Hazard Predictions

- Generates heat: Exothermic reaction at ambient temperatures (releases heat)
- Intense or explosive reaction: Reaction may be particularly intense, violent, or explosive
The combination of inorganic nitrates with strong reducing agents may result in exothermic oxidation-reduction reactions. It may form sensitive explosive mixtures. 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.
