ANSUL ETHER 161 OR 181 Chemical compatibility with O-rings, rubbers, & plastics

Ansul Ether 161 and Ansul Ether 181 are proprietary ether-based solvents used in specialized industrial and chemical processing applications. Ethers, defined by an oxygen atom bonded to two alkyl or aryl groups, are widely utilized as solvents and synthesis intermediates. Because Ansul Ether 161 and Ansul Ether 181 can be highly flammable and irritating, evaluating compatibility with O-rings, rubber seals, and gaskets is essential. Proper storage, ventilation, and PPE use help protect rubber and plastic components from degradation.
