Hazard Predictions

Copper catalyzes the "disproportionation" of mixed chlorosilanes (SiCl2H2 and SiCl3H) to form highly flammable silane (SiH4) and water-reactive tetrachlorosilane (SiCl4). This reaction may require elevated temperatures (Simmler, W. 2000. Silicon Compounds, Inorganic. Ullmann's Encyclopedia of Industrial Chemistry. (Online)).

Vinyl trichlorosilane corrodes common metals in the presence of moisture and produces flammable hydrogen (Pohanish, Richard P. (2004). HazMat Data - For First Response, Transportation, Storage, and Security (2nd Edition). John Wiley & Sons).
