Summary
- Explosive: Reaction products may be explosive or sensitive to shock or friction
- Generates heat: Exothermic reaction at ambient temperatures (releases heat)
- Intense or explosive reaction: Reaction may be particularly intense, violent, or explosive
- Polymerization hazard: Polymerization reaction may become intense and may cause pressurization

Hazard Predictions
- Explosive: Reaction products may be explosive or sensitive to shock or friction
- Generates heat: Exothermic reaction at ambient temperatures (releases heat)
- Intense or explosive reaction: Reaction may be particularly intense, violent, or explosive
- Polymerization hazard: Polymerization reaction may become intense and may cause pressurization
The combination of epoxides and organic peroxides may lead to the initiation of polymerization in the epoxides, generating heat and pressurizing the vessel (Predicted). Many peroxide molecules are shock and heat sensitive, however, this combination of molecules may lead to further sensitization of the peroxide (Predicted).
