Hazard Predictions
- Generates gas: Reaction liberates gaseous products and may cause pressurization
- Generates heat: Exothermic reaction at ambient temperatures (releases heat)
Due to the highly reactive nature of both inorganic sulfides and other reducing agents, we cannot state with certainty that hazardous reactions between members of these groups will not occur. Powerful reducing agents may in fact react with less powerful reducing agents. 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.
Inorganic sulfides may liberate toxic and flammable H2S gas upon reduction by inorganic reducing agents (Predicted).
Potential Gas Byproducts
