SECTION 10: Stability and reactivity
Reactivity
Reacts with strong oxidants. This generates fire and explosion hazard.
Chemical stability
no data available
Possibility of hazardous reactions
FLAMMABLE LIQUID WHEN EXPOSED TO HEAT OR FLAME.CYCLOHEXANOL ACETATE is an ester. Esters react with acids to liberate heat along with alcohols and acids. Strong oxidizing acids may cause a vigorous reaction that is sufficiently exothermic to ignite the reaction products. Heat is also generated by the interaction of esters with caustic solutions. Flammable hydrogen is generated by mixing esters with alkali metals and hydrides.
Conditions to avoid
no data available
Incompatible materials
no data available
Hazardous decomposition products
When heated to decomposition it emits acrid smoke and irritating fumes

Persistence and degradability
no data available
Bioaccumulative potential
An estimated BCF of 22 was calculated for cyclohexyl acetate(SRC), using an estimated log Kow of 2.64(1,SRC) and a regression-derived equation(2). According to a classification scheme(3), this BCF suggests the potential for bioconcentration in aquatic organisms is low(SRC).
Mobility in soil
The Koc of cyclohexyl acetate is estimated as 650(SRC), using an estimated log Kow of 2.64(1,SRC) and a regression-derived equation(2,SRC). According to a classification scheme(3), this estimated Koc value suggests that cyclohexyl acetate is expected to have low mobility in soil(SRC).
Other adverse effects
no data available
SECTION 13: Disposal considerations
Disposal methods
The material can be disposed of by removal to a licensed chemical destruction plant or by controlled incineration with flue gas scrubbing. Do not contaminate water, foodstuffs, feed or seed by storage or disposal. Do not discharge to sewer systems.
Containers can be triply rinsed (or equivalent) and offered for recycling or reconditioning. Alternatively, the packaging can be punctured to make it unusable for other purposes and then be disposed of in a sanitary landfill. Controlled incineration with flue gas scrubbing is possible for combustible packaging materials.

Other Information
Cyclohexylacetate is more narcotic and more lethal to animals at lower concentrations than other acetates but being of lower volatility, it is less hazardous from the industrial point of view.The relation between odour and the occupational exposure limit cannot be indicated.
