| | 1,2-Epoxyoctadecane Usage And Synthesis |
| Chemical Properties | white waxy solid | | Uses | 1,2-Epoxyoctadecane can be used to produce octadecane-1,2-diol at heating. It is used in agrochemical, pharmaceutical and dyestuff field . | | General Description | White waxy or chunky solid. | | Air & Water Reactions | 1,2-Epoxyoctadecane is sensitive to exposure to moisture. Insoluble in water. | | Reactivity Profile | 1,2-Epoxyoctadecane, an epoxide, is sensitive to exposure to moisture. 1,2-Epoxyoctadecane is incompatible with strong acids, caustics and peroxides. . Epoxides 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. | | Health Hazard | ACUTE/CHRONIC HAZARDS: 1,2-Epoxyoctadecane is a local irritant. | | Fire Hazard | Flash point data for 1,2-Epoxyoctadecane are not available, but 1,2-Epoxyoctadecane is probably combustible. |
