ABSTRACT

Thermal activity monitor (TAM) was employed to evaluate the thermal hazards during storing of CHP and CHP mixed with NaOH and H2SO4 under isothermal conditions, and obtained the thermokinetic parameters, such as time to maximum rate (TMR), the highest heat flow, and reaction time. NaOH is one of the incompatible chemicals or catalysts for CHP, depending on the process conditions. According to theDCPOmanufacturing process, DCPOproduced by the reaction of 80 mass% CHP, cumyl alcohol (CA),

and acid to manufacture DCPO. However, NaOH was employed to neutralize excessive acid. In parallel, 80 mass% CHP may mix with NaOH leading to incompatibly circumstances.
