Acetyl benzoyl peroxide Chemical Properties,Uses,Production
Chemical Properties
Acetyl benzoyl peroxide is a white crystalline solid, forming needles.
Uses
Germicide; in bleaching of flour and food oils.
General Description
A solution containing less than 40% by mass of the white crystalline solid in a nonvolatile solvent. Dilution moderates reactivity of the pure solvent. Irritating to the skin, eyes and mucous membranes.
Air & Water Reactions
Decomposed by water [Hawley].
Reactivity Profile
Acetyl benzoyl peroxide SOLUTION [<= 40% PEROXIDE] is a powerful oxidizing agent. Reacts with reducing agents (including many common organic materials). These reactions may lead to ignition. Decomposes when heated.
Safety Profile
Poison by inhalation and ingestion. Severe irritant. A powerful oxidzing agent that is corrosive to the skin and mucous membranes. See also PEROXIDES, ORGANIC. Dangerous; shock or heat will cause detonation with evolution of toxic fumes; will react with water or steam to produce heat; can react vigorously with reducing materials. Flammable by spontaneous chemical reaction. To fight fire, use Con or dry chemical. When heated to decomposition it emits acrid smoke and fumes.
Potential Exposure
Used in disinfectants, to bleach flour; and in medications.
Shipping
UN3105 Organic peroxide type D, liquid, Hazard Class: 5.2; Labels: 5.2-Organic peroxide, Technical Name Required
Incompatibilities
Acetyl benzoyl peroxide is an organic peroxide which can detonate if shocked, heated, or on contact with contaminants. A powerful oxidizer. Violent reaction with many compounds, including reducing agents; chemically active metals; combustible materials, strong acids, alkaline earth sulfides, aluminum carbides, aluminum, amines, calcium sulfide, carbides, chlorine trifluoride, glycerin, hydrides, hydrochloric acid, hydrogen peroxide, hydrogen sulfide, hydroxylamine, magnesium, metal powders, metal sulfides, molybdenum, phenylhydrazine, phosphorous red/friction, phosphorous trichloride, silicon, sulfides, sulfur, sulfur dioxide, sulfur/friction, sulfuric acid, tungsten, hydrogen trisulfide. Avoid contact with moisture, water, steam, sources of ignition, combustible materials. Not compatible with strong bases; reducing materials; other oxidizers
