METHYL-2-PYRROLIDONE OR N-METHYL-2-PYRROLIDONE Chemical compatibility with O-rings, rubbers, & plastics

Methyl 2-pyrrolidone, commonly known as N-methyl-2-pyrrolidone or NMP, is a colorless to pale yellow liquid with the chemical formula C5H9NO widely used as a powerful solvent in industrial and chemical processing. It is frequently used for dissolving polymers, resins, and coatings and serves as an intermediate in the manufacture of pharmaceuticals, agrochemicals, and electronic materials. Exposure to NMP may cause irritation to the skin, eyes, and respiratory system. In equipment containing this solvent, O-rings, rubber seals, gaskets, and plastic components should be evaluated for chemical compatibility, as strong solvents can affect certain rubber materials. Proper handling, storage, ventilation, and protective practices are recommended.
