SECTION 10: Stability and reactivity
Reactivity
Decomposes on heating and on contact with acids, bases and oxidants. This produces flammable formaldehyde.
Chemical stability
Stable, cyclic trimer of formaldehyde
Possibility of hazardous reactions
MODERATE FIRE RISK.Dust explosion possible if in powder or granular form, mixed with air. If dry, it can be charged electrostatically by swirling, pneumatic transport, pouring, etc.1,3,5-TRIOXANE is stable under normal laboratory conditions but is unstable in the presence of acids, which initiate polymerization. Sublimes readily. May react with oxidizing matter (NTP, 1992). A stable polymeric product of formaldehyde that in the presence of strong aqueous acids will depolymerize (reforming the parent formaldehyde). Inert to strong alkalis. Readily converted in non aqueous solutions to the monomeric formaldehyde by small concentrations of acid---the rate of conversion is directly proportional to the concentration of the acid.
