General Description
Pale yellow liquid with a mild odor. Floats on water. (USCG, 1999)
Hazards
Reactivity Alerts
none
Air & Water Reactions
No rapid reaction with air. No rapid reaction with water.
Fire Hazard
No information available.
Health Hazard
Contact with eyes causes mild inflammation. Contact with skin may produce allergic response. (USCG, 1999)
Reactivity Profile
OCTYL EPOXY TALLATE may attack plastics (USCG, 1999). 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.
