MANGANESE NAPHTHENATE Chemical compatibility with O-rings, rubbers, & plastics

Manganese naphthenate is a manganese salt of naphthenic acid, used in various industrial applications. It is employed as a drier in paints, varnishes, and inks, where it helps to accelerate the drying process by promoting oxidative polymerization. Manganese naphthenate is also used as a catalyst in chemical reactions and in the production of coatings and adhesives. Despite its utility, manganese naphthenate can cause skin, eye, and respiratory irritation if not handled properly. Proper handling, storage, and safety measures, including the use of personal protective equipment, are essential to ensure safe usage and prevent exposure. Adequate ventilation and spill containment measures are also necessary.
