butylacid phosphate Usage And Synthesis

Description

Butyl acid phosphate is a clear white liquid.Molecular weight=153.08; Flash point=110 ℃. HazardIdentification (based on NFPA-704 M Rating System):Health 2, Flammability 1, Reactivity 1. Insoluble in water.Potential Exposure: It is used in industrial chemicalsmanufacture.

Chemical Properties

Water-white liquid.Soluble in alcohol, acetone, and toluene; insoluble in water and petroleum naphtha. Com- bustible.

Uses

Esterification catalyst and polymerizing agent, curing catalyst and accelerator in resins and coat- ings, special detergents.

General Description

A colorless liquid. Insoluble in water. Density about 9.4 lb / gal. Corrosive to metals and tissues. Flash point of 230°F.

Air & Water Reactions

Insoluble in water.

Reactivity Profile

Organophosphates are susceptible to formation of highly toxic and flammable phosphine gas in the presence of strong reducing agents such as hydrides. Partial oxidation by oxidizing agents may result in the release of toxic phosphorus oxides.

Hazard

Strong irritant to skin and tissue.

Health Hazard

TOXIC; inhalation, ingestion or skin contact with material may cause severe injury or death. Contact with molten substance may cause severe burns to skin and eyes. Avoid any skin contact. Effects of contact or inhalation may be delayed. Fire may produce irritating, corrosive and/or toxic gases. Runoff from fire control or dilution water may be corrosive and/or toxic and cause pollution.

Fire Hazard

Combustible material: may burn but does not ignite readily. When heated, vapors may form explosive mixtures with air: indoors, outdoors and sewers explosion hazards. Contact with metals may evolve flammable hydrogen gas. Containers may explode when heated. Runoff may pollute waterways. Substance may be transported in a molten form.

Flammability and Explosibility

Non flammable

Safety Profile

Toxic and corrosive. Combustible when exposed to heat or flame. When heated to decomposition it emits highly toxic fumes of POX,. See also ESTERS and PHOSPHORIC ACID

Potential Exposure

Butyl acid phosphate is a clear white liquid. Molecular weight 5 153.08; Flash point 5 110C. Hazard identification (based on NFP A-704M Rating System): Health 2; flammability 1; reactivity 1 ?. Insoluble in water. Potential Exposure: It is used in industrial chemicals manufacture

First aid

If this chemical gets into the eyes, remove anycontact lenses at once and irrigate immediately for at least15 min, occasionally lifting upper and lower lids. Seek medical attention immediately. If this chemical contacts theskin, remove contaminated clothing and wash immediatelywith soap and water. Seek medical attention immediately. Ifthis chemical has been inhaled, remove from exposure,begin rescue breathing (using universal precautions, including resuscitation mask) if breathing has stopped and CPR ifheart action has stopped. Transfer promptly to a medicalfacility. When this chemical has been swallowed, get medical attention. If victim is conscious, administer water ormilk. Do not induce vomiting. If pulmonary edema develops from high exposure, medical observation is recommended for 24-48 h

storage

Color Code—White: Corrosive or Contact Hazard;Store separately in a corrosion-resistant location. Store intightly closed containers is a cool, well-ventilated areaaway from potentially high-heat sources.

Shipping

UN1718 Butyl acid phosphate, Hazard class: 8; Labels: 8—Corrosive material. UN326 Corrosive liquid, acidic, organic, n.o.s.; Hazard class: 8; Labels: 8— Corrosive material, technical name required

Incompatibilities

Organophosphates are susceptible to formation of highly toxic and flammable phosphine gas in the presence of strong reducing agents such as hydrideds and active metals. Partial oxidation by oxidizing agents may result in the release of toxic phosphorus oxides 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
