White powder.

Water soluble.

An organo-isocyanate. Isocyanates and thioisocyanates are incompatible with many classes of compounds, reacting exothermically to release toxic gases. Reactions with amines, aldehydes, alcohols, alkali metals, ketones, mercaptans, strong oxidizers, hydrides, phenols, and peroxides can cause vigorous releases of heat. Acids and bases initiate polymerization reactions in these materials. Some isocyanates react with water to form amines and liberate carbon dioxide.

Flash point data for 1,3,5-Tris(2-hydroxyethyl)cyanuric acid are not available, but 1,3,5-Tris(2-hydroxyethyl)cyanuric acid is probably combustible.
