1-HYDROXY-1'-HYDROPEROXY DICYCLOHEXYL PEROXIDE

Odorless thick white liquid. Sinks in water. (USCG, 1999)

• Explosive
• Strong Oxidizing Agent

No rapid reaction with air. No rapid reaction with water.

Behavior in Fire: May explode (USCG, 1999)

Irritates eyes and skin on contact. Ingestion causes irritation of mouth and stomach. (USCG, 1999)

Peroxides, such as 1-HYDROXY-1'-HYDROPEROXY DICYCLOHEXYL PEROXIDE, are good oxidizing agents. Organic compounds can ignite on contact with concentrated peroxides. Strongly reduced material such as sulfides, nitrides, and hydrides may react explosively with peroxides. There are few chemical classes that do not at least produce heat when mixed with peroxides. Many produce explosions or generate gases (toxic and nontoxic). Generally, dilute solutions of peroxides (<70%) are safe, but the presence of a catalyst (often a transition metal such as cobalt, iron, manganese, nickel, or vanadium) as an impurity may even then cause rapid decomposition, a buildup of heat, and even an explosion. Solutions of peroxides often become explosive when evaporated to dryness or near-dryness. May explode from heat or contamination. May ignite combustibles (wood, paper, oil, clothing, etc.). May be ignited by heat, sparks or flames. May burn rapidly with flare-burning effect. Behavior in Fire: May explode (USCG, 1999).

Excerpt from 146 [Organic Peroxides (Heat, Contamination and Friction Sensitive)]:

IMMEDIATE PRECAUTIONARY MEASURE: Isolate spill or leak area in all directions for at least 50 meters (150 feet) for liquids and at least 25 meters (75 feet) for solids.

LARGE SPILL: Consider initial evacuation for at least 250 meters (800 feet) in all directions.

FIRE: If tank, rail car or tank truck is involved in a fire, ISOLATE for 800 meters (1/2 mile) in all directions; also, consider initial evacuation for 800 meters (1/2 mile) in all directions. (ERG, 2020)

Fire Extinguishing Agents: Water, foam, dry chemical, carbon dioxide (USCG, 1999)

Excerpt from 146 [Organic Peroxides (Heat, Contamination and Friction Sensitive)]:

ELIMINATE all ignition sources (no smoking, flares, sparks or flames) from immediate area. Keep combustibles (wood, paper, oil, etc.) away from spilled material. Do not touch damaged containers or spilled material unless wearing appropriate protective clothing. Keep substance wet using water spray. Stop leak if you can do it without risk.

SMALL SPILL: Pick up with inert, damp, non-combustible material using clean, non-sparking tools and place into loosely covered plastic containers for later disposal.

LARGE SPILL: Wet down with water and dike for later disposal. Prevent entry into waterways, sewers, basements or confined areas. DO NOT CLEAN-UP OR DISPOSE OF, EXCEPT UNDER SUPERVISION OF A SPECIALIST. (ERG, 2020)

Goggles or face shield; rubber gloves; protective clothing. (USCG, 1999)

No information available.

EYES: flush with water for at least 15 min.; get medical attention.

SKIN: wipe off and wash with soap and water; get medical attention if irritation occurs.

INGESTION: induce vomiting; get medical attention. (USCG, 1999)
