Acetic acid vapors may ignite on contact with KOtBu (Manwaring, R. et al. 1973. Chemistry and Industry 172).
Formic acid reacts exothermically with bases (Reutemann, W. 2002. Formic Acid. In Ullmann's Encyclopedia of Industrial Chemistry. Wiley-VCH Verlag GmbH & Co. KGaA. (Online)).
Acetic acid reacts violently with KOH (MCA Case History No. 920, Case Histories of Accidents in the Chemical Industry, Washington, Manufacturing Chemists' Association, 1963).
Bases may react with carboxylic acids to liberate acid and/or base fumes (Predicted).
Potential Gas Byproducts
- Acid Fumes
- Base Fumes
