Specification: |
2-Pentene (CAS NO.646-04-8) is a clear colourless to slightly yellowish liquid with a hydrocarbon odor. It usually in technical grade as a mixture of isomers. It is highly flammable and insoluble in water. The unsaturated aliphatic hydrocarbons, such as 2-Pentene, are generally much more reactive than the alkanes. Strong oxidizers may react vigorously with them. Reducing agents can react exothermically to release gaseous hydrogen. In the presence of various catalysts (such as acids) or initiators, compounds in this class can undergo very exothermic addition polymerization reactions.
First Aid Measures:
Eyes: Flush eyes with plenty of water for at least 15 minutes, occasionally lifting the upper and lower eyelids. Get medical aid.
Skin: Get medical aid. Flush skin with plenty of water for at least 15 minutes while removing contaminated clothing and shoes.
