SODIUM RESINATE

General Description

SODIUM RESINATE is a white amorphous powder. SODIUM RESINATE may spontaneously heat in the presence of air and moisture. This heat may be sufficient to ignite nearby combustible material. SODIUM RESINATE is soluble in water.

Air & Water Reactions

Highly flammable. SODIUM RESINATE will spontaneously heat in the presence of air and moisture. This heat may be sufficient to ignite surrounding combustible materials [AAR 1991].

Reactivity Profile

Inorganic reducing agents, such as SODIUM RESINATE, react with oxidizing agents to generate heat and products that may be flammable, combustible, or otherwise reactive. Their reactions with oxidizing agents may be violent.

Health Hazard

Fire may produce irritating and/or toxic gases. Contact may cause burns to skin and eyes. Contact with molten substance may cause severe burns to skin and eyes. Runoff from fire control may cause pollution.

Fire Hazard

Flammable/combustible material. May be ignited by friction, heat, sparks or flames. Some may burn rapidly with flare burning effect. Powders, dusts, shavings, borings, turnings or cuttings may explode or burn with explosive violence. Substance may be transported in a molten form at a temperature that may be above its flash point. May re-ignite after fire is extinguished.
