10. STABILITY AND REACTIVITY
CHEMICAL STABILITY: Thermally stable at typical use temperatures.
CONDITIONS TO AVOID: Avoid use temperatures above 450F, 232C. Product can degrade
at elevated temperatures. Generation of gas during decomposition can cause pressure in closed
systems.
INCOMPATIBILITY WITH OTHER MATERIALS: Avoid contact with oxidizing materials. Avoid
contact with strong acids
HAZARDOUS DECOMPOSITION PRODUCTS: Hazardous decomposition products depend upon
temperature, air supply and the presence of other materials.
HAZARDOUS POLYMERIZATION: Will not occur.
