Abstract
Undesired reactions of organic substances as sources of danger in chemical plant. In chemical production processes, danger can arise both from the intended exothermal reaction and from unintended exothermal reactions. Such “undesired” reactions may be exothermal reactions of the substances themselves (e.g. decomposition, polymerization) or reactions of the substances involved with one another (e. g. of a reactant with the solvent). Differential thermal analysis and warm storage have been successfully used in various modifications as experimental methods for the study of such reactions. For exothermal decomposition reactions, correlations can be made between the chemical constitution of the substances and the energy released on decomposition, as well as the temperature of incipient decomposition. In mixtures with other substances a modified decomposition behaviour must be expected, usually of such a kind that the temperature range of decomposition is lowered. There are many possible exothermal reactions of substances with one another; only a few have hitherto been studied in detail.Keywords
