LINSEED OIL Chemical compatibility with O-rings, rubbers, & plastics

Linseed oil is a yellowish oil extracted from the seeds of the flax plant, used in various industrial and consumer applications. It is commonly employed as a drying oil in paints, varnishes, and wood finishes due to its ability to polymerize into a solid form. Linseed oil is also used in the production of linoleum, soaps, and as a nutritional supplement rich in omega-3 fatty acids. Despite its benefits, linseed oil can spontaneously combust when exposed to air, posing a fire hazard. Proper handling, storage, and safety measures are essential to prevent accidents. Containers should be kept tightly closed and stored in a cool, dry place.
