black powder. NOTE If the mass fraction of particles smaller than 1 mm size is less than 5 % the propellant is considered to be insensitive to electrostatic energy and this test is not performed.
