Hazard Predictions

No evidence was found for hazardous interactions between non-redox-active inorganic compounds and halogenated organics at ambient temperatures. However, some reactions can occur at elevated temperatures:

Aluminum oxide (alumina) is chlorinated exothermically above 200 C on contact with halocarbon vapors, producing hydrogen chloride, phosgene, and possibly other products (Urben, P.G. 1995. Bretherick's Handbook of Reactive Chemical Hazards, 5th Edition. Oxford: Butterworth-Heinemann. Vol. 1, pp. 52).

Mixtures of chlorinated rubber (polychloroprene) and some metal oxides (zinc oxide, antimony oxide, lead oxide) react violently when heated to about 216 C (Urben, P.G. 1995. Bretherick's Handbook of Reactive Chemical Hazards, 5th Edition. Oxford: Butterworth-Heinemann. Vol. 2, pp. 67).
