CHLOROBENZENE Chemical compatibility with O-rings, rubbers, & plastics

Chlorobenzene, also known as monochlorobenzene or phenyl chloride, is a colorless aromatic liquid with a mild almond-like odor and the formula C6H5Cl. It is widely used as a solvent and as an intermediate in the production of pesticides, dyes, and other specialty chemicals. Chlorobenzene is toxic and may cause significant skin and respiratory irritation. When evaluating compatibility with O-rings, rubber seals, gaskets, and plastic components, resistance to aromatic hydrocarbons is critical. Proper storage, ventilation, and PPE are required to ensure safety and reliable rubber sealing performance.
