Moisture may cause hydrolysis or other forms of decompo sition; forming a strong acid. Temperatures above 250℃ can cause decomposition. Methyl ester: Esters react with
acids to liberate heat along with alcohols and acids. Strong
oxidizing acids may cause a vigorous reaction that is suffi ciently exothermic to ignite the reaction products. Heat is
also generated by the interaction of esters with caustic solu tions. Flammable hydrogen is generated by mixing esters
with alkali metals and hydrides.
Containers must be disposed
of properly by following package label directions or by
contacting your local or federal environmental control
agency, or by contacting your regional EPA office.
Dissolve or mix the material with a combustible solvent
