26638-19-7 Usage
Chemical Properties
Dichloropropane is a colorless stable liquid.
Sweet, chloroform-like odor. The odor threshold in air is
0.25 ppm.
General Description
Colorless liquid with a chloroform-like odor. Toxic by ingestion and inhalation.
Air & Water Reactions
Highly flammable. Insoluble in water
Reactivity Profile
Propane, dichloro- is incompatible with strong oxidizers, strong acids, active metals .
Health Hazard
May cause toxic effects if inhaled or absorbed through skin. Inhalation or contact with material may irritate or burn skin and eyes. Fire will produce irritating, corrosive and/or toxic gases. Vapors may cause dizziness or suffocation. Runoff from fire control or dilution water may cause pollution.
Fire Hazard
HIGHLY FLAMMABLE: Will be easily ignited by heat, sparks or flames. Vapors may form explosive mixtures with air. Vapors may travel to source of ignition and flash back. Most vapors are heavier than air. They will spread along ground and collect in low or confined areas (sewers, basements, tanks). Vapor explosion hazard indoors, outdoors or in sewers. Runoff to sewer may create fire or explosion hazard. Containers may explode when heated. Many liquids are lighter than water.
Potential Exposure
Dichloropropane is used as a chemical
intermediate in perchloroethylene and carbon tetrachloride
synthesis, and as a lead scavenger for antiknock fluids. It is
also used as a solvent for fats, oils, waxes, gums and resins;
and in solvent mixtures for cellulose esters and ethers.
Other applications include the use of dichloropropane; as a
fumigant, alone and in combination with dichloropropane,
as a scouring compound; and a metal degreasing agent.
It is also used as an insecticidal fumigant
Shipping
UN1279 1,2-Dichloropropane, Hazard Class: 3;
Labels: 3-Flammable liquid.
Incompatibilities
May form explosive mixture with air.
May accumulate static electrical charges, and may cause
ignition of its vapors. Contact with strong oxidizers,
powdered aluminum may cause fire and explosion hazard.
Strong acids can cause decomposition and the formation
of hydrogen chloride vapors. Reacts with strong bases;
o-dichlorobenzene, 1,2-dichloroethane. Corrosive to aluminum and its alloys. Attacks some plastics, rubber, and
coatings.
Check Digit Verification of cas no
The CAS Registry Mumber 26638-19-7 includes 8 digits separated into 3 groups by hyphens. The first part of the number,starting from the left, has 5 digits, 2,6,6,3 and 8 respectively; the second part has 2 digits, 1 and 9 respectively.
Calculate Digit Verification of CAS Registry Number 26638-19:
(7*2)+(6*6)+(5*6)+(4*3)+(3*8)+(2*1)+(1*9)=127
127 % 10 = 7
So 26638-19-7 is a valid CAS Registry Number.
