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

Ethers are a class of organic compounds characterized by an oxygen atom connected to two alkyl or aryl groups. They are used as solvents, anesthetics, and in the manufacture of various chemicals. Ethers are highly flammable and can cause skin and respiratory irritation upon exposure. Proper handling, storage, and the use of personal protective equipment (PPE) are essential to ensure safety when working with these chemicals.
