Hazard Predictions
- Generates gas: Reaction liberates gaseous products and may cause pressurization
- Potentially hazardous: May be hazardous but unknown
Organic peroxides may be decomposed by the presence of inorganic oxidizing agents, which may yield toxic fumes of ethers and alcohols, flammable hydrocarbon gases along with combustion-enhancing O2 and inert CO2 gas (Predicted). 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. The generation of gases may be rather slow, however confinement may lead to dangerous conditions.
Potential Gas Byproducts
