Hazard Information | Back Directory | [General Description]
Colorless liquid with a faint odor of alcohol. Floats on water. | [Reactivity Profile]
PENTADECANOL is an alcohol. Flammable and/or toxic gases are generated by the combination of alcohols with alkali metals, nitrides, and strong reducing agents. They react with oxoacids and carboxylic acids to form esters plus water. Oxidizing agents convert them to aldehydes or ketones. Alcohols exhibit both weak acid and weak base behavior. They may initiate the polymerization of isocyanates and epoxides. | [Health Hazard]
Low toxicity. Excessive exposure produces some central nervous system depression. Prolonged contact produces skin irritation. | [Chemical Properties]
