Hazard Predictions

• Explosive: Reaction products may be explosive or sensitive to shock or friction

Metal salts may act to heighten sensitivity of nitro-organics that are prone to be explosive. This is particularly true for the "dry" material. May increase the likelihood of shock or friction initiated explosion. Caution should be used before proceeding. Further research of comparable examples in the literature or very small scale, carefully controlled experiments may be needed to fully assess compatibility.

Mixtures of nitromethane and heavy metal oxides, such as those of silver, lead, and mercury, can lead to violent decompositions and should be avoided. Other metal oxides may react similarly (Markofsky, S. B. 2000. Nitro Compounds, Aliphatic. Ullmann's Encyclopedia of Industrial Chemistry. (Online)).

Chloride ion can make ammonium nitrate more sensitive to detonation. Other nitro compounds may react similarly (Weston, C. W., Papcun, J. R. and Dery, M. 2003. Ammonium Compounds. Kirk-Othmer Encyclopedia of Chemical Technology. (Online)).
