2016年1月8日 · Trimethylaluminum earns the respect of everyone who handles it - and if it doesn't, then there's always next time. Any exposure to oxygen, moisture, and a whole list of other things will produce billowing masses of flame, a wildly exothermic reaction driven (as with thermite) by the formation of the corresponding way-down-there metal oxide.

2016年1月8日 · Dr. George Kondylls, an emergency room physician at Lawrence Memorial Hospital says the victims are suffering from burns related to the blast involving the chemical trimethylaluminum. Emergency...

Trimethylaluminium is one of the simplest examples of an organoaluminium compound. Despite its name it has the formula Al 2 (CH 3) 6 (abbreviated as Al 2 Me 6 or TMA), as it exists as a dimer. This colorless liquid is pyrophoric. It is an industrially important compound, closely related to triethylaluminium. [3][4]

2016年1月11日 · Five people were seriously injured in an explosion at a Dow Chemical plant in North Andover, Massachusetts, on Thursday afternoon. The blast involved the chemical trimethylaluminum, which is used to make LED lights and electronics. It is thought to have occurred when the chemical reacted with water or air.

2016年1月28日 · Trimethylaluminum — also known as trimethylalane or aluminium trimethyl — is a colorless liquid when in its purest form. Extremely dangerous and reactive, it is known for its exceptional degree of pyrophoricity. It catches fire and/or explodes when exposed to air or water, and is listed at Level 4 flammability on the NFPA fire diamond.

2016年1月11日 · Five workers were injured – four seriously – in a Jan. 7 explosion at a lab at the facility. According to reports, trimethylaluminum, a chemical that is used to make LED lights and electronics and is reactive with air and water, mixed with water and created a powerful reaction.

2017年3月31日 · The accident reportedly involved trimethylaluminum, a notoriously combustible chemical that can ignite when it comes into contact with moisture or oxygen. Fire department investigators found that the company was holding trimethylaluminum in metal containers with welds and gaskets that were “not regularly inspected.”

2016年11月1日 · Four workers were critically injured by an explosion at Dow Chemical ’s plant in North Andover, Massachusetts, USA, on Jan. 7. A fifth person was treated at the scene but was not seriously injured. The blast occurred in a lab and involved the chemical trimethylaluminum (TMA), which is said to have reacted with water.
