PARA-CHLOROPHENOL Chemical compatibility with O-rings, rubbers, & plastics

Para-chlorophenol is a chlorinated aromatic compound with the chemical formula C6H5ClO. It is a white crystalline solid with a strong phenolic odor, used primarily as an intermediate in the production of disinfectants, pesticides, and pharmaceuticals. Para-chlorophenol exhibits antimicrobial properties, making it effective in formulations for preserving wood and other materials. It is also used in the synthesis of dyes and rubber chemicals. Handling requires strict safety measures due to its toxicity and potential environmental impact. It can cause skin and respiratory irritation upon exposure.
