Chemical & Response Details
| Also known as | 3-CyclohexenyltrichlorosilaneCyclohex-3-enyltrichlorosilaneTrichlorocyclohexenylsilane |
| CAS Number | 10137-69-6 |
| Appearance | Colorless to pale yellow liquid with a pungent, acrid odor. Fuming in moist air due to hydrolysis reaction. |
| Flash Point | 88°C (190°F) |
| Boiling Point | 203°C (397°F) |
| Vapor Density | 7.8 (heavier than air) |
| Water Reactivity | Reacts violently with water, releasing HCl gas and heat. Do not use water directly on material. |
| Extinguishing | Dry chemical, CO2, dry sand; no water or aqueous agents |
| PPE | ⚠️ Level B minimum; SCBA required; chemical-resistant suit for spill response; avoid all contact |
| Isolation | ERG 156: isolate 25m all directions; spill: 50m day/100m night; fire: isolate 800m if tank/rail car involved |
Chemical details are general reference only. Always verify with current SDS, ERG, and SOP/SOG.
Common hazards (high level)
- Combustible material: may burn but does not ignite readily.
- Substance will react with water (some violently) releasing flammable, toxic or corrosive gases and runoff.
- When heated, vapors may form explosive mixtures with air: indoors, outdoors and sewers explosion
- Most vapors are heavier than air. They will spread along the ground and collect in low or confined areas
- Vapors may travel to source of ignition and flash back.
- Corrosives in contact with metals may evolve flammable hydrogen gas.
- Containers may explode when heated or if contaminated with water.
- TOXIC and/or CORROSIVE; inhalation, ingestion or contact (skin, eyes) with vapors, dusts or substance
First actions (field-minded)
- CALL 911. Then call emergency response telephone number on shipping paper. If shipping paper
- Keep unauthorized personnel away.
- Stay upwind, uphill and/or upstream.
- Ventilate closed spaces before entering, but only if properly trained and equipped.
- Isolate spill or leak area in all directions for at least 50 meters (150 feet) for liquids and at least 25 meters
- For highlighted materials: see Table 1 - Initial Isolation and Protective Action Distances.
- For non-highlighted materials: increase the immediate precautionary measure distance, in the downwind
