PHORONE Chemical compatibility with O-rings, rubbers, & plastics

Phorone is an organic compound with the chemical formula C9H10O. It is a yellowish, oily liquid with a characteristic odor. Phorone is used as a solvent and intermediate in organic synthesis, particularly in the production of pesticides and pharmaceuticals. It is also utilized in the manufacture of resins and plastics. Phorone is highly flammable and can form explosive mixtures with air. It should be handled with care, avoiding exposure to heat, sparks, and open flames. Inhalation or ingestion of phorone can cause respiratory and gastrointestinal irritation, headache, dizziness, and central nervous system depression. Prolonged exposure may lead to liver and kidney damage. Protective equipment, including gloves and goggles, is recommended when working with phorone. Proper ventilation and storage in a cool, dry place are essential to minimize the risk of fire and health hazards.
