Hazard Predictions
- Generates gas: Reaction liberates gaseous products and may cause pressurization
- Generates heat: Exothermic reaction at ambient temperatures (releases heat)
Isocyanates can react exothermically with strong bases; the reaction is self-accelerating, and produces non-toxic CO2 gas, which can cause overpressurization (Richter, R.H., R.D. Priester, Jr. 2000. Isocyanates, Organic. In Kirk-Othmer Encyclopedia of Chemical Technology. John Wiley & Sons, Inc. (Online)).
Potential Gas Byproducts
- Carbon Dioxide (CO2)
