# Reactive Hazards Analyzer Skill

## Purpose

The Reactive Hazards Analyzer Skill evaluates reactive chemical hazards including thermal stability, chemical incompatibilities, and runaway reaction potential using calorimetric data analysis.

## Capabilities

- Thermal stability assessment
- Chemical compatibility screening
- DSC/ARC data interpretation
- Adiabatic runaway analysis
- TMRad calculations
- Criticality assessment
- SADT determination
- Relief sizing for reactive systems

## Usage Guidelines

### When to Use
- Assessing reactive hazards
- Interpreting calorimetric data
- Designing reactive system safeguards
- Screening chemical incompatibilities

### Prerequisites
- Material safety data available
- Calorimetric test data (if available)
- Process conditions defined
- Reaction stoichiometry known

### Best Practices
