Hazard Predictions
- Polymerization hazard: Polymerization reaction may become intense and may cause pressurization
Isocyanates can react exothermically with strong bases; the reaction is self-accelerating, and produces non-toxic CO2 gas, which can cause overpressurization (Richter, R.H., R.D. Priester, Jr. 2000. Isocyanates, Organic. In Kirk-Othmer Encyclopedia of Chemical Technology. John Wiley & Sons, Inc. (Online)). Nitrides, phosphides, carbides, and silicides are strong bases, so they will likely react this way.
