Stability and Reactivity

Chemical stability, hazardous reactions, and incompatible materials

Stability

The product is chemically stable under standard ambient conditions (room temperature).

Reactivity

Forms explosive mixtures with air on intense heating. A range from approx. 15 Kelvin below the flash point is to be rated as critical. The following applies in general to flammable organic substances and mixtures: in correspondingly fine distribution, when whirled up a dust explosion potential may generally be assumed.

Hazardous reactions

No data available

Avoid

Strong heating.

Incompatible

Strong oxidizing agents
