Results
Two reactive samples, “RG_WN47LEB024_003coal” and “RG_WEST49LAU_009” were selected to use for the inhibited product test as described in Report GC17-05-22. These sample were used to test the 3 blends as described in Table 1.

Gassers was also added to each sample before adding the reactive sample and the weathering agent. The samples were tested over a period of 28 days and no temperature Isotherms were recorded (refer to Table 1 and Figure 1).

Conclusion:
Bulk explosive products S371, S330 and S364 inhibited any reactions with samples “RG_WN47LEB024_003coal” and “RG_WEST49LAU_009” when tested as per the AEISG Code of Practice for testing of inhibited products.
