Hazard Predictions

KOH explodes on contact with ClO2 (Mellor, J.W. 1941. Mellor's Comprehensive Treatise on Inorganic and Theoretical Chemistry. Vol. 2, p. 289. Longmans, Green and Co Ltd.).

Explosive reactions with N2O4 can occur even at very low temperatures (Mellor, J.W. 1940. Mellor's Comprehensive Treatise on Inorganic and Theoretical Chemistry. Vol. 8, p. 541. Longmans, Green and Co Ltd.).

Addition of ammonia or other bases catalyzes decomposition of hydrogen peroxide, producing combustion-enhancing oxygen gas (Berthold, W. et al. 1980. Proceedings 3rd International Symposium on Loss Prevention Safety Prom. Chem. Ind., Basle, SSCI. pp. 1431-1434).

The reaction between NaOH and Br2 is potentially violent (MCA Case History 1636, Case Histories of Accidents in the Chemical Industry, Washington, Manufacturing Chemists' Association).

CrO3 oxidizes NH3 very exothermically (Pascal, P. 1959. Nouveau Traité de Chimie Minérale. Vol. 14, p. 215. Masson et Cie.).
