General Description
Oily light brown liquid with the odor of kerosene. Less dense than water and insoluble in water. Hence floats on water. (USCG, 1999)
Hazards
Reactivity Alerts
none
Air & Water Reactions
Flammable. Insoluble in water.
Fire Hazard
No information available.
Health Hazard
Vapor causes slight irritation of eyes and nose. Liquid irritates stomach; if taken into lungs, causes coughing, distress, and rapidly developing edema. (USCG, 1999)
Reactivity Profile
Saturated aliphatic hydrocarbons, which are contained in OIL, [SPRAY], may be incompatible with strong oxidizing agents like nitric acid. Charring of the hydrocarbon may occur followed by ignition of unreacted hydrocarbon and other nearby combustibles. In other settings, aliphatic saturated hydrocarbons are mostly unreactive. They are not affected by aqueous solutions of acids, alkalis, most oxidizing agents, and most reducing agents. When heated sufficiently or when ignited in the presence of air, oxygen or strong oxidizing agents, they burn exothermically to produce carbon dioxide and water. May be ignited by strong oxidizers.
