General Description

Crystals.

Air & Water Reactions

Insoluble in water.

Reactivity Profile

Simple aromatic halogenated organic compounds, such as 2,2'-DICHLOROBIPHENYL, are very unreactive. Reactivity generally decreases with increased degree of substitution of halogen for hydrogen atoms. Materials in this group may be incompatible with strong oxidizing and reducing agents. Also, they may be incompatible with many amines, nitrides, azo/diazo compounds, alkali metals, and epoxides.

Health Hazard

ACUTE/CHRONIC HAZARDS: When heated to decomposition, 2,2'-DICHLOROBIPHENYL emits toxic fumes.

Fire Hazard

Flash point data for 2,2'-DICHLOROBIPHENYL are not available. 2,2'-DICHLOROBIPHENYL is probably combustible.
