SECTION 10 STABILITY AND REACTIVITY
Reactivity
Stable under normal conditions of use.
Chemical stability
Stable under normal conditions of use.
Possibility of hazardous reactions
Stable under normal conditions of use.
Conditions to avoid
Avoid heat, sparks, open flames and other ignition sources.
Incompatible materials
Strong oxidising agents.
Hazardous decomposition products
Thermal decomposition is highly dependent on conditions. A complex mixture of airborne solids, liquids,
gases, including carbon monoxide, carbon dioxide and other organic compounds will be evolved when this
material undergoes combustion or thermal or oxidative degradation.
