Methyltetrahydrofuran Chemische Eigenschaften,Einsatz,Produktion Methoden
Allgemeine Beschreibung
A colorless liquid with an ether-like odor. Less dense than water. Flash point 12°F. Vapors heavier than air. Used to make other chemicals and as a solvent.
Air & Water Reaktionen
Highly flammable. Partially soluble in water. Oxidizes readily in air to form unstable peroxides that may explode spontaneously [Bretherick 1979. p.151-154, 164].
Reaktivität anzeigen
METHYL TETRAHYDROFURAN reacts violently with oxidants, causing fire and explosion hazards [Handling Chemicals Safely 1980. p. 891].
Health Hazard
Inhalation or contact with material may irritate or burn skin and eyes. Fire may produce irritating, corrosive and/or toxic gases. Vapors may cause dizziness or suffocation. Runoff from fire control may cause pollution.
Brandgefahr
HIGHLY FLAMMABLE: Will be easily ignited by heat, sparks or flames. Vapors may form explosive mixtures with air. Vapors may travel to source of ignition and flash back. Most vapors are heavier than air. They will spread along ground and collect in low or confined areas (sewers, basements, tanks). Vapor explosion hazard indoors, outdoors or in sewers. Runoff to sewer may create fire or explosion hazard. Containers may explode when heated. Many liquids are lighter than water.
