Hazard Information | Back Directory | [General Description]
Clear colorless liquid. | [Reactivity Profile]
Epoxides, such as 1,2-EPOXYDODECANE(2855-19-8), are highly reactive. They polymerize in the presence of catalysts or when heated. These polymerization reactions can be violent. Compounds in this group react with acids, bases, and oxidizing and reducing agents. They react, possibly violently with water in the presence of acid and other catalysts. This chemical is incompatible with strong oxidizers, strong acids and strong bases. 1,2-EPOXYDODECANE(2855-19-8) is also incompatible with peroxides. | [Air & Water Reactions]
Highly flammable. Sensitive to moisture. May decompose on exposure to moist air. Insoluble in water. | [Fire Hazard]
This chemical is combustible. | [Chemical Properties]
clear colorless liquid | [Uses]
In the production of epoxy resins, 1,2-Epoxydodecane is used as a reactive diluent and cross-linking agent which can help to improve the performance and versatility of these industrial materials. In the production of emulsions, foams, and dispersants, 1,2-Epoxydodecane can be used as a surfactant. In pharmaceutical industry, 1,2-Epoxydodecane can be used as a solvent in the production of certain pharmaceuticals, like pyrazolones. In the synthesis of hydroxyurea, 1,2-epoxydodecane is used as an intermediate in the production of a key starting material.
