Hexanedioic acid dihexyl ester Usage And Synthesis
General Description
Colorless liquid. Floats on water.
Reactivity Profile
Hexanedioic acid dihexyl ester is an ester. Esters react with acids to liberate heat along with alcohols and acids. Strong oxidizing acids may cause a vigorous reaction that is sufficiently exothermic to ignite the reaction products. Heat is also generated by the interaction of esters with caustic solutions. Flammable hydrogen is generated by mixing esters with alkali metals and hydrides.
Health Hazard
Exposure can cause irritation of eyes, nose and throat.
Fire Hazard
Special Hazards of Combustion Products: Irritating vapors and toxic gases, such as carbon dioxide and carbon monoxide, may be formed when involved in fire.
Flammability and Explosibility
Nonflammable
