What is Tetradecylbenzene?
Chemical properties
aromatic colourless liquid
General Description
Colorless liquid with a mild odor. Floats on water.
Air & Water Reactions
Insoluble in water.
Reactivity Profile
Vigorous reactions, sometimes amounting to explosions, can result from the contact between aromatic hydrocarbons, such as TETRADECYLBENZENE, and strong oxidizing agents. They can react exothermically with bases and with diazo compounds. Substitution at the benzene nucleus occurs by halogenation (acid catalyst), nitration, sulfonation, and the Friedel-Crafts reaction. May attack some forms of plastics [USCG, 1999].
Health Hazard
Ingestion may cause intestinal disturbances. Contact with eyes causes mild irritation.
