Nitroglycerin Chemical Properties, Usage, Production
General Description:
Colorless to pale-yellow, viscous liquid or solid (below 56°F). (Note: An
explosive ingredient in dynamite (20-40%) with ethylene glycol dinitrate
(80-60%).).
Air & Water Reactions
Highly flammable.
Reactivity Profile
Nitroalkanes,
Packing: N/A
Explosive Liquid
Incompatibilities & Reactivities ::
Heat, ozone, shock, acids [Note: An OSHA Class A Explosive (1910.109).]
Reactivity Profile:
Nitroalkanes, such as NITROGLYCERIN, range from slight to strong oxidizing
agents. If mixed with reducing agents, including hydrides, sulfides and
nitrides, they may begin a vigorous reaction that culminates in a
detonation. Nitroalkanes are milder oxidizing agents, but still react
violently with reducing agents at higher temperature and pressures.
Nitroalkanes react with inorganic bases to form explosive salts. The
presence of metal oxides increases the thermal sensitivity of nitroalkanes.
Nitroalkanes with more than one nitro group are generally explosive.
Nitroalkanes are insoluble in water. Flammable/combustible material. May be
ignited by heat, sparks or flames. Nitroglycerin is incompatible with the
following: Heat, ozone, shock, acids. Note: An OSHA Class A Explosive
(1910.109). .
Health Hazard:
Inhalation or contact with material may irritate or burn skin and eyes. Fire
may produce irritating, corrosive and/or toxic gases. Vapors may cause
dizziness or suffocation. Runoff from fire control 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.

The Controlled Substances Act (CSA) was enacted into law by the
Congress of the United States as Title II of the Comprehensive Drug
Abuse Prevention and Control Act of 1970.[1] The CSA is the federal
U.S. drug policy under which the manufacture, importation,
possession, use and distribution of certain substances is regulated.
The Act also served as the national implementing legislation for the
Single Convention on Narcotic Drugs |
