Materials and conditions to avoid (incompatibility) are: Avoid high temperatures. Containers may burst. Corrosive to most metals, concrete, some plastics, some rubber and coatings. Fumes forms droplets which settle and promote corrosion of metals and unprotected equipment. Mixing with strong acids can cause evolution of hydrogen chloride gas. Oxidizing agents will cause the release of toxic chlorine gas. Contact of liquid acid or gas with alkali or active metal may develop enough heat to cause fire in adjacent combustible material.
