10. STABILITY AND REACTIVITY
Stability: Stable under dry and normal conditions.
Polymerization: Will not occur.
Conditions To Avoid: Sparks, open flame, other ignition sources, and elevated temperatures.
Avoid high humidity. Contact with incompatible substances.
Incompatible Materials: Avoid contact with organic matter. Avoid contact with easily chlorinated or
oxidized materials which may result in fire. Avoid contact with ammonium salts, urea or similar
compounds which contain nitrogen. This may burn nitrogen trichloride, a highly explosive compound.
Avoid contamination with oils and greases which may cause decomposition with the formation of
CO2 and C12. This product may form an explosive mixture with calcium hypochlorite. In a
formulation containing this materials as the major component, alkaline materials such as soda ash
(Na2CO3) in the presence of moisture may cause violent decomposition and fire. Avoid contact with
alcohols, ethers, and solvents (toluene, xylene, turpentine, etc.) Avoid contact with small amounts of
water. (Do not add water to chemical, add chemical to water).
