Chlorinated hydrocarbons with varying chlorine content, including chlorinated naphthalenes, ranging in viscosity from a low viscosity oil to hard microcrystalline waxes.
Halogenated aliphatic compounds, such as HALOWAX 1001, are moderately or very reactive. Reactivity generally decreases with increased degree of substitution of halogen for hydrogen atoms. Materials in this group may be incompatible with strong oxidizing and reducing agents. Also, they may be incompatible with many amines, nitrides, azo/diazo compounds, alkali metals, and epoxides. HALOWAX 1001 can react vigorously with oxidizing materials.
