colourless viscous liquid | [General Description]
Clear colorless liquid. | [Air & Water Reactions]
Insoluble in water. | [Reactivity Profile]
Organophosphates, such as trioctyl phosphate, are susceptible to formation of highly toxic and flammable phosphine gas in the presence of strong reducing agents such as hydrides. Partial oxidation by oxidizing agents may result in the release of toxic phosphorus oxides. trioctyl phosphate is probably combustible. Producing noxious gases, i.e. phosphine, phosphorus oxides.. | [Health Hazard]
ACUTE/CHRONIC HAZARDS: trioctyl phosphate is a cholinesterase inhibitor. | [Fire Hazard]
trioctyl phosphate is probably combustible. |
