1、Designation: E2012 06 (Reapproved 2012)Standard Guide forthe Preparation of a Binary Chemical Compatibility Chart1This standard is issued under the fixed designation E2012; the number immediately following the designation indicates the year oforiginal adoption or, in the case of revision, the year o

Asuperscript epsilon () indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.INTRODUCTIONThe purpose of this standard is to provide expert guidance to those interested in the task ofcompiling chemical comp

3、atibility (inter-reactivity) charts for the purposes of process safety andreactive chemicals hazard evaluation. This standard does not provide specific answers regarding theinter-reactivity of specific materials. However, it does provide a detailed framework for developingcharts based on the current

4、 best practices of the chemical industry and it directs the user to sourcesof reactivity information. It is the E27 Committees belief that inter-reactivity charts will beincreasingly used in industry for day-to-day operations, process hazard reviews, employee education,and emergency response. It is

5、our hope that this standard guide can be useful in that effort.1. Scope1.1 A binary chemical compatibility chart also called inter-reactivity chart, documents the hazards associated with themixing of pairs of materials. This guide provides an aid for thepreparation these charts. It reviews a number

Significance and Use5.1 Various United States governmental regulations forbidincompatible materials to be transported together and requirethat chemical reactiv

Binary compatibility chartsare useful teaching tools in general education, in the chemicalplant or laboratory, and for areas and operations where com-monly perform

These charts may provideguidance to terminal operators on DOT HM-183 that requiresthat materials on adjacent compartments of multicompartmenttank trucks are compatible. They provide documentation thatthe potential for inadvertent mixing as a potential source ofheat and

27、gas evolution from chemical reactions has beenconsidered in sizing relief devices. Compatibility charts serveas check lists for use during process hazard reviews, and thepreparation of the chart itself often brings attention to potentialhazards that were previously unknown.5.2 A binary chart only co

Considerincluding the following factors in the specification of themixing scenario, as they, and other factors, ma

31、y contribute tothe assignment of compatibility.6.1.1 Specific quantities of materials,6.1.2 Storage temperatures,6.1.3 Confinement (closed or open system),6.1.4 Atmosphere (air, nitrogen inerted), and6.1.5 The maximum time the materials may be in contact.6.2 Define Incompatibility Within the Scenari

32、oFrameworkAn effective chart should clearly convey thecriteria for defining two materials as incompatible. In a generalsense, chemical incompatibility implies that there may beundesirable consequences of mixing these materials at amacroscopic scale. These consequences might be, in a worstcase, a fas

33、t chemical reaction or an explosion, a release of toxicgas, or, in a less severe case, an undesirable temperature risethat might take the mixture above its flash point or cause anunacceptable pressure increase in the system. If, however, thetank where the mixing will occur is inerted with nitrogen,

34、andthe material has an acceptably low vapor pressure increase,then even this temperature rise might not pose a practicalproblem. Consequently, a working definition of incompatibilityneeds to be formulated before compatibility judgments can beeffectively and accurately made.6.2.1 Some examples of mix

35、ing scenarios and incompatibil-ity definitions include:6.2.1.1 Ambient temperature in summer, northern climate(approximately 25C); (5000 gal) scale; insulated, ventedstorage tank; storage time 7 days maximum, nitrogen paddedheadspace (chemical transport scenario). Materials consideredincompatible if

36、 temperature rise greater than 25C, or grassyreaction.6.2.1.2 Ambient temperature in a hotter, subtropical climate(approximately 40C), drum (55 gal) storage of mixed wastefor 3 months maximum. Materials considered incompatible ifthere could be a release from the drum.6.2.1.3 Room temperature, 4L (1

37、gal) bottles, looselycapped, 1 month maximum storage time (typical lab wastescenario). Materials considered icompatible if there is anevolution of flammable vapor, toxic gas, or a temperature risegreater than 10C.6.3 Compile Compatibility ChartThe following steps maybe followed for constructing the

38、compatibility chart (seeAppendix X2).6.3.1 State the ScenarioIn the preparation of a compat-ibility chart, consider stating both the scenario and thescenario-based definition of incompatibility explicitly on thechart.6.3.2 Decide on a Hazard Rating SchemeFormulate thereference scale for the individu

39、al degree of mixing hazard. Itmay be desirable to have a simple “yes/no” (that is,compatible/incompatible) scale. In some instances, ratings thatconvey more information may be advantageous. For example,a numerical score of 1, 2, and 3 might be appropriate with 1indicating a compatible mixture, 2 ind

40、icating a moderatehazard (for example, a temperature increase of 10C or less),and 3 indicating a severe hazard, such as polymerization orspontaneous combustion. Another example of a hazard ratingscheme is given in Table 1. Note that in the Table 1 example,the hazard rating scheme also conveys inform

41、ation aboutprocedures for emergency response, but this information neednot be included in the chart. The use of color (if available in thecharting tool) may also aid in understanding the chart. Forexample, green could indicate safe, compatible mixtures, redcould indicate reactive, incompatible mixtu

42、res. It is importantto avoid making the chart too complicated.6.3.3 Define the CategoriesDefining categories for thechart is an important part of chart construction. For smallplants and operations, each chemical may be included in thechart and the resulting chart may still be of manageable size.5The

43、 boldface numbers in parentheses refer to the list of references at the end ofthis standard.TABLE 1 An Example of Hazard Levels and Typical AssociatedEmergency Response ActionsHazardRatingHazard Level Suggested Emergency Response0 Minimal Report inadvertent mixing event to supervision; nofurther act

44、ion necessary.1 Caution Report event to supervision; implement plan(s) tomanage the situation; no emergency proceduresto be initiated.2 Danger Report event to supervision; prepare to initiate unitemergency plan if needed; notify personnel inimmediate area; consider halting normal activitiesuntil ext

45、ent of situation is fully assessed.E2012 06 (2012)3For more general compatibility charts, for example, for a largemanufacturing site, the chart may group chemicals into naturalclassifications based on their chemical structure. Examples ofthese groupings are: mineral acids, aliphatic amines,monomers,

46、 water-based formulations, halogenatedhydrocarbons, and so forth. One limitation with this manner ofchart construction is that for a number of classes, certain binarycombinations might be known to be compatible whereas othercombinations within the same two groups may not be. It maybe best to provide

47、 the worst case compatibility rating in theactual chart with a separate list of compatible exceptions. Itmay be prudent to include additional useful compatibilityinformation, such as compatibility of chemicals with materialsof construction, water (from process streams or from rain indiked areas), cl

48、eaning agents, sealants, and adsorbents. “Heat”might be considered as an entry to flag particularly heatsensitive materials such as polymerizable monomers. Consul-tation with a wide variety of personnel (management,engineers, operators, and so forth) may aid in the determinationof what materials are

49、 present at a site and which ones should beincluded in the chart.6.3.4 Consider the Hazards for all Binary CombinationsThe potential hazard for each and every binary mixture needsto be carefully considered. Avoid using blanks (empty cells) incompatibility charts since blanks may indicate that there is nohazard, or, simply that the hazard is unknown. Clearly distin-guishing between a non-hazard and an unknown hazard is animportant consideration. See Appendix X2 for sources ofcompatibility information.6.3.5 Document How the Decisions Are MadeBackup and
