However, according to another scientific publication, MIC when heated in the gas-phase starts to break down to hydrogen cyanide ( HCN ) and other products above 400 ° C.
Laboratory replication studies by CSIR and UCC scientists failed to detect any HCN or HCN-derived side products.
HCN is also known to react with hydrochloric acid, ammonia, and methylamine ( also produced in tank 610 during the vigorous reaction with water and chloroform ) and also with itself under acidic conditions to form trimers of HCN called triazenes.
