ETHYLENE DIBROMIDE Chemical compatibility with O-rings, rubbers, & plastics

Ethylene dibromide, also known as 1,2-dibromoethane, is a colorless liquid with a sweet odor, represented by the chemical formula C2H4Br2. It is used as a fumigant, in the synthesis of certain chemicals, and as a gasoline additive. Ethylene dibromide is highly toxic and can cause severe skin and respiratory irritation upon exposure. Proper handling, storage, and the use of personal protective equipment (PPE) are essential to ensure safety.
