Uses
IDA monomers were doped with silica and gold nanoparticles for the preparation of amorphous chalcogenide-AuNP nanocomposite. ,
General Description
Colorless liquid with a weak odor. Floats on water.
Reactivity Profile
ISODECYL ACRYLATE is an ester. Esters react with acids to liberate heat along with alcohols and acids. Strong oxidizing acids may cause a vigorous reaction that is sufficiently exothermic to ignite the reaction products. Heat is also generated by the interaction of esters with caustic solutions. Flammable hydrogen is generated by mixing esters with alkali metals and hydrides. Polymerizes readily in the presence of heat and light generating much heat; reacts with strong oxidants. REF [Handling Chemicals Safely, 1980. p. 235]. Reaction is not violent [USCG, 1999].
Health Hazard
Inhalation causes mild irritation of nose and throat. Eyes are mildly irritated by vapor, more severely by liquid. Prolonged contact of liquid with skin may cause irritation.
Fire Hazard
Behavior in Fire: May polymerize to gummy solid. Reaction is not violent.
