  2. HAZMAT Class 5 Oxidizing agents and organic peroxides

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/HAZMAT_Class_5_Oxidizing...

    HAZMAT 5.1 placard on a pail of UN 2468,Trichloroisocyanuric acid for use in swimming pools. An oxidizer is a material that may, generally by yielding oxygen, cause or enhance the combustion of other materials. A solid material is classed as a Division 5.1 material if, when tested in accordance with the UN Manual of Tests and Criteria, its mean ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hydrogen_peroxide

    Hydrogen peroxide is a chemical compound with the formula H 2 O 2.In its pure form, it is a very pale blue [5] liquid that is slightly more viscous than water.It is used as an oxidizer, bleaching agent, and antiseptic, usually as a dilute solution (3%–6% by weight) in water for consumer use and in higher concentrations for industrial use.

    I. 1. Instability 1: Normally stable, but can become unstable at elevated temperatures and pressures. E.g. calcium. code. I. 2. Instability 2: Undergoes violent chemical change at elevated temperatures and pressures, reacts violently with water, or may form explosive mixtures with water. E.g. white phosphorus.

  5. Peroxide - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Peroxide

    Peroxide. In chemistry, peroxides are a group of compounds with the structure R−O−O−R, where the R's represent a radical (a portion of a complete molecule; not necessarily a free radical [1]) and O's are single oxygen atoms. [2][3] Oxygen atoms are joined to each other and to adjacent elements through single covalent bonds, denoted by ...

  6. Diacetyl peroxide - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Diacetyl_peroxide

    Consisting of both an oxidizer, the O-O bond and reducing agents, the C-C and C-H bonds, diacetyl peroxide is shock sensitive and explosive. [8] [9] [2]The threshold quantity for Process Safety Management per Occupational Safety and Health Administration 1910.119 is 5,000 lb (2,300 kg) if the concentration of the diacetyl peroxide solution is greater than 70%.

  7. High-test peroxide - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/High-test_peroxide

    High-test peroxide (HTP) is a highly concentrated (85 to 98%) solution of hydrogen peroxide, with the remainder consisting predominantly of water. In contact with a catalyst, it decomposes into a high-temperature mixture of steam and oxygen, with no remaining liquid water. It was used as a propellant of HTP rockets and torpedoes, and has been ...

    Template documentation. This template produces a NFPA 704 safety square with optionally four hazard codes. It is designed to be used in a table. Primary use is through { { Chembox }}, the { { NFPA 704 }} box and { { OrganicBox complete }} (chemical data pages). When used stand-alone (outside of a table), consider the { { NFPA 704 }} box.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sodium_peroxide

    Sodium peroxide is an inorganic compound with the formula Na 2 O 2.This yellowish solid is the product of sodium ignited in excess oxygen. [3] It is a strong base. This metal peroxide exists in several hydrates and peroxyhydrates including Na 2 O 2 ·2H 2 O 2 ·4H 2 O, Na 2 O 2 ·2H 2 O, Na 2 O 2 ·2H 2 O 2, and Na 2 O 2 ·8H 2 O. [4] The octahydrate, which is simple to prepare, is white, in ...
