22. catalytic nature 3 Equipment capable of withstanding pressure When HHC solvents contact aluminum or galvanized parts inside a closed container such as a pump spray gun or fluid handling system the chemical reaction can over time result in a build up of heat and pressure which can reach explosive proportions When all three elements are present the result can be an extremely violent explosion The reaction can be sustained with very little aluminum or galvanized metal any amount of aluminum is too much B The reaction is unpredictable Prior use of an HHC solvent without incident corrosion or explosion does NOT mean that such use is safe These solvents can be dangerous alone as a clean up or flushing agent or when used as a component of a coating material There is no known inhibitor that is effective under all circumstances Furthermore the mixing of HHC solvents with other materials or solvents such as MEK alcohol and toluene may render the inhibitors ineffective C The use of reclaimed solvents is particularly hazardous Reclaimers may not add any inhibitors or may add incorrect amounts of inhibitors or may add improper types of inhibitors Also the possible presence of water in reclaimed solvents could feed the reaction D Anodized or other oxide coatings cannot be relied upon to prevent the explosive reaction Such coatings can be worn cracked scratched or too thin to prevent contact There is no known way to m
