decene Chemical Properties,Usage,Production

General Description

A clear colorless liquid. Less dense than water. Insoluble in water. Flash point near 105°F. Used to make pharmaceuticals and other chemicals.

Air & Water Reactions

Flammable. Insoluble in water.

Reactivity Profile

DECENE may react vigorously with strong oxidizing agents. May react exothermically with reducing agents to release hydrogen gas. Can undergo exothermic polymerization reactions in the presence of various catalysts (such as acids) or initiators. May undergo autoxidation upon exposure to the air to form explosive peroxides. Violent explosions at low temperatures in ammonia synthesis gas units have been traced to the addition products of unsaturated hydrocarbons and nitrogen dioxide [Bretherick 1995].

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 or dilution water may cause pollution.
