| Solubility: Slightly soluble; In water, 8.8X10+3 mg/L at 25 ?; In water, 2700 mg/L; Soluble in ethanol; very soluble in ethyl ether; Soluble in carbon tetrachloride and benzene; Soluble in hydrocarbons, oil, chlorinated solvents, and most common organic solvents.; HIGH MOL WT UNMODIFIED PVC SOL IN: CYCLOHEXANONE; METHYL CYCLOHEXANONE; DIMETHYL FORMAMIDE; NITROBENZENE; TETRAHYDROFURAN; ISOPHORONE; MESITYL OXIDE; LOW MOL WT PVC POLYMERS SOL IN: DIPROPYL KETONE; METHYL AMYL KETONE; METHYL ISOBUTYL KETONE; ACETONYLACETONE; METHYL ETHYL KETONE; DIOXANE; METHYLENE CHLORIDE; Solubility in water, g/l at 25 ?: 1.1 (poor); Solubility in water: very poor; (77°F): 0.1% Stability: An unstable polyperoxide is apparently formed in vinyl chloride through oxidation by atmospheric oxygen in the presence of any of a variety of contaminants. Storage under these conditions for a long period increases the concentration of unstable polyperoxide to hazardous levels.; Long-term exposure to air may result in formation of peroxides that can initiate explosive polymerization of the chloride.; STABILIZERS ARE NECESSARY TO PREVENT DISCOLORATION FROM EXPOSURE TO LIGHT OR HEAT;AT ORDINARY TEMPERATURES IT MAY UNDERGO SLOW DEHALOGENATION WITH EVOLUTION OF HYDROGEN CHLORIDE Alfa Chemistry Materials product group: Polymer Science Manufacturer data sheet |
