SECTION V - REACTIVITY DATA
Unstable [ ] Conditions to Avoid: N/A
Stable [X]
Incompatibility (Materials to Avoid): Reacts with active metals like sodium
and potassium, amines (including additives), liquid fluorine and liquid
chlorine trifluoride. Caution should be used with aluminum and magnesium
under conditions of large shear forces such as those found in threaded
connections.
Hazardous Decomposition or By-products: The decomposition to toxic, nonÂsludge forming volatiles occurs rapidly at 325C, noticeably at 300C and in
lesser amounts at lower temperatures. Therefore, the maximum safe operatÂing temperature recommended is 200C and maximum short-term temperature
recommended is 260C in scrupulously clean systems.
Hazardous Polymerization [ ] May Occur [X] Will Not Occur
Conditions To Avoid: N/A
