General Description
Clear brown liquid.
Air & Water Reactions
Highly flammable. Insoluble in water.
Reactivity Profile
A halogenated 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.
Health Hazard
ACUTE/CHRONIC HAZARDS: 2,3-DIBROMOPROPYL METHACRYLATE has toxic and hazardous decomposition products. It is probably an irritant.
Fire Hazard
2,3-DIBROMOPROPYL METHACRYLATE is considered to be combustible.
