Results and discussion
- Results:
- Stability and reactivity: Combustible when exposed to heat or flame. Reacts violently with mineral acids (e.g. chlorosulfonic acid, oleum, sulfuric acid), amines or inorganic bases. Reacts with water or steam to produce toxic and flammable vapors. When heated to decomposion or on contact with acid or acid fumes it emits highly toxic fumes of cyanide.
Applicant's summary and conclusion
Information on Registered Substances comes from registration dossiers which have been assigned a registration number. The assignment of a registration number does however not guarantee that the information in the dossier is correct or that the dossier is compliant with Regulation (EC) No 1907/2006 (the REACH Regulation). This information has not been reviewed or verified by the Agency or any other authority. The content is subject to change without prior notice.
