ALLYL ETHYL ETHER Chemical Properties,Usage,Production

Chemical Properties

CLEAR COLOURLESS LIQUID

Chemical Properties

Allyl ethyl ether is an extremely flammable liquid.

Uses

Allyl ethyl ether is used as an intermediate to manufacture other chemicals.

General Description

A liquid. Flash point below 75°F. Insoluble in water and less dense than water. Hence floats on water. Emits acrid irritating fumes when heated to high temperature. Used to make other chemicals.

Potential Exposure

Used for making other chemicals

Shipping

UN2335 Allyl ethyl ether, Hazard Class: 3; Labels: 3-Flammable liquid, 6.1-Poisonous materials

Incompatibilities

May form explosive mixture with air. Incompatible with oxidizers (chlorates, nitrates, peroxides, permanganates, perchlorates, chlorine, bromine, fluorine, etc.); contact may cause fires or explosions. Keep away from alkaline materials, strong bases, strong acids, oxoacids, epoxides. Incompatible with strong acids. May form explosive peroxides during storage
