                                (1) Free Drop─A free drop through a distance of 30 feet (9.14 meters) onto a flat essentially unyielding horizontal surface, striking the surface in such a position as to suffer maximum damage.

                                (2) Percussion─Impact of the flat circular end of a 1 inch (2.54 centimeters) diameter steel rod weighing 3 pounds (1.36 kilograms), dropped through a distance of 40 inches (1.02 meters). The capsule or material shall be placed on a sheet of lead, of hardness number 3.5 to 4.5 on the Vickers scale, and not more than 1 inch (2.54 centimeters) thick, supported by a smooth essentially unyielding surface.

                                (3) Heating─Heating in air to a temperature of 1475̊ F (801.67̊ C) and remaining at that temperature for a period of 10 minutes.

                                (4) Immersion─Immersion for 24 hours in water at room temperature. The water shall be at pH 6-pH 8, with a maximum conductivity of 10 micromhos per centimeter.
