LACTAMS-AMINO ACIDS Chemical compatibility with O-rings, rubbers, & plastics

Lactams and amino acids are essential building blocks in the synthesis of various pharmaceuticals, agrochemicals, and polymers. Lactams are cyclic amides used in the production of nylon and other synthetic materials, while amino acids are organic compounds that form proteins and play crucial roles in biological processes. Both lactams and amino acids are valuable in chemical and biochemical synthesis. Despite their benefits, some lactams can be hazardous if inhaled, ingested, or absorbed through the skin. Proper handling, storage, and safety measures, including the use of personal protective equipment, are essential to ensure safe usage. Adequate ventilation and spill containment measures are also necessary to prevent exposure and accidents.
