Methomyl is a white crystalline solid with a melting point of 77 °C. It is soluble in water and in many organic solvents. It is stable at temperatures up to 140 °C; the autoignition temperature is 265 °C. Methomyl is stable ...

Bromadiolone is a white to off-white powder. Its solubility in water is very low (less than 20 mg/litre at 20 °C). It is slightly soluble in ethanol and ethyl acetate, and soluble in dimethylformamide. The flash-point ...

Diflubenzuron is an odourless, white, crystalline solid. It is almost insoluble in water and poorly soluble in apolar organic solvents. In polar to very polar solvents, the solubility is moderate to good, e.g., in acetone ...

Hydroquinone is a white crystalline substance when pure and is highly soluble in water. Hydroquinone is combustible when preheated. It is a reducing agent that is reversibly oxidized to semiquinone and quinone.

Ammonia is a colourless acrid-smelling gas at room temperature and normal atmospheric pressure. Most people can identify its odour at 35 mg/rn3 in air. It can be stored and transported as a liquid at a pressure of 10 ...

Dimethylformamide (DMF) is a colourless liquid with only a slight, unpleasant odour; smell is, therefore, not a useful warning signal. DMF is usually stable but, when it comes into contact with strong oxidizers, halogens, ...

Barium is an alkaline earth metal that occurs in nature in a combined form. It is present in rocks, minerals, soils, air, natural waters, and fossil fuels. Some barium salts (e.g., acetate, nitrate, and chloride) are quite ...

Pure paraquat salts are white and the technical products, yellow. They are crystalline, odourless, hygroscopic powders. Paraqual is slightly soluble in alcohol and practically insoluble in organic solvents. Paraquat is ...

Mirex is a white crystalline, odourless solid with a melting point of 485 °C. It is soluble in several organic solvents including tetrahydrofuran (30%), carbon disulfide (18%), chloroform (17%), and benzene (12%), but is ...

Commercial 1,3-dichioropropene is a mixture of cis- and trans- isomers and 92% pure. It may also be used in admixtures with 1 ,2-dibromoethane (Dorloe) or with 1 ,2dichloropropane (D-D , soil fumigant; Nemex Telone , and ...
