ALKYL CHLORIDE Chemical compatibility with O-rings, rubbers, & plastics

Alkyl chlorides are organic compounds containing an alkyl group bonded to a chlorine atom. Examples include methyl chloride, ethyl chloride, and butyl chloride. These compounds are used as intermediates in the synthesis of various chemicals, solvents, and refrigerants. Alkyl chlorides are typically volatile and flammable, posing risks of inhalation and skin irritation. Proper handling, storage, and use of personal protective equipment (PPE) are essential to ensure safety.
