UN22363-Chloro-4-methylphenyl isocyanate,
liquid, Hazard Class: 6.1; Labels: 6.1-Poisonous materials.
May form explosive mixture with air.
Isocyanates are highly flammable and reactive with many
compounds, even with themselves. Incompatible with oxidizers (chlorates, nitrates, peroxides, permanganates, perchlorates, chlorine, bromine, fluorine, etc.); contact may
cause fires or explosions. Reaction with moist air, water or
alcohols may form amines and insoluble polyureas and
react exothermically, releasing toxic, corrosive, or flammable gases, including carbon dioxide; and, at the same time,
may generate a violent release of heat increasing the concentration of fumes in the air. Incompatible with amines,
aldehydes, alkali metals, ammonia, carboxylic acids, caprolactum, alkaline materials, glycols, ketones, mercaptans,
hydrides, organotin catalysts, phenols, strong acids, strong
bases, strong reducing agents such as hydrides, urethanes,
ureas. Elevated temperatures or contact with acids, bases,
tertiary amines, and acyl-chlorides may cause explosive
polymerization. Attacks some plastics, rubber, and coatings.
Contact with metals may evolve flammable hydrogen gas.
May accumulate static electrical charges, and may cause
ignition of its vapors. Do not store in temperatures above
30C/86F.
