| | Hexafluoroacetone Usage And Synthesis |
| Chemical Properties | generally supplied as liquid under pressure | | General Description | Hexafluoroacetone is a colorless, toxic, and highly reactive gas. At ambient temperatures, Hexafluoroacetone is likely to generate a considerable amount of vapor. Hexafluoroacetone is an irritant to skin, eyes and mucous membranes and is toxic by ingestion, skin absorption, and inhalation. When heated to high temperatures Hexafluoroacetone emits toxic fluoride fumes. Prolonged exposure of the container to fire or intense heat may cause Hexafluoroacetone to violently rupture and rocket. Hexafluoroacetone is used in the production of other chemicals. | | Air & Water Reactions | Hygroscopic (i.e., absorbs moisture from the air); reacts with moisture to form a highly acidic sesquihydrate. . | | Reactivity Profile | Hexafluoroacetone is incompatible with the following: Water, acids [Note: Hygroscopic (i.e., absorbs moisture from the air); reacts with moisture to form a highly acidic sesquihydrate.] . | | Health Hazard | TOXIC; may be fatal if inhaled, ingested or absorbed through skin. Vapors are extremely irritating and corrosive. Contact with gas or liquefied gas may cause burns, severe injury and/or frostbite. Fire will produce irritating, corrosive and/or toxic gases. Runoff from fire control may cause pollution. | | Fire Hazard | Some may burn but none ignite readily. Vapors from liquefied gas are initially heavier than air and spread along ground. Some of these materials may react violently with water. Cylinders exposed to fire may vent and release toxic and/or corrosive gas through pressure relief devices. Containers may explode when heated. Ruptured cylinders may rocket. |
