Hazard Predictions

• Potentially hazardous: May be hazardous but unknown

Most ethers can form peroxides slowly if uninhibited and exposed to air. These peroxides may be able to initiate polymerization in the monomer if at high enough concentration or at elevated temperatures. Ether peroxide formation accident histories, safe handling, storage, and disposal can be found in the following papers: Jackson, H. L., at al., J. Chem. Educ., 1970, 47, A175; Davies, A. G., J. R. Inst. Chem., 1956, 80, 386-389; Dasler, W. A., et al., Ind. Eng. Chem.., 1946, 18, 52; Hazardous 365bet娱乐: Information and Disposal Guide, 1984, 87, 91, 98, 265.

Acrylates and acrylic acids are polymerizable materials and are typically inhibited with low ppm levels of antioxidants (inhibitors) to prevent premature polymerization chain reactions. Many of these inhibitors require dissolved oxygen to be effective. Inhibitor depletion is a function of time and temperature, with higher temperatures increasing depletion rates. These materials are known to be susceptible to destabilization due to low ppm levels of contaminants. Radical generating contaminants such as peroxides and azides are known to initiate monomer polymerization; however, the effects of seemingly benign materials are harder to predict. Therefore, extreme caution should be used in any contamination event. And the material should be presumed to be destabilized until testing and consultation with experts. Uncontrolled polymerization reactions can become adiabatic and lead to a serious runaway reaction with high temperatures and pressures. The general hazards of monomers are discussed in Frurip et al., Process Safety Progress (Vol. 14, No. 2) 1995.
