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

Sulfur is a yellow, crystalline non-metal with the chemical symbol S. It is widely used in various industrial and chemical applications, primarily in the production of sulfuric acid, fertilizers, and vulcanized rubber. Sulfur is also employed in the manufacturing of certain pharmaceuticals, pesticides, and explosives. In agriculture, sulfur is used as a soil conditioner and fungicide, improving soil health and protecting crops from fungal diseases. Proper handling and storage of sulfur are essential to prevent accidents and ensure safety, as it is flammable and can pose health risks if inhaled or ingested. Safety measures, including the use of appropriate protective equipment and adherence to handling protocols, are crucial when working with sulfur. Its versatility and effectiveness in various applications make sulfur a valuable element in numerous industries, although its use requires careful control to prevent hazards and ensure environmental and health safety.
