Chemical Properties
crystalline solid
Uses
2',4-Bis(aminophenyl)methane is an analog of 4,4'-Methylenedianiline (M304180) and is used in the manufacturing of resin enamel coating materials for copper wires.
General Description
Leaflets.
Reactivity Profile
2,4'-DIAMINODIPHENYLMETHANE is readily oxidzable. Neutralizes acids in exothermic reactions to form salts plus water. May be incompatible with isocyanates, halogenated organics, peroxides, phenols (acidic), epoxides, anhydrides, and acid halides. Flammable gaseous hydrogen may be generated in combination with strong reducing agents, such as hydrides.
Health Hazard
ACUTE/CHRONIC HAZARDS: 2,4'-DIAMINODIPHENYLMETHANE emits toxic fumes when heated to decomposition. It may be toxic upon inhalation or skin contact.
Fire Hazard
Flash point data for 2,4'-DIAMINODIPHENYLMETHANE are not available. 2,4'-DIAMINODIPHENYLMETHANE is probably combustible.
Safety Profile
Suspected carcinogen.
Moderately toxic by subcutaneous route.
When heated to decomposition it emits
toxic fumes of NOx.
