| [Safety Profile]
Poison by ingestion. A
severe eye irritant. Flammable when exposed
to heat or flame; can react with oxidizing
materials. To fight fire, use CO2, dry
chemical. When heated to decomposition it
emits acrid smoke and irritating fumes. |
Hazard Information | Back Directory | [General Description]
A water-white liquid. More dense than water. Flash point 200°F. May be toxic by ingestion. Used in embalming fluids. | [Reactivity Profile]
ETHYLENE GLYCOL DIFORMATE(629-15-2) reacts exothermically with acids. With strong oxidizing acids; the heat may ignite the reaction products. Also reacts exothermically with basic solutions. Generates hydrogen with with strong reducing agents (alkali metals, hydrides). | [Air & Water Reactions]
Soluble in water. | [Hazard]
Toxic by ingestion. | [Health Hazard]
Inhalation or contact with material may irritate or burn skin and eyes. Fire may produce irritating, corrosive and/or toxic gases. Vapors may cause dizziness or suffocation. Runoff from fire control or dilution water may cause pollution. | [Chemical Properties]
Water-white liquid.
hydrolyzes slowly, liberating formic acid. Soluble
in water, alcohol and ether. Combustible. | [Flammability and Explosibility]
